List of attendance figures at domestic professional sports leagues



The table below lists domestic professional sports leagues from around the world by total attendances for the last completed season for which data is available. The following points should be considered:
 * In some cases the figures listed are for main season games only.
 * In some sports (mainly North American centered sports leagues) the main league competition provides each club or franchise with virtually the whole of its attendance and revenue. In others, there are multiple competitions, for example leading English football clubs compete in four competitions each season, but only the league competition is listed below.
 * In some sports, for example cricket and rugby union, international competitions and transnational club competitions provide a significant part of total attendances and revenue.
 * Free or heavily discounted seats may be counted by some leagues. No-shows for paid seats may be included in some cases, but not in others.
 * Not all leagues publish official attendance figures. Various media outlets produce their own figures and sometimes these do not agree, but the differences in the averages given are usually no more than one or two percent.
 * In some cases the official attendance figure released by clubs and/or their league may reflect the ticket sell through rather than the number of people in attendance on the night, this can result in a discrepancy of many thousands of attendees per event.
 * The "leagues" below include pure league competitions, where the team that finishes at the top of the table is declared the winner, such as the Premier League, and hybrid league/knock-out competitions, where the best league performers enter a knock-out phase (also called a playoff) to decide the winner, such as the National Football League.
 * Domestic leagues use either a franchise-based system or a promotion and relegation system. Leagues with a franchise system place, relocate or dissolve teams based on market factors. Leagues with a promotion and relegation system include teams based on their performance in the previous season. Attendance figures for leagues with a promotion and relegation system are more likely to vary each season due to the stadium capacity and support base for participating clubs.

Outdoor sports
This list is sorted by average attendance per game/match, with a minimum of 2,000. It covers leagues which normally would play in an outdoor stadium, as opposed to those leagues that use indoor arenas. Some outdoor league stadiums are equipped with either retractable or non-retractable roofs where weather conditions (such as rain or extreme heat/cold) would not allow a game to be played or watched effectively, comfortably or safely without such cover.
