From 1 July 2025, the Department of Creative Industries, Tourism and Sport (CITS) replaces the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC).
Intro
The COVID-19 Audience Outlook Monitor provides artists and cultural organisations with insights into how audiences feel about attending arts events again, to assist in decision making around re-opening.
Results from Phase 3 were collected in September 2020 and have been aggregated in a freely available dashboard, along with results from Phase 1 and 2.
The Western Australian data has been presented in a report available now on the Research Hub.
The results show that, in September 2020, 57% of past attendees have returned to cultural events, up from 33% in July 2020.
The department is collaborating with research agencies Patternmakers (Sydney) and WolfBrown (USA) and five other government agencies across Australia to produce this resource.
