The numbers for Kanye West‘s Sunday Service are officially in … and an astounding 50,000 festival-goers woke up early to go and watch the ceremony.
Coachella production sources tell TMZ organizers just tallied everyone who attended … and it more than surpassed expectations. We’re told over 50k were there … with an A-list guest list that included the entire Kardashian family, Chance The Rapper, Donald Glover, Lizzo, Kid Cudi, DMX and more.
Kanye’s Sunday Service started right around 9 AM on a massive man-made mountain in the Coachella campground and lasted for a couple of hours.
Not only did Kanye and his choir perform numerous Gospel songs, he also debuted a new track called “Water” and played classics like “Jesus Walks.”
The event — a culmination of Sunday Service performances from the past several weeks — stole the show this weekend … and reviews have been insanely positive.

In a touching moment at the end of the show, Kanye was seen hugging Marcus Hyde, the family’s former photographer who nearly lost his life in a horrible car accident last year, as well as his mother.
Coachella averages about 100k total attendees every weekend, so for half to show up just for ‘Ye is a really big deal.
