Detroit set a record with 275,000 first night attendees at the 2024 NFL Draft. Green Bay hosted about 205,000 fans, according to league officials.

According to the NFL, 600,000 people attended this year's draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and fewer than the 700,000 fans who flooded downtown Detroit last year. Before Detroit, the record was 600,000 set at the 2019 draft in Nashville.

Detroit hosted the draft for the first time in 2024. It drew a record crowd of 275,000 people downtown for last year's first round. When the three-day draft was over, more than 775,000 fans had shown up to the NFL's annual April showcase, which also stood as a record.
