This table lists the historical timeline of the records for the largest Smash tournament of all time overall.


Note: Due to a lack of verifiable data, records from 2003 and earlier remain unclear. Notably, there are claims that {{Trn|IVGF NorthWest Regionals}} had 151 entrants, which would have made it the largest Smash tournament until {{Trn|MELEE-FC3}}, but due to the lack of definitive sources to verify that number, it is excluded from this list. {{Trn|Tournament Go 4}} and {{Trn|Tournament Go 5}} could have each also possibly held the record for largest Smash tournament in their time with their purported entrant count of up to around 90, but they remain similarly excluded from this list for their exact attendance being unverifiable.

Note that while NEW GAME PLUS started on December 7th, ''Ultimate'' singles started on December 8th. This is also by far the fastest a Smash game has had a tournament with 100 entrants or more post-release, only a day after its launch on December 7th, 2018. Although [[EVO 2015]] and [[EVO 2016]] broke entrant records simultaneously in different games, this is the first time a record has been held on the same day within one game.

It was the first Smash tournament to break 3,000 entrants. EVO 2019 also broke the record by the largest margin out of any largest Smash tournament record, with over 1,300 more than the last record. It has held the record for the largest ''Ultimate'' tournament for the longest time, coincidentally passing GENESIS 6 on the same day one year after GENESIS 6 was held. It has also held the record for the largest Smash tournament in the series overall for the longest time. It was the largest tournament before DLC fighters finished releasing.

Don't Park on the Grass 2018 was one of the first national ''Ultimate'' tournaments. With Umebura SP the following day, or because of Don't Park on the Grass 2018's and Umebura SP's ''Ultimate'' singles starting eight and a half hours apart due to time zones, this is the shortest time a tournament has held the record for the largest Smash tournament out of any game.
