Top leagues in recent domestic club championship event attendance

Inside Wembley Stadium
The annual UAAP Cheerdance Competition routinely sells out the Smart Araneta Coliseum, Southeast Asia's largest indoor arena.

This section lists the most recent attendances at annual championship events (single decider matches or the final match in a best-of series only) by total attendance, and includes domestic leagues and competitions. It has to be noted that the listed crowd figures are usually a reflection of a championship venue's capacity, as demand for these events is generally so high that any stadium or arena would be filled to capacity.

The method by which championship venue(s) are determined can indirectly affect the attendance of such a match.

In most competitions that use a best-of final series, each individual match typically takes place at one team's home venue. In the Philippine Basketball Association, a competition in which no team has its own home arena, most finals matches (including any that can potentially end a series) are held at Araneta Coliseum, which had long been the country's largest indoor sports venue before the construction of Philippine Arena.

In most competitions that have a one-off final, the site is determined well in advance. Some competitions have a permanent site for their finals. Two notable examples are the Australian Football League, whose Grand Final is always at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), and the Gaelic Athletic Association, which holds its final matches in Gaelic football and hurling at Croke Park. Others determine the final venue anywhere from months to years before the event, such as the NFL, which determines the host of the Super Bowl more than three years in advance.

However, one transnational club event in rugby union (whose final attendance is listed in a separate table) uses a very different system. In Super Rugby, the final is awarded to the finalist that finished higher in the league table during the regular season. Another transnational club event in the same sport, Pro12 (formerly Celtic League), used the same method to determine the host of its final until 2015, when it began to use a predetermined site.

Of the eight American college sports conferences that sponsor football in the top-level Division I FBS that have season-ending conference championship games, four have a permanent site for their title games and four award hosting rights to the division champion with the better record in conference play (with tiebreakers used as needed).

For the purposes of this table, "domestic" is defined to include leagues which are historically focused in one country, but may have teams in one or more nearby countries. Examples of this phenomenon include:

  • Of the six largest professional leagues in English-speaking North America, only the two gridiron football leagues—the NFL and CFL—operate on one side of the U.S.–Canada border. Of the four traditional "major leagues", only the NHL has more than one team in Canada; since 2011–12, it has 23 teams in the U.S. and seven in Canada. Major League Soccer, in recent years becoming increasingly accepted as a fifth "major league", has 17 U.S. teams and three Canadian teams in the current 2016 season, and will add at least three more U.S. teams by 2018.
  • The Gaelic Athletic Association, which governs Gaelic games, is mostly restricted to the island of Ireland, although teams from London and New York City participate in its senior championships.
  • Two major Australian leagues—the National Rugby League (rugby league) and A-League (association football)—have included a team from New Zealand since their inception.
  • The vast majority of the teams competing in rugby league's Super League have been from England. Only three teams from outside the country, two from France and one from Wales, have ever competed in the league, and only one of these teams (from France) currently competes at this level.
  • Although the Challenge Cup of rugby league includes teams from France, Wales, Scotland and Russia, the overwhelming majority of the competing teams are from England.
  • The English association football pyramid includes several clubs from Wales, although Welsh clubs do not necessarily participate at every level in a given season. Since the 2011–12 season, a Welsh club (Swansea City) has competed in the Premier League, and a second Welsh club (Cardiff City) competed for one year in the 2013–14 season before being relegated.
  • The Kontinental Hockey League is overwhelmingly focused on Russia, although as of the most recently completed 2015–16 season it has teams in Belarus, Croatia, Finland, Kazakhstan, Latvia, and Slovakia. A team from Ukraine is currently on hiatus due to conflict in that country, and a team from the Czech Republic folded after the 2013–14 season. A Chinese team is set to join the league in 2016–17.

The Euroleague in basketball is transnational in that it includes teams from multiple European countries, but is domestic in the sense of being a championship for the single entity of Europe. It is governed by the Euroleague Basketball Company, an explicitly pan-European body that is independent of the continental governing body of FIBA Europe.

This contrasts with leagues such as Super Rugby and Pro12, which operate in multiple countries with more than one team in each country, and also make no pretense of being a championship for a continental-size region.

Semi-professional and amateur leagues

View of the crowd at the 2004 Rose Bowl College Football Game

This section lists college and amateur leagues by total attendance. Remaining amateurism requirements in the majority of top-level sports were dropped in the late 20th century, and there are now only a few amateur leagues which are of interest to a wide public. In the United States, college sports are very popular and at least one significant ice hockey league retains an amateur requirement. In Ireland, the All-Ireland senior championships in Gaelic football and hurling, both operated by the Gaelic Athletic Association, which continues to prohibit professionalism, each draw over 80,000 to fill Croke Park for the respective finals.[134]

The NCAA championships listed here are all composed of several separate conferences with varying attendance levels. For example, in American football, per-game home attendances for the highest level of competition, Division I FBS, in the 2014 season ranged from 15,431 for Mid-American Conference teams to 77,694 for Southeastern Conference teams.[135][Note 5] NCAA Division I FBS football has the 2nd highest average attendance world-wide for any league-wide sport (behind the National Football League) and the 2nd highest overall attendance world-wide (behind Major League Baseball). For College Baseball, Dudy Noble Field, Polk-DeMent Stadium at Mississippi State University holds the on-campus attendance record at 15,586[136] and all of college baseball's Top 11 on-campus largest crowds.

Notes

  1. ^ The actual number of regular-season games was 1,230. However, only games played in teams' regular home arenas are included in the calculations. In 2010–11, six teams—the Boston Bruins, Carolina Hurricanes, Columbus Blue Jackets, Minnesota Wild, Phoenix Coyotes, and San Jose Sharks—opened the season with two games in Europe as part of the annual NHL Premiere series, with each team losing one home game as a result. Two teams, the Calgary Flames and Pittsburgh Penguins, hosted outdoor events at large football stadiums, respectively the Heritage Classic and Winter Classic.
  2. ^ These statistics include only regular-season games for each team played at their regular home arenas. The previously noted NHL Premiere games in Europe and the two outdoor games are not included in the calculations because they would not fairly reflect the teams' regular attendance, due either to geography or venue capacity.
  3. ^ This figure includes the 9 matches of the 2014 finals series. Considering regular-season games only, total attendance was 6,384,742, with an average of 32,246.
  4. ^ This number is the average attendance per session. The NCAA Division I wrestling championship finals are contested in six sessions over three days, with separate ticketing for each session. The total attendance for the entire tournament was 113,013.
  5. ^ This includes all regular-season games, bowl games for FBS teams, and playoff games and other postseason games in FCS and lower divisions. It does not include postseason all-star games.
  6. ^ a b The actual number of games is slightly greater than the cited figure. In most postseason tournaments, as well as some special events during the regular season, tickets are sold for "sessions" instead of games. For example, in the NCAA men's tournament, in which 67 games are played in all, tickets are sold for 36 sessions. All tournament sessions consist of two games, except for the four regional finals and the national championship game; a single ticket admits the holder to both games of a two-game session.
  7. ^ a b This figure covers all games, including the NCAA tournament and other postseason tournaments.
  8. ^ This figure includes only regular-season home games for each team. It includes special outdoor events, but does not include neutral-site games, conference tournaments, or the NCAA tournament.
  9. ^ Since the game's inception in 2013, it has featured an A-League all stars team against a visiting foreign club.
  10. ^ Since 2005, the game has featured an MLS all-star team against a visiting foreign club team.
  11. ^ Since the 2010–11 season, Ireland and Wales have fielded four teams each, and Italy and Scotland have fielded two each.
