Super League smashes incredible attendance record as Easter action draws big crowds aplenty
A new record has been set for Super League’s largest cumulative attendance in a single ‘regular season’ round: with 86,080 packing out stadiums to watch the six games across the competition over the Easter weekend.
Heading into this year’s ‘Rivals Round’, the magic number to beat was 83,357 – with that total reached during the Easter weekend of 2023.

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

So tell me again, which is the biggest Derby?
A big city rivalry or two small towns nine miles apart

Both sold out. It's only down to the fact we have a bigger soulless modern stadium than the one in Hull that we had a bigger attendancejosie andrews wrote: ↑Sun Apr 20, 2025 8:39 am So tell me again, which is the biggest Derby?
