Overview

• The league surpassed the 2002 mark, reaching about 2.43 million fans with roughly a month remaining in the 2025 regular season.
• Average attendance sits above 11,000 per game, and the WNBA would need about 8,750 per remaining game to eclipse 3 million, with a finish near 3.15 million possible if the pace holds.
• The Golden State Valkyries sold out all 16 home games at Chase Center in their inaugural season, drawing 289,024 total attendees.
• The Indiana Fever lead total attendance with more than 300,000 fans through 18 home dates despite Caitlin Clark missing most of those games; coach Stephanie White says the hope is for a return before the postseason.
• Teams continue scheduling select matchups in larger arenas, including Fever–Mystics at Baltimore’s CFG Bank Arena on Sept. 7 and three Las Vegas Aces games at T-Mobile Arena in September.
