Australian rules football attendance records Note: Since the 1970s in Australia, many grounds have been reconfigured without standing room, which reduces maximum capacity.
In the case of the 1976 SANFL Grand Final, the official crowd of 66,987 was the number of tickets sold, but when the SANFL ran out they opened Football Park's gates for free and the crowd grew by an estimated 15,000.
The International Cup carnival does not charge for admission, and crowd figures are estimates to the nearest 500 spectators based on total ground capacity.

Note: No international Australian Rules Football leagues currently charge for admission (though the POM AFL did in the 1970s).
