The Milwaukee Admirals today announced that the team had its best home attendance season since joining the American Hockey League for the 2001-02 season. Prior to that season the Admirals were part of the International Hockey League.
The Admirals averaged 6,332 fans per home game during the 2025-26 season at the UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, a total of 227,953 fans over the course of 36 home games.
That slightly tops the Admirals best AHL home season attendance mark of 6,329 fans per game in the 2001-02 season.
The 2025-26 season was the third in a row that the Admirals have averaged more than 6,000 fans per home game, and it was the fourth year in a row of year-over-year home game attendance growth.
Harris Turer“We want to thank all of the fans that attended our games this season,” said Admirals owner and CEO Harris Turer. “We truly have the best fans in the AHL and they continue to show it year after year. We take pride in our ability to entertain them, both on the ice and off of it, with great giveaways, post-game concerts and ticket prices that won’t break the bank.”
The UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena has a seating capacity of 9,652 for hockey.
