How do I find out which hashtags are trending on Facebook?

On Facebook, it's not as straightforward as on other platforms because they don't have an official "trending hashtags" section like TikTok or Twitter. Even so, there are several ways to get a good idea. One is to search for hashtags related to your niche directly in the search bar, when you do this, Facebook shows you groups, posts, and pages where that hashtag is being used, and you can see if it's trending or if hardly anyone is using it.
Another thing that works is to check out large pages or creators in the same industry as yours. Most use hashtags that are performing well for them, so if you see several repeating the same ones, they're probably trending within that niche. You can also use external tools like RiteTag or even Instagram Insights (if you use both platforms), because what's popular on Instagram often ends up doing the same on Facebook.
On Facebook, you have to do a little manual research, but with searches, observing the competition, and using external tools, you can get a pretty clear idea of which hashtags you should use.

I see Facebook doesn't have this feature yet. You can type hashtag, Facebook will recommend hashtags with high interaction levels, you can choose the highest one.

Try searching with # and the featured topics will always appear at the top for you.
Facebook doesn’t have a public, real-time trending hashtags page. You can sometimes spot popular topics by checking public groups, the search bar suggestions, or the “Reels” tab - those often reflect what’s currently active. Keep in mind that Facebook’s algorithm favors engagement over virality, so chasing hashtags alone rarely boosts reach. Focus more on community interaction than trend-hopping.
You can track trending topics using tools like Google Trends. It helps you see what people are searching for in real time.

Facebook doesn’t have a public “trending hashtag” page anymore. But you can track trending topics using tools like Trendinalia, BrandMentions, BuzzSumo, or Meta Business Suite Insights.
Another simple trick: check hashtags used in the top viral posts in your niche — those usually trend fastest.

Only the manual way, my friend. Search directly in Facebook’s search bar and type in the #hashtag. Facebook will show you the number of posts using that hashtag, as well as the public posts that include it.If a hashtag has many recent posts, it means it’s currently trending

Mate would recemond you just use those hashtags which are comming on top, another way is that you should cheak reels and take from those.
But make sure to do it manually as I have seen better results and sometimes even when we just copy and paste it doesn't work

It takes a bit of manual checking, but these methods usually give a pretty accurate picture of what’s currently popular.

Facebook has removed the 'trending' hashtag page. If you want to see trending Hashtags, you can look for keyword suggestions in the search bar or in the Reels section because topics appearing there usually reflect content that is currently being well-recommended. Furthermore, you can also find trend ideas by asking ChatGPT, Meta AI, Gemini, or Grok. However, note that hashtags are only a secondary factor. The important thing for trending right now remains community engagement, creating content that viewers like, comment on, and share.

Facebook doesn’t offer a public “trending hashtags” tool. The closest options are checking hashtag pages directly, watching what shows up in the Reels/Feed of your niche, and using third party trend trackers that scan public posts. Trending topics on Facebook are mostly driven by real time discussions, not by official hashtag rankings.

The easiest way is to watch big pages, groups in your niche and see which tags they repeat. google trends helps too and Instagram trends often line up with facebook, so that can guide you as well.
