The chart provides information on the proportion of individuals residing in Australia who spent their time visiting various cultural or leisure facilities in their spare time in 2010.
Overall, it is clear that cinemas were the most popular venue among in all three groups: native-born Australians, new migrants from Englis-speaking countries and migrants from other nations, whereas theatres attracted only a small proportion of visitors during the period shown.
Zoos and libraries recorded relatively similar participation rates. About 50% of new migrants from English-speaking countries visited zoos in their leisure time. Meanwhile, migrants from non-English countries showed a stronger preference for libraries, with approximately 55% visiting them over the year.
All three groups, including both Australians and migrants attended theatres the least, making this facility the least popular overall. This was evident among migrants from non-English-speaking countries, with only 10% visiting theatres. In contrast, cinemas were the most frequently visited facility across all groups, likely due to the wide variety of movies available. Notably, around 70% of local Australians chose to go to cinemas.
