The given bar chart illustrates the attendance rate in different recreational venues while the table represents the price of entrance ticket to each venues.
Overall, Cinemas were obviously the most common entertainment venues while the number of sports goers was the lowest in the surveyed year. This ranking was reversed when it comes to the admission price as cinema was the most affordable option whereas those of sport venues were significantly higher.
Regarding the number of visitors to different venues, cinemas enjoyed the greatest preference in 2009, with over 1 million people choosing this kind of entertainment. This figure helped cinemas beat their counterparts by a wide margin in terms of popularity. At the same time, despite being notably lower than the figure for cinemas (around 350 thousand visitors), Theme Parks still ranked as the second most popular destination and only half of its figure opted for sport watching in 2009.
A contrast pattern was observed in the price of entrance ticket as that of Football Game was consistently higher than that of other entertainment venues’, with Football Game-AFL being the most expensive at $75 per ticket and $298 per four-member family. In spite of being in the same single-ticket price range as Football Game, Theme Park charged a more reasonable family ticket at $210. Also, while being categorized as sports, the entrance ticket to other types of sports, namely Basketball and Cricket was half the price of Football Game. However, the most affordable recreational option was cinema whose admission ticket per person was $15 and $55 for family.
