How many people can I have on StreamYard?

When someone joins your StreamYard studio using the invite link as a guest, they first enter the "backstage" area. Here, they can see and hear everything happening on-stage, but will not be visible or audible on stream or to any other studio participants.

Once you mouse over a guest's backstage thumbnail, and click Add to stage, they will then appear "on-screen" and be visible/audible to all studio participants and viewers of your stream.

The amount of people you can have "backstage" and "on-screen" varies per plan. If you have extra people backstage that cannot fit on-screen, you are able to swap these people in and out of your show by removing someone from the stage, and adding the backstage participant in their place. The total amount of participants you can have in the studio (including the host) is the same as the max backstage participants.
