Within Europe, the protests described themselves as being part of a 'Spanish revolution' and gathered pace until such point where demonstrations were being organised to take place outside the Spanish embassy in London from May 18th. On May 18th, the British broadcaster, the BBC, compared the Spanish protests with those which recently took hold in Egypt, catalysing the downfall of the former Egyptian President, Hosni Mubarak.

The night protests on that same date widened beyond the United Kingdom, with multiple remonstrations now visible in several European cities - such as Lisbon, Budapest, Berlin, Athens and Montpellier. The following morning, on May 19th, the protests swept across the Atlantic towards Mexico City in an echo of the Spanish sentiment, and, furthermore, Twitter came alight with a proposal for a Italian Revolution, looking to establish itself principally in the Piazza Santa Croce (Florence) but also in Rome, Milan, Turin, Bologna y Padua. Meanwhile, Spanish-New Yorkers decided to organise themselves at the University of Columbia in order to bring about a movement for May 21st at Washington Square Park. It also became clear throughout the day that at least 19 other cities outside of Spain wished to, and, eventually did, demonstrate in an echo of the Spanish activities. Besides those already mentioned, Edinburgh, Paris and Buenos Aires became sites of individual expressions of support for the idea that had originated in Madrid.

El día 20 las protestas de España copaban espacios privilegiados en varios grandes periódicos. En Internet, The Guardian dedicó un reportaje muy visitado a las protestas españolas. El mismo día, la BBC tituló un reportaje «Jóvenes desafiantes en el campamento de la Revolución española en Madrid». En algunos casos se ha comparado el movimiento con mayo del '68.
