#4 Mexico 1970 - 50,124
In what was the first ever FIFA World Cup held outside Europe and South America, the 1970 FIFA World Cup was the ninth tournament since the inaugural event in 1930.
16 teams competed to win the biggest prize in international football and the tournament recorded the highest average stadium attendance at the time hitting a staggering 50,124 people. Since then the event has dropped to the fourth spot in the list of highest average stadium attendances at a World Cup.
In what a closely contested event, England came into the event as defending champions but were ousted by West Germany. However, the Germans only managed to finish in third, while Brazil and their super team comprising the likes of Pelé, Gérson, Rivellino and Jairzinho went on to claim the title beating Italy 4-1 in the final.
The Azteca stadium was the venue for the final and is still remembered for the great exploits of the Brazilian team, still widely regarded as the greatest World Cup team of all-time.
