In 2023, movie theatre attendance amounted to 14.6 million in Québec. While theatre attendance was up 29% from 2022, it was still 22% lower than in 2019, the last pre-pandemic year. The factors behind this decrease include a lower number of screenings, which has not returned to pre-pandemic levels (-13% from 2019), fewer active movie theatres (down to 93 from 96), and changes in movie viewing habits.
This bulletin presents an analysis of statistics on movie theatre attendance. The statistics come from the Film Screening Survey.
