AEW annual attendance trends through 2023

You might be looking for this page with more up to date data instead:


For 2019 and 2020, tickets sold are estimated based on subtracting 9% from reports of total attendance (presumably including comps) from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter and other sources.

For 2021, 2022, and 2023, tickets sold are estimated by subtracting 9% from WrestleTix‘s estimate of tickets distributed.

9% is chosen as the difference between ticket sales and tickets sold because that’s the average difference for events in the U.S. and Canada between WrestleTix estimate of tickets distributed and WWE’s reporting of its ticket sales throughout 2021 to 2023.

Events held with restricted capacity due to the pandemic in 2020 and 2021 are not included.
