sports

events, theme parks and movies in 2009 and the table reveals ticket prices to various venues in the same year. Going to the cinema was both the most popular and the cheapest form of entertainment in 2009. The

overall

message from the data seems to be that the cinema was the most affordable recreational option.

Whereas

enrollment figure for

sports

was the lowest choice. Cinemas attracted more people than theme gardens and

sports

combined. Whilst 1,050,000 people attended movies, only a third of that number visited picturesque fields, and a mere 150,000 went to

sports

games. Movie tickets were far cheaper than other forms of entertainment Attendance at a football game in 2009 cost around $73, with little decline for families. Basketball and cricket games cost less, at $34 and $24 respectively for a single admission.

However

, a family ticket to cricket, at $80, showed considerable savings. These places were only slightly less expensive than football matches at $70 a single, but there was a significant reduction in the price of a family concession with four people gaining entry for the price of three. Movie tickets at $15 for one, and $55 for four, were the cheapest.
