Biggest ever EIHL holiday crowds recorded!

 

Attendances over the Christmas and New Year period went over 120,000 fans this season, beating last year’s total – and with one fewer game played!

In total, 120,037 fans came to games between 26 December 2025 and 4 January 2026. This beats last season’s total of 117,162 over the same period which also saw one more game take place.

The season’s figure included Sheffield Steelers setting a new Elite League attendance record on 26 December!

Thank you for your support over the Festive Period!
