There's no true "average", concert attendance ranges from zero to 100+ depending on how central live music is to your life.
Attendance by Fan Type
| Type | Shows Per Year |
|---|---|
| Casual listener | 0-2 |
| Regular fan | 3-8 |
| Dedicated live music fan | 10-30 |
| Superfan / tour follower | 30-100+ |
What Affects Attendance
- Location - Proximity to major cities and touring routes
- Income - Tickets, travel, and fees add up quickly
- Musical taste - Some genres tour more frequently than others
- Age and lifestyle - More free time often means more shows
- Local scene - Strong local music scenes encourage more frequent attendance
Why This Question Matters
If you're attending 5+ shows a year, you're building a meaningful concert history. Over a decade, that's 50+ experiences worth remembering. Over a lifetime? Hundreds.
Tracking helps you appreciate the scope of your live music life.
