List of women's association football attendance records

Women's association football is a popular sport, though less watched than the equivalent men's game in most markets. In the early 20th century, women's football thrived in England, seeing crowds equal to or larger than men's football matches; between the 1920s and 1970s, women's football was banned from existing in official capacities in England and various other regions, setting it back.[1] While most men's association football attendance records were set in the 20th century, record crowds in the women's game have been set predominantly in the 21st century.

The world record attendance for a women's football match set at Camp Nou on 22 April 2022

The record attendance of a women's football match is 91,648, set during a UEFA Women's Champions League match between Barcelona Femení and Wolfsburg at the Camp Nou on 22 April 2022.[2][3][4] Barcelona also played, against Atlético Madrid, in the match at the Metropolitano Stadium which holds the domestic league attendance record of 60,739.[5] Including records not officially recognised due to unsanctioned matches, Barcelona, Dick, Kerr Ladies F.C. and the Mexico women's national team have each set the world record attendance the most times, at three each.
