According to Billboard, Gen Z isn’t about alcohol consumption at shows.
In a recent study, they determined that folks born between 1997 and 2012 drink way less at shows compared to previous generations.
The outlet says Gen Z’s alcohol intake is roughly 25% less than other generations.
Resident and CEO Dayna Frank of First Avenue Productions explained why saying, “They’re either eating edibles before they come, or there’s more of a sober, mental health focus.”
She added, “Most of the ticket price goes on to the band, so really what [venues] subsist on is beverages. That’s not going to be a sustainable revenue stream.”
