The following is a list of films with the most weekends as number one at the box office in the United States and Canada.

Films with at least four weekends at number one are listed. They must have been released in 1982 or later to qualify. This limit is in the Box Office Mojo source.[1] On Golden Pond is included with a wide release in 1982 after a limited release in December 1981.

Ties are broken by total domestic box office without adjusting for inflation. E.T. sits atop with 16 weeks at number one (31% of a year). The largest number of films in a year is six in 1986 and 1992.
