Celtic broke the 1m attendance mark in 2023/24

Celtic fans always regard their club as one of the biggest and best supported in the world.

 

Playing football in Scotland doesn’t exactly give Celtic the same global media coverage as some of the clubs from the top five leagues in the world but that hasn’t stopped the club from having a worldwide fanbase.Celtic broke the 1m attendance mark in 2023/24

In a UEFA report called The European Club Talent and Competition Landscape, Celtic was one of only 16 clubs in Europe to break through the 1m aggregated attendance mark last season.According to the report Celtic racked up a combined home attendance of 1,117,712 split into three categories.

 

Due to their 58,975 season-ticket holders, Celtic’s Scottish Premiership attendance was 1,359,422. The domestic cup competitions pulled in 73,412 and UEFA competitions 168,298.Yes, there were tasty away ties at Borussia Dortmund and Aston Villa, but the home games stood out because many felt that it was favourable.

 

The Bhoys, whether it be under Rodgers or Ange Postecoglou in recent years, have huffed and puffed in Europe, then found themselves crashing out as soon as the Christmas lights went up.

 

But ahead of Celtic welcoming Slovakia side Slovan Bratislava to Parkhead, Peter Grant shared his thoughts on what coming for the team and why he is ‘concerned’.There have been memorable nights against Barcelona in Paradise before, it wasn’t so long ago that Real Madrid visited these shores.

 

Grant touched upon how, with those teams, ‘you know what’s coming’, but with facing Bratislava, RB Leipzig, Club Brugge and Young Boys at home, he feels there is a sense of unknown about some of these sides and that is then a worry, as he told Go Radio.
