Flamengo closes the season with the highest average attendance and revenue in Brazil; see the year’s rankings.

One of the lists that didn’t have Flamengo in first place was the one for highest revenue. The record for ticket sales was precisely in the last game of the Brazilian football calendar, in Corinthians’ 2-1 victory over Vasco , which secured the Copa do Brasil title for Timão.

Flamengo finished 2025 with an average of 51,600 paying spectators per match, followed by Corinthians with 41,700 per game. Besides Flamengo and Corinthians, only four other clubs surpassed the mark of more than 1 million tickets sold in the year: Cruzeiro, Bahia, Palmeiras, and São Paulo.

To be included in the average attendance ranking, a team needs to have played at least 10 home games with an audience present.

Ceará, Internacional, Fluminense, and Atlético-MG complete the Top 10 for highest average attendance. Of the Série A clubs, the only ones that do not appear in the ranking of the 30 best averages are Mirassol (5,611 fans per game) and Bragantino (4,731).

The record attendance for 2025 was also the highest attendance for a club match at the New Maracanã (since 2013). It was for the Flamengo 1 x 0 Ceará match, which secured the Brazilian Championship title for Flamengo, with an attendance of 73,200.

In the ranking of the 30 largest crowds, Flamengo is the home team in 22 of them. Cruzeiro is second with the most appearances (five), followed by Vasco (two) and Fluminense (one).

The box office record was set in the last game of the year. Corinthians’ 2-1 victory over Vasco in the Copa do Brasil final grossed over R$ 13 million, surpassing the record set by one of the first matches of 2025. The second highest revenue was in the Supercopa do Brasil, won by Flamengo after defeating Botafogo 3-1 at Mangueirão in Belém, with R$ 9.7 million in revenue.

In this ranking, Flamengo is the home team in 14 of the 30 highest gross revenue matches. Corinthians and Palmeiras each appear three times on the list.

Flamengo was the club with the highest gross revenue of the season and had the best average income. They earned over R$ 134 million from ticket sales, averaging R$ 3.8 million per game. Corinthians (R$ 3.01 million), Palmeiras (R$ 2.7 million), Cruzeiro (R$ 2.3 million), and Vasco (R$ 1.9 million) complete the top 5.

Among the 60 clubs in Series A, B, and C, the one that charged the cheapest tickets was Atlético-GO, which belongs to the Second Division. The Dragão (Atlético-GO’s nickname) charged its fans an average of R$ 10.26 for entry to its games.

However, Vasco fans had to pay the most. Vasco had an average ticket price of R$ 91.24 in 2025. In the 2-1 defeat to Corinthians last Sunday, which had the highest revenue of the season, the ticket cost an average of R$ 211.70. See below how much each team in the three main divisions of Brazil charged its fans on average, from the cheapest to the most expensive.

To arrive at the average ticket price, divide the total gross box office revenue by the total number of tickets sold.
