YouTube Rewind (stylized as YouTube ЯEWIND) was an annual video series that was produced by YouTube and Portal A Interactive from 2010 to 2019. The videos were summaries of each year's viral videos, events, trends, and music.[8] The series' annual installments were uploaded onto YouTube's official channel.

The 2018 installment of the series, YouTube Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind, was panned by critics, YouTubers and viewers alike, garnering over 10 million dislikes in its first two weeks, and becoming the most disliked video of all time on YouTube. The next installment, YouTube Rewind 2019: For the Record, also had a poor reception from viewers. YouTube forwent producing a Rewind installment for 2020, and announced the following year that the series would be discontinued.
