The line graph illustrates the proportion of separate age groups, who went to the cinema once a month or more in one European country between 2000 and 2011.
Overall, the percentage witnessed an upward trend across all categories. Additionally, young people were more likely to go to the cinema, while the 35 and over age group showed the lowest favour of going to the cinema throughout.
In 2000, roughly 15% of people aged 15-24 went to the cinema, followed by 7-14, 25-35 and 35 and over age groups, standing at 10%, roughly 5% and 2%, respectively. Subsequently, the rate for the 15-24 age group rose steadily to approximately 34% before fluctuating widely between roughly 34% and roughly 51% over the next three years. This figure then increased slightly before declining to its 2009 rate, at roughly 51%. By contrast, those aged 35 and over showed a slight increase to around 10% over the period.
Regarding the remaining categories, there was a moderate fluctuation around roughly 12% in the figure for 7-14 age group until 2005, before increasing sharply to approximately 23% and remaining unchanged to the next year. This rate then increased again to roughly 37% before dropping relatively to under 30% in the final year. By contrast, 15-24 age group rose to around 22% in the first seven years before showing the ups and downs around 22%. This figure then increased slightly to reach the same level of 7-14 age group by the end of the period.
