By club

Current SPFL member clubs This is a list of all 42 Scottish Professional Football League clubs' record match attendances at their home ground. The vast majority of these records were achieved before the advent of all-seater stadia. The cost of building all-seater grounds, and a general decline in attendances, means the present capacities of the clubs stadiums are well below their record attendances. Some records were achieved at a club's previous ground, rather than their current location. For example, Clyde's record was set at Shawfield Stadium, whilst they have since moved to Broadwood Stadium Rangers' record attendance of 118,567 is also the British record for a league match.

The attendance of 147,365 for the 1937 Scottish Cup final between Celtic and Aberdeen at Hampden Park is a European record for a club match. While less than 50% of the all-time record crowds at Hampden, the attendance of 72,069 at the 1989 Scottish Cup final has become a landmark figure as no match in Scotland has come close to matching it since, owing to subsequent stadium modernisation which left no venue with a greater capacity. ==Scotland national team==
