bulldogs 2 Posted May 28, 2013 The capacity for Speedway is 62,000. I think the largest attendance so far has been 43,000. For the first time since I have been going to The millenium there is a British rider in contention. This has led to me for the first time buying tickets in advance as there is a possibility that the cheap seats will sale out. I will be surprised if the attendance does not exceed 43,000.
