1、MUSIC LISTENINGIN FINLAND 2024Kari Tervonen Lead researcherOmnicom Media Group Norstat interviewed 1,041 Finns in its consumer panel in August 2024.For the respondents,we sought 125 respondents from both the 1315-year-old and the 1618-year-old age groups,and then weighted their proportion to corresp
2、ond to these age groups proportion of the population.The key findings were weighted to represent the nationwide age and gender structure of Finlands population between the ages of 13 and 75.The survey results were analysed by Omnicom Media Groups researcher Kari Tervonen,who has been surveying every
3、day behaviour for a long time.Johanna Laitinen from Teosto and Tommi Kyyr from IFPI Finland represent music industry professionals in the task force.The survey produces information in serial form on how Finns music listening habits are changing over the long term.BackgroundWe always analyse survey r
4、esults by using the facts that are available to us.We compare the results with other information sources and also with the findings from previous years.Teosto and IFPI Finland have a wealth of information about music.Themes ofthe 2024 survey1.Attendance and non-attendance of live gigs 2.Superfans an

8、ees in 2024 was roughly the same as in 2018 or 2023.In the oldest age group,there are still some people who have attended events less frequently since COVID-19.The Finnish summer gig season was fairly good.However,according to Nordeas payment card statistics,concert ticket sales declined by more tha
9、n 20%in the summer months when compared to the previous year.The consumption of all goods and services declined by a few percent from 2023.More tickets were bought last minute than last year,and ticket pre-sales went well.At the end of July 2023,there was an exceptional Coldplay peak,which was reali
10、sed this summer in the form of four performances at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium.Based on the survey figures for summer 2024The number of Finns who attended a gig Festival,overnight stay,500,000 people Festivals,day visits,800,000 people An individual gig,1,000,000 peopleConsidered but did not atten
11、d 1.5 million Finns,one million of whom missed a festival,while half a million missed an individual gig by an artitst.In particular,1635-year-olds considered attending but ended up not doing so.However,about one million Finns attended at least one festival or gig during the summer.Ticket prices are
12、considered to be high For more than half(56%)of the respondents,the ticket price is a major reason for not buying a ticket to a gig or festival.For just over a third(36%),a key reason was the total cost of the entire trip,including travel,food and drinks.Lack of money is not only a problem for young
13、 people,as 3645-year-olds narrowly had the most people who missed a gig for money-related reasons.The fact that the same proportion of respondents did not attend a gig due to ticket prices in the high-income group as in the middle-income group shows that people dislike high ticket prices on principl
14、e.In addition to buying tickets,prices are also a key reason for postponing purchases in other consumption.A considerable proportion of the events were at least nearly sold out also at these prices.But if many tickets were left unsold,the price could be a key reason for the drop in sales.Other reaso
15、ns for not attending a gig or festival One in four(25%)did not attend a gig because they had another event to attend at that time.Less common but still significant reasons for not attending include:Failure to get friends to attend 18%Poor artist selection 18%Difficulties in arranging travel 16%Diffi
16、culty in arranging accommodation 15%Bad weather 12%Poor availability of tickets 12%In addition,15%stated that they were not interested enough to attend after all and 11%of the respondents“just forgot”.In 2023:Live music will become even more important to peopleas the world becomes more technological
17、Agree 64%Disagree 9%Neither agree nor disagree 27%In summer 2024,more than half a million Finns did not attend a festival and around 300,000 did not attend an individual gig due to high ticket prices.Of course,it will not be possible to bring these figures down to even close to zero,as there will al
18、ways be people who wont have enough money for extra expenses.Event organisers also have to operate profitably,and the potential upcoming VAT increase on tickets would not help the event industry.Hotels and restaurants,prices and demandOne of the few areas of consumption that saw an increase in summe
19、r 2024 was the number of domestic hotel stays(+5%).The prices of hotel rooms in Finland have remained largely unchanged when compared to the beginning of the 2020s.At the same time,restaurant sales decreased by approximately 5%year-on-year.Restaurant prices are estimated to have increased by about 2
20、5%during this decade.In principle,the figures for the hotel and restaurant sector should develop at a somewhat similar pace.Finland has about two million music fans,of whom more than 50,000 are superfansPART 2:Superfans and music fan culture in Finland.The superfan phenomenon has become a topic of d
21、iscussion in international music.Superfans show exceptional dedication and passion for an artist or a band.They may travel long distances to see their favourite artist perform,collect a wide range of fan merchandise and actively participate in fan communities on social media.Two million Finns,or 43%
22、of us,have a particular favourite artist.Of course,the range of favourite artists is huge.Names that are mentioned often include Haloo Helsinki,Costi,Behm,Coldplay,Taylor Swift,Rammstein,Kaija Koo and Juha Tapio.There are more than 50,000 indisputable superfans of a music artist in Finland.There are
23、 almost half a million hardcore fans who are on the threshold of being a superfan.Superfans are most likely to beteenagers and young adults,in particular 1625-year-olds.Hardcore fans can be found in all age groups.How can you tell whether you are a superfan or a more regular fan?The levels of being
