Summary/Abstract: This article discusses Muhammadiyah and Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) as two influential Islamic organizations in Indonesia. This study attempts to assess the impact of followers, particularly millennials, on the contestation dynamics of Muhammadiyah and NU in online media. This study uses a qualitative approach by using online media as a data source and NVivo 12 as a data analysis tool. By using this methodology, the author intends to conduct a more thorough analysis of case studies. Thus, by employing the ideas of contestation and followership, this article seeks to trace the involvement of millennial followers in cancelling a Preaching in the context of NU's 94th anniversary (Anniversary) in 2020 at the Gedhe Kauman mosque in Yogyakarta. This study reveals that the contestation of Muhammadiyah and NU in the cancellation of Preaching in the context of the 94th NU Anniversary in 2020 at Kauman reveals a map of attitudinal responses, positive and negative sentiments of followership, particularly millennial followers of Muhammadiyah and NU Islamic organizations.
