VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 3 KEY FINDINGS

A. KEY FINDINGS

A.1 Overall trends in visits to English attractions 2003-2004

Whilst 2003 was the sunniest on record in England, beating the previous sunniest in 1995, 2004 saw the return of a more “traditional” English summer, with England experiencing the wettest summer since 1912, August was a particularly wet month. Parts of the UK such as the Midlands, Northern and Eastern England had double the usual amount of rainfall in August. The Met Office issued over 100 flash weather warnings across England in August 2004. The 16th August 2004 saw extensive localised flooding in Boscastle, Cornwall.

A slight “bounce-back” in visitor numbers was to be expected in 2004 as the tourism industry recovered from the negative factors affecting travel in the first half of 2003 such as the Iraq war and SARS virus.

The 2,099 England visitor attractions that provided visits figures for both 2003 and 2004 reported an average increase of +1% in 2004.

Table A.1 England visit trends 2003-2004 - by attraction category (%)

The majority of categories showed growth in 2004. However, visits to most attraction categories remained relatively stable in 2004 following some notable fluctuations between 2002 and 2003.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 4 KEY FINDINGS

Museums/art galleries, which represent around a third of all attractions, recorded a notable increase in visits (+4%) in 2004, following a year of stability in 2003. Growth in visits from the introduction of free entry to the previously paid entry national museums slowed as a result of the hot summer of 2003 (which also affected many other indoor attractions), but was reinvigorated in 2004.

Country parks (+4%) also continued their 2002/3 recovery after their decline in 2001. Farm attractions (which had seen the largest increase in visits in 2003), continued their recovery, albeit at a slower rate (+2%) than 2003.

Following their rise of +6% in 2003, driven primarily by the hot summer, visits to gardens declined by - 6% in 2004. Conversely, following recent declines, visits to places of worship (+1%) showed signs of stability in 2004.

The increase in visits during 2004 was driven by free attractions (+3%), particularly museums/art galleries and, to a lesser extent, country parks and places of worship (see Table 2.3). Visits to paid attractions remained stable.

Table A.3 England visit trends 2003-2004 - by geographic location (%)

Geographic location Attractions % 04/03 sample Coastal (214) -1 Rural (980) -* Urban (905) +3 England (2,099) +1

The overall increase in visits during 2004 was driven by a recovery among urban attractions (+3%), which had experienced a slight decline (–1%) in 2003 following the hot summer. Following strong years of recovery since 2001, visits to rural attractions stabilised in 2004 (-*%). Visits to coastal attractions declined slightly (-1%) in 2004, following a slight increase due to the hot summer in 2003 (+1%).

During 2004, the trend for visits to migrate away from smaller attractions to larger attractions has continued. Attractions with 20,000 visits or less reported a slight decline in visits (-2%), following two years in which their increase has been lower than at larger attractions. Conversely, attractions with over 200,000 visits recorded the highest level of increase (+2%) in 2004, driven by a recovery in visits to some of the major national free museums and art galleries following the hot summer of 2003.

It should be noted that up to 2002, results were analysed by Regional Tourist Board areas. As the regional tourism organisations have been restructured within the Regional Development Agencies framework, the Government Office Regions (GOR), to which RDA areas correspond, have been used in 2003 and 2004 for regional analysis .

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 6 KEY FINDINGS

Visits to London attractions recovered strongly in 2004 (+6%), more than compensating for the decline of -2% in 2003 (London was particularly affected by the summer heat of 2003). The West Midlands, second only behind London in terms of its representation of urban attractions, also increased slightly (+2%). Conversely, the South West (which benefited from the hot weather in 2003), experienced a slight decline in visits during 2004. Visits to each of the other GORs remained relatively stable in 2004.

A.2 Overall trends in admission prices 2003-2004

Table A.6 Adult admission prices 2003-2004 (paid admission) – by category (%)

Average adult admission charges in 2004 varied greatly amongst categories, ranging from £2.91 for other historic properties to £9.84 for leisure/theme parks. Admission prices increased by an average of +6% in 2004, similar to that observed in 2003 (+5%).

Admission charge increases among the two attraction categories representing the highest numbers of paid attractions, historic houses/castles and museums/art galleries, were slightly lower than for England as a whole (+5% and +4% respectively).

Categories with the highest increases in adult admission charges in 2004 were steam/heritage railways (+14%), country parks (+11%) - (however note small sample size) and farms (+10%). Farms also recorded the highest increase in admission charges in 2003 (+8%).

Overall just under half of English attractions (45%) reported an increase in gross revenue from visitors in 2004, slightly lower than that observed in 2003 (53%). Just under a quarter (22%) reported a decrease, slightly higher than in 2003 (18%). The average change reported in 2004 was +7%, again slightly lower than that observed in either 2003 (+10%) or 2002 (+11%). All regions saw an increase in gross revenue in 2004, but London (+16%), the North West (+11%) and South West (+10%) attractions reported the highest average levels of growth.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 8 KEY FINDINGS

However, there were significant variations across the categories. Despite a slight decline in visits and only an average increase in admission charges, leisure/theme parks recorded the highest average increase in gross revenue in 2004 (+19%), as was the case in 2003 (+18%). Farms (+17%) and country parks (+14%) also recorded significant average increases in gross revenue, reflecting the higher than average increases in admission charges at attractions within these categories.

The average increase in gross revenue at museums/art galleries (+9%) was slightly above the average for England as a whole, although not as high as might have been expected given the significant increase in visits (+4%). Wildlife attractions/zoos (+9%) and workplaces (+9%) also recorded notable average increases in gross revenue.

25% of attractions indicated an increase in marketing spend in 2004 when compared to 2003 and only 13% a decrease. However, this represents a slight tightening of budgets since 2003 when 30% of attractions indicated an increase and only 11% a decrease.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 9 KEY FINDINGS

Wildlife attractions/zoos (40%), farms (39%) and leisure/theme parks (38%) were most likely to state that their marketing expenditure had increased. However, it should also be noted that 16% of leisure/theme parks stated that their marketing expenditure had decreased, a higher proportion than any other attraction category. Visitor/heritage centres (15%) and other historic properties (15%) were also slightly more likely than other attraction categories to record a decrease in expenditure.

Each region recorded a fairly similar proportion of attractions that had increased their marketing expenditure. Only Yorkshire/The Humber (18%) recorded a significantly lower proportion of attractions that had increased their marketing expenditure. Conversely, despite a significant average increase in visits, 19% of attractions in London recorded a decline in their marketing expenditure, a higher proportion than in any other region.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 10 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

1. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

Visitor Attraction Trends England 2004 presents the findings of the Survey of Visits to Visitor Attractions undertaken in England by VisitBritain. The report provides a comprehensive England-wide analysis of trends plus visits data for individual attractions. Separate reports are produced by the national tourist organisations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales giving results for their own countries.

Visitor Attraction Definition For the purpose of the survey, the definition of a visitor attraction is: “..an attraction where it is feasible to charge admission for the sole purpose of sightseeing. The attraction must be a permanently established excursion destination, a primary purpose of which is to allow access for entertainment, interest, or education; rather than being primarily a retail outlet or a venue for sporting, theatrical, or film performances. It must be open to the public, without prior booking, for published periods each year, and should be capable of attracting day visitors or tourists as well as local residents. In addition, the attraction must be a single business, under a single management, so that it is capable of answering the economic questions on revenue, employment etc.”

As there are a number of attractions which are primarily retail outlets but have an attraction element, a set of guidelines have been included with the questionnaire since 2001 asking such attractions to take part only if they could provide data for the attraction element itself. This set of guidelines can be found in Appendix 2.

1.1 Research Objectives

The purpose of the survey is to monitor trends in the visitor attraction sector throughout England and to improve understanding of the dynamics of the sector. The findings contribute to regional and national estimates of the economic impact of tourism and inform regional development and planning work. The results of the survey allow operators to benchmark their operation within their category, within their region and across the sector as a whole.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 11 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

1.2 Survey Method

The survey was carried out by means of a self-completion questionnaire mailed to all known English visitor attractions which met, as far as could be determined, the definition of a visitor attraction used in the survey. A copy of the questionnaire used can be found in Appendix 2.

MEW Research currently holds the contract for the survey in England and is responsible for the preparation of this report.

1.3 Population, sample and response rate

4,854 English visitor attractions were invited to take part in the 2004 survey. Some 2,244 English visitor attractions provided visits figures for year 2004, an effective response rate of 46%.

A further 344 attractions (7%) responded, of which 35 attractions indicated that they were closed in 2004 (23 temporarily, 12 permanently), 136 that they could not provide visit figures for lack of information, 43 that they did not consider themselves to meet the definition of an attraction and 130 that they did not wish to participate in the survey.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 12 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

Response rates within the two attraction categories which account for over half of all English attractions – museums/art galleries (51% response) and historic properties (48% response) – were slightly above average. Response rates were also high among farms (54%), visitor/heritage centres (53%) and ‘other’ attractions (58%). As was the case in 2003, leisure/theme parks (26%), workplaces (31%) and wildlife attractions (34%) had the lowest response rates.

Table 1.2 Methods used by visitor attractions to record visits

Methods used to record data Attractions Sample (2,244) % Ticket or group bookings 52 Manual count 33 Mechanical or electronic 11 Estimate 10 Sample count 7 Other 4 Not stated 3

Almost all operators (97%) provided details on methods used to calculate visitor numbers. Some may have used more than one method, hence the total exceeds 100%. The most frequent methods used to record visits data were ticket sales/group bookings, followed by a manual count. The proportions using each method were similar to those observed in 2003.

1.4 Guide to the tables

Confidentiality Visits figures for individual attractions do not appear in this report if the attraction operator did not authorise them for publication. Data provided by operators who requested confidentiality is included in the aggregated calculations. 395 attractions requested that their visits figures remain confidential in 2004.

Estimates If operators have stated their visits are estimates, this is clearly indicated in Section 6 with an ‘E’ following the number of visits.

Responding sample sizes In most of the tables, the number of attractions providing information is shown in brackets in the first column of figures under ‘(Attractions sample)’. In tables relating to visits, the number of visits reported by responding attractions is shown instead under ‘(Visits sample)’. The sample sizes vary between tables as the number of attractions responding to individual questions varied.

Admission Tables in Section 6 include the charging status of each visitor attraction (in the column entitled ‘Entry’). ‘F’ indicates that admission to the main attraction is free of charge. However, it should be noted that some free attractions may charge for entry to particular parts of the attraction or special exhibitions. Where an attraction charges admission for the main attraction element, the adult admission price is noted.

Symbols In the tables, an asterisk is used to indicate a percentage is less than 0.5%. A plus or minus sign indicates whether the value is positive or negative.

2. ENGLAND VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

This chapter analyses trends in the number of visits to English attractions that provided data for both 2003 and 2004. 2,099 out of the 4,854 English visitor attractions mailed in the survey provided visits figures for both 2003 and 2004.

The 2,099 English visitor attractions that provided visits figures for both years reported an average increase of +1% in 2004. The rate of increase has slowed slightly from that observed in 2003 (+2%) and significantly from that observed in 2002 (+8%), when attractions were recovering from the losses caused by the Foot & Mouth epidemic and September 11th (an overall decline of -2% was reported in 2001.) 45% of attractions indicated they had benefited from an increase in visits (54% in 2003) while 41% reported a loss (34% in 2003) in visits.

2003 was the sunniest on record in England, beating the previous sunniest in 1995. It was also the 2nd driest year since 1766. This tended to favour outdoor attractions over indoor attractions in 2003. 2004 saw a return to typical weather patterns, which benefited museums/art galleries in particular.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 16 ENGLAND VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

Museums/art galleries recorded a notable increase in visits (+4%) in 2004, following a year of stability in 2003. Growth in visits from the introduction of free entry to the previously paid entry national museums slowed as a result of the hot summer of 2003 (which also affected many other indoor attractions), but was reinvigorated in 2004. The most notable positive factor mentioned by museums/art galleries as influencing visits in 2004 was the introduction of new exhibitions/additional attractions. 18% of all museums/art galleries mentioned this as a positive factor.

Country parks (+4%) and farms (+2%) also continued their 2002/3 recovery after their decline in 2001. Steam/heritage railways (+3%) and other historic properties (+3%) also reported notable increases in visits in 2004.

Following their rise of +6% in 2003, driven primarily by the hot summer, visits to gardens declined by - 6% in 2004. Over half (57%) of gardens reported a decline in visits during 2004, with 54% of all gardens citing the weather as the most important negative factor influencing visits in 2004.

Conversely, following recent declines, visits to places of worship (+1%) showed signs of stability in 2004. Positive factors influencing this recovery were more likely to be general tourism/economic market changes rather than specific improvements to the places of worship themselves.

The increase in visits to free attractions has been driven particularly by museums/art galleries (+5%) and, to a lesser extent, country parks (+3%) and places of worship (+4%). Increases among other historic properties (+12%) and farms (+4%) are noteworthy, although one should beware of the small base sizes within each of these free sectors.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 17 ENGLAND VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

The apparent overall stability within the paid attractions sector masks some significant variations between the attraction categories. Gardens (-8%) reported a significant decline in visits, whilst visitor/heritage centres (+7%) and country parks (+6%) both reported notable increases.

During 2004, the trend for visits to migrate away from smaller attractions to larger attractions has continued. Attractions with 20,000 visits or less reported a slight decline in visits (-2), following two years in which their increase has been lower than at larger attractions. Conversely, attractions with over 200,000 visits recorded the highest level of increase (+2%) in 2004, driven by a recovery in visits to some of the major national free museums and art galleries following the hot summer of 2003.

The overall increase in visits during 2004 was driven by a recovery among urban attractions (+3%), which had experienced a slight decline (–1%) in 2003 following the hot summer. Almost half (49%) of urban attractions recorded an increase in visits in 2004. Museums/art galleries drove this increase among urban attractions.

Following strong years of recovery since 2001, visits to rural attractions stabilised in 2004 (-*%). Rural attractions were a particular beneficiary of the hot weather in 2003, increasing visits by +6%.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 19 ENGLAND VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

Visits to coastal attractions declined slightly (-1%) in 2004, following a slight increase due to the hot summer in 2003 (+1%). The weather was the most influential negative factor upon visits, mentioned by 36% of all coastal attractions as the most important factor in 2004.

Although one should note the low base size for attractions with over 30% of visits by overseas visitors, visits to these attractions increased by an average of +8%. This represents a significant recovery following the decline of –3% in 2003.

Many of the attractions with over 30% overseas visits are situated in and around London. As detailed in Section 3.1, London was the principal generator of increases in visits between 2003 and 2004.

2.7 Factors affecting visits to attractions in 2004

Visitor attraction operators were asked to state which factors they believed had influenced visits to their attraction in 2004, whether positive or negative. In addition, they were asked to identify separately the most important factor (positive and negative). As a wide range of individual factors were mentioned, often by a small proportion, they have been grouped by type of response. A summary of the factor groupings is presented in the following section. Proportions are based on all attractions that mentioned any positive factor (57% of all attractions).

Table 2.8 Positive factors influencing visits to attractions in 2004

Most important factor Factors receiving any mention Events/exhibitions improvement (26%) Events/exhibitions improvement (35%) Weather (14%) Weather (18%) Other site improvement (12%) Other site improvement (16%) Becoming better known/interested/area improving (11%) Becoming better known/interested/area improving (18%) Advertising/marketing (10%) Advertising/marketing (20%) Facility improvement/refurbishment/investment (8%) Facility improvement/refurbishment/investment (13%) Publicity/PR (8%) Publicity/PR (18%) Tourism/economic market changes (5%) Tourism/economic market changes (7%) Other (5%) Other (10%)

The most notable difference between 2003 and 2004 in terms of positive factors mentioned, was the weather. The hot summer of 2003 induced 47% of those attractions that mentioned a positive factor, to cite the weather as a positive. In 2004, this declined to just 18%, with only 14% mentioning the weather as the most positive factor.

Improvements in events/exhibitions (35%) were the most frequently mentioned positive factors in 2004, with 26% mentioning these as the most important positive factors. This represents a significant increase on 2003 (16%). This was particularly likely to be mentioned as the most important factor by museums/art galleries (37%), with particular emphasis upon new exhibitions/attractions (24%).

Advertising/marketing was mentioned as a positive factor by 20% of attractions in 2004, a slight decline on 2003 (29%). Advertising/marketing encompasses any mention of new, more or better advertising or marketing, including all materials and promotion. Whilst publicity/PR was seen as the most important positive factors by only 8% of attractions, it was mentioned by 18% of attractions as a positive factor at all.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 21 ENGLAND VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

Facility improvement/refurbishment/investment was mentioned by 13% of attractions and included any site refurbishments (5%), new, more or better facilities (3%), catering (2%), external investment (1%), transport (1%) and retail (1%).

Table 2.9 Negative factors influencing visits to attractions in 2004

Most important factor Factors receiving any mention Weather (49%) Weather (54%) Facility decline/refurbishment/investment (12%) Facility decline/refurbishment/investment (19%) General visitor decline/competition/area declining (12%) General visitor decline/competition/area declining (22%) Advertising/marketing/PR (7%) Advertising/marketing/PR (14%) Tourism/economic market changes (6%) Tourism/economic market changes (11%) Other site decline (6%) Other site decline (9%) Events/exhibitions decline (6%) Events/exhibitions decline (9%) Other (2%) Other (7%)

Whilst the weather was less likely to be mentioned as a positive factor in 2004 than in 2003, it was significantly more likely to be mentioned as a negative factor. The weather was mentioned by 54% of attractions as a negative factor, with 49% mentioning the weather as the most important negative factor compared with just 24% in 2003. Coastal (59%) and rural (59%) attractions were equally likely to mention the weather as the most important negative factor. Similarly, outdoor attractions such as gardens (79%), farms (78%), wildlife attractions/zoos (71%), leisure/theme parks (71%) and country parks (70%) were most likely to mention the weather as the most important negative factor.

Facility decline/refurbishment/investment decline was mentioned as a negative factor by 19% of attractions. This included a wide range of factors, the most frequently mentioned of which were access to the attraction (3%), closed/part closed for refurbishment (3%), lack of parking (3%), and an inability to afford to invest/budget issues (3%).

22% of attractions mentioned a general visitor decline/competition/area declining. General competition (11%), expensive/unpopular area to visit (5%), poor location (4%) and the novelty factor wearing off (3%) were most frequently mentioned.

Tourism/economic market changes were mentioned by only 11% of attractions compared with 29% in 2003. The more stable geo-political situation, growth of the global economy and favourable movements in the exchange rate with the Euro all contributed to an improvement in inbound travel during 2004.

3. ENGLISH GOVERNMENT OFFICE REGIONS VISIT TRENDS 2003-2004

This chapter provides an analysis of trends by English Government Office Region (GOR). It is based on 2,099 attractions that provided visits figures for both 2003 and 2004. The trends in these tables should be treated with caution due to the smaller number of attractions when the data is broken down within region.

It should also be noted that up to 2002 results were analysed by Regional Tourist Board areas. As the regional tourism organisations have been restructured within the Regional Development Agency framework, the Government Office Regions, to which RDA areas correspond, are now being used for regional analysis.

The West Midlands, second only behind London in terms of its representation of urban attractions, also increased slightly (+2%).

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 23 ENGLISH GOVERNMENT OFFICE REGIONS VISIT TRENDS

Conversely, the South West (which benefited from the hot weather in 2003), experienced a slight decline in visits during 2004 (-2%). Although visits to the East Midlands region declined by only –1% overall, 48% of attractions in the region reported a decline in visits in 2004, more than any other region. Visits to each of the other GORs remained relatively stable in 2004.

The North East experienced only a modest increase in visits during 2004, following dramatic increases in the recent past (+16% in 2003 and +18% in the Northumbria RTB in 2002).

3.2 Visit trends 2003-2004 by attraction category by English GOR

The trends in this table should be treated with particular caution since these are based in many regions on very small samples of attractions providing visits data in both 2003 and 2004.

The increase in visits to London in 2004 was driven primarily by a recovery in visits to museums/art galleries (+7%) and, to a lesser extent, increases in visits to historic houses/gardens (+5%). Similarly, the increase in visits to the West Midlands region was also driven by an increase in visits to museums/art galleries (+11%).

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 24 ENGLISH GOVERNMENT OFFICE REGIONS VISIT TRENDS

Whilst visits to museums/art galleries increased by +4% across England as a whole, not every region experienced an increase. Visits to museums/art galleries in the South West declined by –4%, in the East Midlands by –2% and in the North West by –1%.

The + 4% increase in visits to country parks across England was driven primarily by an increase in visits of +11% in the East, a region which contains over a quarter of the country parks responding to the survey.

Visits to gardens declined in every region except Yorkshire/The Humber and London, although the decline was particularly marked in the South West (-15%), a region which contains over a quarter of all gardens responding to the survey. A further quarter of responding gardens were located in the South East, a region which experienced a -5% decline in visits to gardens in 2004.

Conversely, visits to free attractions in the South East declined by –3%.

There was also regional variation in visits to paid attractions, with London reporting the only significant increase in visits (+4%) and the East (-4%), East Midlands (-3%) and South West (-2%) each recording notable declines.

The increase in visits among London attractions was driven primarily by the medium to large scale attractions whose visits number 20,000 or more. Indeed, visits to attractions in London with less than 20,000 visits declined by –2%. This represents a reversal of the pattern noted in 2003 which saw visits to these smaller attractions increase at the expense of the larger attractions.

Attractions with over 200,000 visits increased their visits within every region apart from the South West (-2%) and East Midlands (-3%) in 2004. Furthermore, the South West was one of only three regions to experience a decline among these largest attractions in 2003.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 26 ENGLISH GOVERNMENT OFFICE REGIONS VISIT TRENDS

The slight decline in visits to coastal attractions was driven by decreases in visits to the South East (- 3%), South West (-3%) and East (-2%) regions, which between them, account for 79% of all responding coastal attractions in England.

The notable increases in visits to rural attractions in 2003 have been replaced by stability in 2004 across all regions.

Just over three fifths of English attractions (63%) charged entry to the main attraction in 2004, the same proportion as observed in 2003. Some 1,072 attractions that were paid admission in both 2003 and 2004 provided admission charges in both years. The average adult admission charge rose by 24p in 2004, an increase of 6%. This was a slightly greater increase than that observed in both 2003 and 2002 (which saw increases of 20p, 5%, in both years).

Attractions with higher visitor admissions tended to record higher average adult admission charges. Whereas the average adult admission charge in 2004 was £3.10 among attractions with 20,000 or fewer visits, among attractions with over 200,000 visits average adult admission was £8.62. Percentage increases in average adult admission charges were similar regardless of the volume of admissions. Increases only varied from +4% (13p) at attractions with less than 20,000 visits to +7% (28p) at attractions with 20,000 to 50,000 visits and +7% (58p) at attractions with over 200,000 visits.

The two attraction categories representing the highest proportion of paid attractions, museums/art galleries and historic houses/castles (representing over half of paid attractions), both reported admission charge increases slightly below those for attractions as a whole - +4% and +5% respectively.

Categories with the highest percentage increases in adult admission charges in 2004 steam/heritage railways (+14%), country parks (+11%) and farms (+10%). However, one should note the low base sizes for the calculations.

Categories with the lowest increases in average adult admission charges were workplaces (+1%) and other attractions (+2%). Again, one should note the low bases sizes for the calculations.

Attractions were asked the trend in their gross revenue from visitors in 2004 compared with 2003 and the percentage change. It should be noted that the average changes below are calculated from percentage changes reported per attraction, not changes in actual revenue figures.

1,786 visitor attraction operators in England provided information on their gross revenue trend in the 2004 survey.

Overall just under half of English attractions (45%) reported an increase in gross revenue from visitors in 2004, lower than that observed in 2003 (53%). Around a third (32%) reported that gross revenue had been similar to that of 2003 and 22% reported a decrease (compared with 18% in 2003). The average change reported in 2004 was +7%, slightly lower than that observed in each of 2003 (+10%) and 2002 (+11%), but still a marked increase on that observed in 2001 (+1%).

With the exception of gardens, whose gross revenues declined by an average of –1% in 2004 reflecting the decline in visits, all other attraction categories recorded increases in gross revenue in 2004 compared with 2003. Gardens was the only category that reported a higher proportion of attractions with decreasing revenue in 2004 (35%) than increasing revenue (34%).

There were significant variations across the categories. Despite a slight decline in visits and only an average increase in admission charges, leisure/theme parks recorded the highest average increase in gross revenue in 2004 (+19%), as was the case in 2003 (+18%). Farms (+17%) and country parks (+14%) also recorded significant average increases in gross revenue, reflecting the higher than average increases in admission charges at attractions within these categories. Indeed, 60% of farms reported an increase in revenue, a higher proportion than any other category. Country parks reported the lowest proportion of attractions with decreasing revenue (8%).

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 33 REVENUE AND MARKETING EXPENDITURE TRENDS 2003-2004

The average increase in gross revenue at museums/art galleries (+9%) was slightly above the average for England as a whole, although not as high as might have been expected given the significant increase in visits (+4%). The proportion of museums/art galleries reporting similar levels of revenue to 2003 was high (41%).

Wildlife attractions/zoos (+9%) and workplaces (+9%) also recorded notable average increases in gross revenue.

Historic houses/castles also reported lower than average increases in gross revenue (+3%) in 2004, reflecting the slight decline in visits to attractions within this category (-1%).

Attractions across all size bands reported similar positive average increases in gross revenue. However, the proportions of attractions within each category recording increases in gross revenue varied significantly. Attractions with over 100,000 visits recorded higher proportions of attractions with revenue increases than attractions with 50,000 visits or less. This was also the case in 2003.

Average increases in gross revenue were highest among urban attractions (+8%) in 2004, reflecting the high proportion of urban attractions in London (which reported average gross revenue increases of +16%).

Coastal and rural attractions reported smaller average increases in gross revenue (+6%), but higher proportions of attractions reporting an increase in revenue (50% and 46% respectively).

5.2 Marketing expenditure trend 2003-2004

This section examines the movement in marketing spend at attractions between 2003 and 2004. Attractions were asked to indicate whether spend had increased, decreased or remained similar compared with 2003. 1,652 attractions answered this question. Actual expenditure was not sought.

Table 5.7 Movement in spend on marketing – by attraction category 2003-2004 (%)

25% of attractions indicated an increase in marketing spend between 2003 and 2004 and only 13% a decrease. Whilst a greater proportion of attractions reported an increase than a decrease, this represents a slight tightening of budgets since 2003 when 30% of attractions indicated an increase and only 11% a decrease.

Museums/art galleries were slightly less likely to report an increase in marketing expenditure (22%) than attractions as a whole and significantly more likely to report expenditure at a similar level to 2003. This was similar to the proportions reported by museums/art galleries in 2003.

VISITOR ATTRACTION TRENDS ENGLAND 2004 36 REVENUE AND MARKETING EXPENDITURE TRENDS 2003-2004

The proportion of historic houses/castles reporting an increase in marketing expenditure has declined significantly since 2003. 23% of attractions within this category reported an increase in expenditure in 2004 compared with 34% in 2003.

Table 6.1 Trends in number of visits to UK attractions 1989-2004 Indices 1989=100 Constant samples (from one year to next only)

As responding attractions tend to vary between years, operators are asked in each survey year to provide the number of visits for both the survey year and the previous year. This enables the trend between any two years to be calculated based on the same attractions.

Table 6.1 shows the indexed trend based on the visits (see Table 6.3) given by responding attractions. Because the number of responding attractions differs each year (see Table 6.2), the percentage change between any two years is applied each time to the previous year’s index to take account of the varying sample sizes each year.

Table 6.2 shows the number of responding attractions in each survey year.

Table 6.3 shows the number of visits to responding attractions. (Note: it does not include estimates of non-responding attractions. Therefore these figures do not represent the total market).

This section of the report lists visits figures for 2004 by responding attractions, together with topline trends. Comparative figures for 2003, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are also shown. It should be noted that this report lists individual visits figures for attractions which authorised publication only. Country parks have been excluded from the list of major paid and free attractions, as counting methods are liable to considerable variation.

There are three sections:

• Major attractions in England by category type • Major free and paid attractions by Government Office Region (GOR) • Comprehensive alphabetical list of all attractions by category type within GOR

Visits are listed under twelve broad attraction categories, detailed below.

Appendix 3 contains an alphabetical index of attractions which indicates the category, GOR, county and district an attraction can be found.

Visits Figures These are recorded in the columns ‘2000’, ‘2001’, ‘2002’, ‘2003’ and ‘2004’. Data may not have been obtained for years 2000, 2001, 2002 or 2003. In this case,

• ‘DK’ indicates that data were not provided • ‘Not open’ indicates that the attraction had not yet opened to the public • ‘Closed’ indicates the attraction was temporarily closed during 2003, 2002, 2001 or 2000

Accuracy of Visits Figures If an ‘E’ follows the visits figure, this means that the figure provided by the operator is an estimate.

Percentage Change Only the percentage change 2004/2003 is presented in the tables. This is recorded in the column entitled ’% 04/03’. ‘n/a’ means that this is not applicable e.g. data was not provided/not available for both years.

Admission Charge The standard adult admission charge for the main attraction in high season is recorded in the column entitled ‘Entry’. ‘F’ indicates admission to the main attraction is free of charge

GUIDELINES TO HELP YOU COMPLETE THE QUESTIONNAIRE

VISITOR ATTRACTION DEFINITION: For the purpose of this research a Visitor Attraction is defined as:

..an attraction where it is feasible to charge admission for the sole purpose of sightseeing. The attraction must be a permanently established excursion destination, a primary purpose of which is to allow access for entertainment, interest, or education; rather than being primarily a retail outlet or a venue for sporting, theatrical, or film performances. It must be open to the public, without prior booking, for published periods each year, and should be capable of attracting day visitors or tourists as well as local residents. In addition, the attraction must be a single business, under a single management, so that it is capable of answering the economic questions on revenue, employment etc.

Organisations that are primarily a retail outlet, but which have an attraction element, should not take part unless separate figures can be provided for the attraction element alone.

SECTION ONE

1.1 Please verify the first year of opening to the public provided by your attraction in 2004. If missing or incorrect, please write in correct year.

1.2 In order to compare trends among different types of attraction, we have to code each attraction under a specific analysis category; even though more than one type of attraction may exist on the site. Below are the major category groupings on the questionnaire. Please verify the main attraction category that you are coded under for analysis purposes. If missing or incorrect, please delete and tick the correct one. Some examples are provided below to help guide your choice of category:

Survey Category Examples of other types of attraction in the category Castle / Fort Fort, Citadel, Defence Tower Country Park Forest Park Distillery/ Vineyard/ Brewery Cider Farm, Alcohol Centred Attraction Garden Arboretum, Botanical Garden Heritage / Visitor Centre Information/Orientation Centre, Park Ranger Centre, Heritage/Cultural Interpretation Centre Historic House/House and Garden/Palace House and Garden, Royal Residence Historic Monument/Archaeological Site Ancient Monument, Standing Stones Place of Worship Attractions of any religion that are still in use as places of worship, Churches, Chapels Other Historic Property Historic Ship, Lighthouse, Windmill, Watermill, Historic Workplace Leisure / Theme Park Entertainment Park, permanent funfair Museum and/or Art Gallery *including Industrial, Mining, Science, Transport Museums, and Galleries of Modern Art Farm/ Rare Breeds/ Shire Horse Centre Attractions involving enclosed farm animals Nature Reserve / Wetlands / Wildlife trips Attractions that contain natural habitat environments for fauna, birds and wildlife, including wildlife trips i.e. seal/dolphin watching Safari Park/ Zoo/ Aquarium/ Aviary Attractions involving enclosed wild animals/birds/reptiles/insects etc Steam/ Heritage Railway Steam or heritage railways in working condition (not museum) Other Historic/Scenic transport operator Sightseeing boat, chair lift, cable car Industrial/Craft Workplace Operating Industrial or craft attraction Science / Technology Centre Science, Technology or Environmental Centres that are not museums Other Cave, model village, pier, sports stadium tour, waxworks *Excludes contemporary art centres, galleries and antiques centres whose primary purpose is retailing.

SECTION TWO

2.1 The visitor numbers provided by your attraction for 2003 are shown here. Please verify these. If incorrect or missing please delete and enter correct figures. 2.2 In order to reflect the real trends in the attractions’ market during 2004, it is important that the visitor figures you provide are as accurate as possible.

If you are responsible for more than one attraction, please complete a separate questionnaire for each. House and garden attractions/estates with free entry to the garden/grounds, but a charge for entry to the house, should provide separate visitor figures for each if unable to complete a separate questionnaire.

The figures you provide for 2004 should preferably be for the calendar year, i.e. January to December. Please also tick the appropriate box to indicate whether the figures you provide are exact or an estimate.

Please ensure that visitor numbers include school children.

2.4 Please provide percentage breakdown of adults and children for 2004 not number of individuals. Please also indicate whether figures provided are exact or an estimate.

Please ensure that you include school children in your calculation (as adults or children, according to your pricing structure).

SECTION 3

3.1 Please remember to write in the percentage increase or decrease.

SECTION 4

4.1 To aid completion of this question, if employee numbers were provided in 2003, these are indicated on the left.

SECTION 5
