An example of a "Sidemen Sunday" video.

Sidemen Sunday (#sidemensunday) is a YouTube series on the official Sidemen channel. These videos have been uploaded weekly since 2018 and (or sometimes) feature all seven Sidemen. The videos are all of a wide variety of genres.

Usually, these videos are released between 6pm - 8pm GMT, however there have been a few times when videos are released earlier or later than this due to events/editing problems.

Since the first week of 2018, the Sidemen have uploaded one video every single week to this channel, until March 2019, when a week was missed, and a week in April 2023 when JJ received backlash for the use of a racial slur towards Pakistani descents in the Sidemen Sunday before that week which was soon deleted less than 24 hours after it was published leaving many fans with 2 weeks without a Sidemen Sunday.

The Sidemen began uploading the series every Sunday early this year. The first few weeks featured some content that was similar to what they have done on their respective channels (Reactions, Football challenges, Podcasts etc.). They also had some collaborations with Jack Whitehall, RackaRacka, JME & other YouTubers (Callux, Calfreezy, Stephen Tries among others). It also marked the debut of Folabi, a fictional character created by JJ, and the growing popularity of Phil.

The year is also remembered for its Family Fortunes video that led to drama between Deji and Randolph, and later between Deji and JJ.[1]

In 2021 rumours spread about a collaboration between the Sidemen and Logan Paul which resulted in the "Sidemen Extreme Fishing" video with Logan Paul. 2021 was also the year in which the Sidemen were able to travel again. This led to another video abroad "Sidemen Pub Golf Europe Edition" where the boys got to go back to Benidorm. The city in Spain was the same place previously visited by half of the sidemen during the most watched Sidemen video ever;"Sidemen $20,000 vs $200 Holiday Europe Edition". The third instalment of "Tinder In Real Life" was also released in 2021 and is currently their third most viewed video ever.
