The line graph illustrates the proportion of people in five age groups (16-24, 25-44, 45-54, 55-64, 75 and over) in one city who attended music concerts from 2010 to 2015.
Overall, attendance among younger people, particularly those aged 16-24, rose markedly and became the highest by the end of the period. In contrast, the figures for older groups were generally lower, with the 75 and over group remaining the least represented throughout. Meanwhile, the 25-44 group experienced a decline before recovering steadily.
In 2010, approximately 40% of both the 16-24 and 25-44 age groups attended concerts, compared to just over 50% of those aged 45-54. The figures for older groups were considerably lower, at around 25% for the 55-64 group and only 10% for those aged 75 and above. Over the following year, attendance among 16-24-year-olds rose sharply to about 55%, while the 45-54 group fell noticeably to 40%. At the same time, the proportion of 25-44-year-olds declined steadily to around 30% by 2012.
From 2012 onwards, the percentage for the youngest group continued to climb gradually, reaching a peak of approximately 70% in 2015, the highest figure overall. The 25-44 group, after hitting a low point, recovered consistently and ended at just under 50%. In contrast, the 55-64 group peaked at around 30% in 2013 before declining steadily to roughly 22% by the end of the period. Although the 75+ group fluctuated, it showed a slight upward trend overall, finishing at about 20% in 2015. Meanwhile, the 45-54 group rebounded after its initial fall and remained relatively stable at just above 50% towards the end.
