Top five highest single-game attendances in MLS history

Top five highest single-game attendances in MLS history

There’s no denying that Major League Soccer continues to grow in North America, and fan attendances continue to rise as well across the league.

The league’s two Los Angeles based clubs, LA Galaxy and LAFC, have combined to set a new single-game attendance record (82,110) in the Gs’ 2-1 win on July 4 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California. The game was meant to be originally played on February 25, but heavy rain forced the league to reschedule the matchup, resulting in a new record.

The record was previously held by Charlotte FC in their first ever home game where they fell to the Galaxy 1-0. 74,479 supporters flocked to Bank of America Stadium only to see the Galaxy come away with a narrow win thanks to a wonder-strike from Efrain Alvarez.

With that in mind, here are the top five highest single-game attendances in the league’s history…
