Cultural withdrawal in the wake of the Corona-Pandemic?
A comparison of nationwide general population surveys in Germany.

Abstract

The corona-pandemic has led to a reduction of cultural participation in the general population as is shown in nationwide general population surveys in Germany from 2016 and 2023. The cultural institutions with especially old visitors (like opera or classical concert) have usually not been affected more by this development than those with a younger one (like cinema). Moreover the older visitors have not been affected more than the younger ones. Their greater cultural involvement might have compensated for their greater reluctance in connection with Corona risks.
