They don't seem to be doing badly for the big games like the opener, the England games and final. Games at Headingley also doing well. But sadly games outside the heartlands like Middlesbrough, Coventry and Donny are looking a bit sparse. The media will start running some stories soon though.
The high ticket prices are getting much criticism, but the organisers are adamant they won't reduce. Can see both sides here as in 2013 it became a bit of a farce with the promo codes, there were so many that you actually had to sit and type different ones in just to see the biggest discount you can get.
