Major League Soccer attendance

Competition began in 1996 and attendance has been increasing rapidly since the early 2000s, making it one of the fastest-growing sports leagues in the world.

The highest increases in average attendance since 2023 are those seen by Vancouver Whitecaps FC (56%) and New England Revolution (22.2%).

On July 4 2023, the largest standalone attendance in MLS history for a single match (82,110 spectators)[4] was reached at the Rose Bowl where LA Galaxy defeated Los Angeles FC 2-1.

This is because the limited capacities of their usual venues are lifted for certain matches by opening additional sections.

The table below lists the highest attendances in individual games for 24 of the current MLS franchises.

The remaining five clubs have not been included here because, since their inceptions, they have played all their games in their soccer-specific stadia, which have been filled many times.

Those leagues are NFL, MLB, MLS, CFL, NBA, NHL, UFL and NWSL.
