2025 Crowd watch

With Vegas, Magic, All Stars & WSOO now all on sale, thought it was time to start everyone's favourite thread.

MAGIC ROUND + WSOO

Magic Round ticket sales have exploded following the release of three and four-day passes in recent days.

So much so that the release of single-day passes have been brought forward to cope with the demand.

Total sales for Magic Round three and four-day passes has edged close to 20,000 just a few days into the on sale, which is a 40 per cent jump on the same time last year.

With the new four-day passes being released for the first time, there has been a 280 per cent jump in sales for women’s State of Origin One on the Thursday night prior to Magic Round on May 1.

Interestingly, aside from the obvious support from Broncos and Dolphins fans, the biggest take-up so far of the club member allocation has come from Melbourne Storm and Warriors members.

This year's double header at Allegiant Stadium attracted a crowd of more than 40,000 and the NRL wants to exceed that the second time round. Hence the plan to tap into the crowd at the Formula One Grand Prix by advertising at some famed location in Sin City.

The Las Vegas frenzy has already begun, with close to 30,000 tickets already sold for the event.

All Perth games tickets now on sale. Double header cheaper than Dolphins game. Sure that makes sense to someone!

Perth Stadium has three times as many seats to fill.

Looks like the NRL have figured how to market WOrigin. I was online trying to get Diamond tickets on Day 1. 4dp was $299, 3dp was $409.

Looks like the NRL have figured how to market WOrigin. I was online trying to get Diamond tickets on Day 1. 4dp was $299, 3dp was $409.

It looks like they've tweaked those prices. Diamond is now unavailable for 4 days Gold for an Adult is $329, whilst for 3 days, Gold is $289.

Not the worse strategy making the 4 day tickets almost the same as 3 day tickets (or even discounting them). The Queensland Government would happily make up the difference to the NRL for getting an extra day of accomodation and other spending out of the traveling league fans.

One Day passes for Magic Weekend have gone on sale to club members today and will be released to the General Public tomorrow. Will get a better picture tomorrow, but doesn't look like Magic Round is going to have any trouble selling out again this year.

Lower bowl for Perth Origin is down to around 50 tickets, with reasonable sales on the higher levels. Possibly sitting around the 20K sold already.

So, does anyone think we will keep the upward trend in crowds going this season?

 

[Diesel]

No reason why not. Warriors sold out every game, if they have a successful season they could go 2 seasons, Broncos tipped to have a good season and winners draw crowds.Dolphins are growing their fan base. Panthers may struggle with a move to Parra but Tigers & Dogs draw good crowds when winning

I'd be very surprised if we break the attendance record again. Penrith having no home ground means their average will drop massively. The Broncos and Warriors are both coming off ordinary seasons could also see a similar dip. Hopefully they can continue off last years massive numbers and continue to build an attendance culture regardless of form.

There could be massive increases in Sydney though if the Dogs, Dragons and Tigers can see more success. Dogs and Dragons especially should be in the top 8. Manly seem to have created a good attendance culture at Brookvale too so hopefully that continues.

We need good luck with the weather too. Wev've had a pretty dry past 2 years so hopefully we get close to the record again.

Trump, Brady and AI: PVL reveals NRL’s US dream

“It will definitely be bigger than last year,” he said.

“We are expecting 50-60,000 fans and have already sold over 35,000 tickets."

“We will be doing a lot more marketing and it’s the first time it’s going on free-to-air television in America which will be a minimum of 500,000 viewers."

“We have nearly 20,000 Australians travelling over there. We have a New Zealand team and Super League teams (Wigan and Warrington) that will attract people from England.
“The women’s game (Jillaroos v England) will be unique because Americans have never seen how good our players are. That is going to rock their socks to see how good the women are.
“It’s not an easy path to attract Americans but we will get there.”
