It depends on the timing of the event. If it already happened, you would say "There were no attendees" or "There were no participants." (In that case, who would know? <g>). If it's being canceled because no one signed up, you would say something like, "This event has been canceled due to a lack of participants."
Yes, for is a preposition there.
The apostrophe should not be in "attendance's." It is a possessive, i.e. something belonging to attendance, i.e. gibberish.
