The graph illustrates information about cinema attendance among four different age groups in Australia between 1990 and 2010. Overall, people aged 14-24 had the highest rate of cinema attendance throughout the period, whereas those aged 50 and above consistently had the lowest attendance rate.
The percentage of 14-24-year-olds attending the cinema fluctuated between approximately 87% and 97%. After falling slightly from 89% in 1990 to 87% in 1992, the figure rose to a peak of about 95% in 1996. It then remained relatively stable at around 90% until 2006, before increasing to approximately 97% in 2010. In contrast, the 50+ age group started at just 40% in 1990 and remained the lowest throughout the period, although its attendance gradually increased, reaching about 60% by 2010.
The other two age groups experienced relatively similar trends. The attendance rate for 25-34-year-olds increased from approximately 65% in 1990 to 80% in 2000, before remaining stable until 2006 and then declining slightly to around 75% in 2010. Meanwhile, the figure for 35-49-year-olds rose from 60% in 1990 to about 70% in 1994, fluctuated slightly over the following years, and then increased steadily to approximately 85% by 2010. In 2006, both groups recorded the same attendance rate of around 80%.
