Pocket statistics on culture in Switzerland
The Federal Office of Culture's "Pocket Statistics on Culture in Switzerland" provides concise and clear statistical information on culture in Switzerland. The 2016 edition is now available.
According to a statement from the Federal Office of Culture, the thematic focus is on the cultural behavior of the population, the use of cultural offerings and public spending on culture. This year's edition includes new data on cultural funding by charitable foundations and crowdfunding in the cultural sector, as well as the top ten most successful films, DVDs, music albums and books.
How many cinemas, museums, theaters, monuments and libraries are there in Switzerland? How many people use cultural offerings and for what purpose? How many people are culturally active themselves in their free time and in what activities? What financial contribution do the public sector or foundations make to culture? How many people work in the cultural industry? Answers to these questions are provided by the "Pocket statistics on culture in Switzerland".
The brochure of the Federal Office of Culture and the Federal Statistical Office is published in print and online in all four national languages.
