CFL attendance climbed in Week 2 of the 2026 season. The three games from June 11 to June 13 averaged 27,872 fans, up more than 10,000 from Week 1. Winnipeg sold out Princess Auto Stadium at 32,343.

The jump came from the league's top home markets. Winnipeg and Saskatchewan both hosted in Week 2 after sitting out the opening weekend. Attendance figures come from @CFLAttendance on X.

Week 1 ran without Winnipeg, Saskatchewan, BC, and Toronto hosting. Week 2 put two of the league's three biggest 2025 draws on home turf. That swing accounts for most of the 10,753-fan increase.

How Week 2 Compares to 2025

The 2025 CFL regular season averaged about 22,950 fans per game. Week 2's 27,872 average sits well above that mark, driven by the Winnipeg and Saskatchewan home dates.
