A new survey has revealed that most people prefer watching live music<\/a> in concert to sex.<\/p>\n

The survey is courtesy of Live Nation, who spoke to 40,000 participants from 15 different international markets for their Living for Live report.<\/p>\n

\n

The report claims, \u201cIf limited to one type of entertainment for the rest of their lives, live music is the #1 global consumer choice \u2013 Live music (39 per cent), Movies in theatres (17 per cent), Professional sports events (14 per cent).\u201d<\/p>\n

It also states, \u201cPeople are over 2x more likely to choose a concert for their favourite artist over sex (70 per cent would pick a concert vs. 30 per cent would pick sex).\u201d<\/p>\n

Other results from the survey include 77 per cent of participants saying that attending live music shows makes them feel like they are part of something bigger. <\/p>\n

Fans making an event out of live shows is another trend that is picked up on in the report, with 60 per cent of people travelling each year for a concert. Meanwhile, 70 per cent plan travel weeks in advance, and 75 per cent say a trip makes the show \u201cmore meaningful\u201d.<\/p>\n

It also claims that 94 per cent of fans post footage of shows on social media, which they say makes it the \u201cworld\u2019s fastest-growing media channel\u201d. The report then states, \u201cFor half of Gen Z<\/a>, posting is part of why they go.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, the dominance of female artists in the live music arena is highlighted, citing Beyonc\u00e9\u2019s record-breaking Cowboy Carter World Tour, and Olivia Rodrigo\u2019s Lollapalooza set<\/a>, before sharing that 76 per cent of fans are interested in live events headlined by women.<\/p>\n

Russell Wallach, Live Nation\u2019s global president of media and sponsorship, said of the report\u2019s findings, \u201cLive music isn\u2019t just growing, it\u2019s shaping economies, influencing brands, and defining culture in real time.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cFans have made live the heartbeat of global entertainment, and it\u2019s now one of the most powerful forces driving connection and growth worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n
