Notes

Some of the stadiums on this list have been temporarily expanded to larger capacities in the past via temporary seating. SMU's Huskies stadium was expanded to what is believed to be it's seating maximum 11,000 for a CFL game and Victoria's Royal Athletic Park had plans to seat just under 15,000 for a soccer tournament a few years back (some of the temporary seating was not installed however, so the largest seated capacity at that field for that event was just over 10,000).
