Recreation: United States
This report forecasts to 2022 and 2026 US personal consumption expenditures (PCE) on recreation services in nominal and real (inflation-adjusted) US dollars. Total spending is segmented by service in terms of: gambling, amusement parks and related services, clubs and participant sports, spectator sports, museums and libraries, live entertainment, and movie theaters.

Spending on other services – such as accommodation, dining, and shopping – offered by a recreation service provider is excluded from the scope of this report.
Key macroeconomic indicators are also provided with quantified trends. Other various topics, including profiles of pertinent leading companies, are covered in this report. A full outline of report items by page is available in the Table of Contents.
