    Industry Report - Industry Products Chapter

    The industry is segmented based on music or theatre production types. The industry's main product segments are popular music concerts, classical music concerts, theatre performances, dance performances, and musicals and operas. These have been segmented based on their share of attendances. IBISWorld expects that the share of revenue generated by popular music concerts has increased over the past five years, as the number of popular international artists touring Australia has risen. Several other product segments have declined marginally as a share of revenue due to the upswing in attendance at popular music concerts. Year-on-year variations among other segments are determined by music and theatre production company programmes, and the ability to stage big-name productions.
