ATTENDANCE AT CULTURAL ACTIVITIES

About 4 in 5 Tasmanians aged 18 years and over attended at least one of the cultural venues or events (e.g. cinemas, libraries, museums, theatre performances and concerts) included in a 2002 ABS survey. Attendance rates varied little between the three Tasmanian Regions:

  • Greater Hobart-Southern Region, 85.8%
  • Northern Region, 82.6%
  • Mersey-Lyell Region, 83.2%
  • Tasmania, 84.3%.

Tasmania: what's on provides links to information about what's on in Tasmania and when (e.g. clubs, associations, events, galleries, museums, markets, news, night-life; includes a link to an events calendar).
