Key Findings 1. Key Findings

1.1 Overall trends in visits to English Attractions 2006-2007 2007 was generally a warm year in England but rainfall was well above average, particularly during the summer months. In June and July, there were several periods of extreme rainfall which gave rise to widespread flooding in England with some locations – notably on the river Severn between Tewkesbury and Gloucester, the Thames upstream of , and South suffering record breaking flood levels. The peak summer months of July and August were also colder than average with September close to average for temperature and above average for sunshine. The autumn period generally was closer to average in terms of temperature, rainfall and sunshine levels (Source: MetOffice).

The 1,348 England visitor attractions that provided visit figures for both 2006 and 2007 reported a +3% increase in visitor admissions overall in 2007. This compares positively with 2006, when a +3 increase was also recorded for both years.

Visits to increased by +5% in 2007, emphasising the strong recovery reported in 2006 (a significant +9% increase) following the July bombings in London in 2005 (following a -5% decline in 2005).

Table A.1 England visit trends 2006-2007 - by attraction category (%)

Category Attractions sample % 07/06 Country parks 44 +8 Farms 33 +5 Gardens 93 +5 Historic houses/ 290 +1 Other historic properties 81 -3 Leisure/theme parks 33 +3 Museums/art galleries 415 +3 Steam/heritage railways 38 -1 Visitor/heritage centres 46 +12 Wildlife attractions/ 67 +4 Workplaces 48 -24 Places of worship 88 -* Other 72 +1 England (1,348) +3

The majority of categories showed growth in 2007, with a particularly strong increase in visitor/heritage centres (+12%). 1 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved Key Findings

As an overall category, museums/art galleries tend to benefit from wetter weather in terms of visits – this perhaps accounted for the +8% increase recorded in 2006. This strong performance has continued into 2007 with a further +3% increase recorded (no doubt also helped by the wet summer period in 2007).

As mentioned in last year’s report, outdoor attractions recorded strong increases in 2005, driven by the good weather, and despite the wetter weather recorded in 2006, many of these categories managed to maintain visits in 2006. This finding has also been reflected in 2007, when the generally wetter weather (particularly during the summer) would have been expected to have had an adverse effect on visits to outdoor attractions. However, country parks recorded a +8% increase, farms and gardens (both a +5% increase) and wildlife attractions/zoos (+4%).

As in 2006, visits to historic houses/castles increased slightly by +1% in 2007. The last two years have signalled a slight recovery following a -2% decline in 2005 and a - 1% decline in 2004.

Confirming findings from last year’s report, leisure/theme parks showed signs of a good recovery in 2007 (+3%) following a year of stability in 2006 (declining less than 1%) and a significant -6% decline in 2005. Although leisure/theme parks represent only around 3% of attractions, they account for 10% of visits.

Places of worship reported a change of less than 1% in 2007, following visits increasing by +3% in 2006 and 2005. As mentioned in last year’s report, the years immediately prior to this indicated a period of decline.

Workplaces reported a decline of -24% in 2007 – this was primarily driven by a large attraction reporting a significant decrease in visitors.

Reflecting the increases recorded in the 2006 report, visits to free attractions increased by +4% in 2007 – this was largely driven by a +5% increase reported by museums/art galleries for free attractions. Visits to paid attractions remained more stable, increasing by +1% - the same as reported in 2006 and 2005.

Geographic location Attractions sample % 07/06 Coastal (126) +* Rural (518) +1 Urban (452) +3 England (1,348) +3

Visits to urban attractions increased by +3% in 2007. Visits to coastal (less than 1%) and rural (+1%) remained relatively stable. As mentioned in last year’s report, the increase in urban attractions followed a +6% increase recorded in 2006 (following a - 1% decline in 2005). This reflects the strong performance of London attractions that have driven the increase in visits to urban attractions, as has the strong performance of museums/art galleries.

Table A.4 England visit trends 2006-2007 – by volume of visits (%)

Volume of visits Attractions sample % 07/06 20,000 or less (691) -1 20,001-50,000 (240) - 50,001-100,000 (163) +* 100,001-200,000 (124) +* Over 200,000 (130) +* England (1,348) +3

During 2007, there was relatively little change recorded between small and large attractions. A -1% decline was recorded for attractions with 20,000 visits or less and minor increases recorded for those with 50,000 visits or more (less than 1% for those with between 50,000 to 100,000, 100,000 to 200,000 and over 200,000 visits per year). These increases were primarily driven by a number of large attractions, particularly in the London and East regions, reporting substantial increases in visitors in 2007. A large proportion of these in the London region were museums/art galleries. These findings largely reflect those recorded in 2006 with a trend for visits to migrate away from the very smallest attractions continuing.

Table A.5 Overall visits trends 2006-2007 - by English Government Office Region (%)

Region Attractions sample % 07/06 North West (101) -4 North East (83) +3 Yorkshire/The Humber (113) +2 East Midlands (101) +3 West Midlands (106) +4 East (233) +9 London (94) +5 South East (257) +4 South West (260) -1 England (1,348) +3

Visits to attractions recorded growth in the majority of regions, with visits particularly strong in the East (+9%) – this increase was primarily driven by one large attraction that recorded a significant increase in visitor numbers. Continuing the strong recovery recorded in 2006, London reported a +5% increase in visits in 2007. As mentioned in

4 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved Key Findings last year’s report, London also tends to benefit from wetter weather – 2007 being similar in this respect to 2006 with a wetter than average summer period. With the exception of the North West (-4%) and South West (-1%), each of the other regions recorded slight increases in visits during 2007 of between +2% and +4%. The -4% decrease in the North West is noticeable given the +3% increase recorded in 2006 – this was largely driven by one large attraction reporting a significant decrease in visits in 2007.

1.2 Overall trends in admission prices 2006-2007 Table A.6 Adult admission prices 2006-2007 (paid admission) – by category (%)

Category Attractions Average adult % 07/06 charge Sample 2006 2007 Country parks (6) £3.61 £3.51 -3 Farms (26) £5.38 £5.83 +8 Gardens (55) £4.74 £4.86 +3 Historic houses/castles (90) £5.29 £5.19 -2 Other historic properties (32) £3.04 £2.92 -4 Leisure/theme parks (23) £8.89 £7.36 -17 Museums/art galleries (184) £3.59 £3.42 -5 Steam/heritage railways (33) £6.43 £6.33 -2 Visitor/heritage centres (17) £4.20 £3.67 -13 Wildlife attractions/zoos (46) £7.51 £7.30 -3 Workplaces (13) £4.42 £4.66 +5 Places of worship (7) £6.64 £6.36 -4 Other (51) £8.29 £7.90 -5 England (583) £5.18 £5.00 -3

Adult admission charges decreased by an average of -3% in 2007 – the first time since 2003 that a decrease has been recorded (+5% in 2003, +6% in 2004, +7% in 2005 and +8% in 2006). The average adult admission charge among paid attractions has fallen back to £5.00 - having passed the £5.00 barrier in 2006 (£5.18 in 2006).

This decline has been largely driven by significant decreases in admission at leisure/theme parks (-17%), visitor/heritage centres (-13%) and more importantly, given the relatively large sample size of 184 responding attractions in 2006 and 2007, museums/art galleries which recorded a -5% decrease.

5 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved Key Findings As in 2006, other historic properties reported the lowest average admission charges at £2.92, whilst the highest average admission charges were recorded for leisure/theme parks (£7.36) and wildlife attractions/zoos (£7.30).

1.3 Overall trends in gross revenue 2006-2007

Table A.7 Gross revenue trend 2006-2007 – by English GOR (%)

Gross revenues were reported to have increased by an average of +5% in 2007, a similar increase to that recorded in 2006, 2005 and 2004 (+7%).

The Yorkshire/The Humber region increased by +20% – this figure was driven by a number of attractions reporting significant increases in gross revenue in 2007. Attractions in the North West (+8%) and East regions (+8%) also reported high levels of growth.

Overall, just under half (47%) – the same as in 2006 – reported an increase in gross revenue from visitors in 2007. A fifth (19%) reported a decline, again similar to that observed in previous years - 2006 (20%), 2005 (21%) and 2004 (22%).

Across the different attraction categories, the variation in gross revenue recorded was more significant than in 2006.

Increases in gross revenue for other historic properties (+20%) and leisure/theme parks (+18%) significantly outperformed the attractions market as a whole. Please note the low sample base.

Other categories reporting increases in gross revenue higher than the England average were farms (+14%), historic houses/castles (+13%), steam/heritage railways (+12%) and gardens (+7%).

On the other hand, both visitor/heritage centres (-7%) and places of worship (-4%) recorded decreases in 2007.

1.4 Marketing expenditure trend 2006-2007

Table A.9 Movement in spend on marketing – by attraction category 2006- 2007 (%)

Category Sample Increase Similar Down Country parks (35) 14 74 11 Farms (30) 33 57 10 Gardens (57) 33 53 14 Historic houses/castles (88) 20 66 14 Other historic properties (46) 9 80 11 Leisure/theme parks (27) 30 48 22 Museums/art galleries (336) 20 70 10 Steam/heritage railways (37) 22 68 11 Visitor/heritage centres (44) 25 64 11 Wildlife attractions/zoos (54) 35 46 19 Workplaces (41) 12 68 20 Places of worship (53) 21 70 9 Other (62) 24 69 6 England (910) 22 66 12 Note: percentages read across

One in five (22%) attractions indicated an increase in marketing spend in 2007 when compared with 2006 and only 12% a decrease. This was very similar to that recorded in the past three years: . 2006 (24% recorded an increase and 11% a decrease) . 2005 (25% recorded an increase and 10% a decrease) . 2004 (25% recorded an increase and 13% a decrease)

As mentioned in last year’s report, this represents a slight tightening of budgets since 2003 when 30% of attractions indicated an increase and only 11% a decrease.

As noted in recent years, attraction categories most likely to state that their marketing expenditure had increased were wildlife attractions/zoos (35%) and farms (33%). Gardens have seen a significant 8% increase in marketing expenditure in 2007 (25% in 2006, 33% in 2007). Leisure/theme parks (30%) and visitor/heritage centres (25%) were also more likely than average to state an increase in their marketing expenditure in 2007.

8 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved Key Findings As in 2006, country parks (14%) and other historic properties (9%) were least likely to have increased their marketing spend in 2007.

Table A.10 Movement in spend on marketing – by English GOR 2006-2007 (%)

Region Sample Increase Similar Down North West (70) 33 61 6 North East (49) 18 64 18 Yorkshire/The Humber (79) 18 68 14 East Midlands (64) 20 67 13 West Midlands (74) 18 66 16 East (185) 24 63 13 London (49) 18 67 14 South East (172) 20 66 14 South West (168) 24 70 6 England (910) 22 66 12

Attractions in the North East (18%), Yorkshire/The Humber (18%), the West Midlands (18%) and London (18%) all recorded lower than average increases in their marketing expenditure. The North East also recorded the highest proportion of attractions to decrease their marketing spend (18%).

As noted in last year’s report, although London recorded an increase in visits (+5%), the proportions of attractions reporting increases and decreases in marketing expenditure was relatively similar to the attractions market as a whole.

1.5 Benchmarking against other survey outputs To add additional insight and context to the survey results we have integrated relevant results of other visitor monitoring surveys. The United Kingdom Tourism Survey (UKTS) represents the greatest opportunity as this survey records the volume, value and characteristics of domestic visitors to England. Also, the trend results from other surveys, including the IPS (International Passenger Survey) and accommodation occupancy surveys have been summarised in the next few paragraphs to provide a better understanding of how representative the volume of visits to attractions are of trends in the wider tourism industry.

It should be noted that given the differences in methodology and the subject matter of those surveys mentioned below, it is clearly not possible to make direct comparisons to the visitor attractions survey, and this should be borne in mind when interpreting the findings below. Nevertheless, the benchmarking comparisons hopefully add some additional contextual information to the report.

UKTS - Tourism Trips taken in the UK The UKTS survey is conducted continuously throughout the year, using face-to-face interviewing, as part of TNS’ in- omnibus surveys. Weekly omnibus surveys are conducted with a representative sample of 2,000 adults aged 16 and over within the UK. Respondents are asked whether they have taken trips in the UK in the previous four calendar weeks that involve at least one night away from home.

Compared to 2006, there was an overall decline in domestic tourism in the United Kingdom during the period from January to December 2007. Trips declined to 123.5 million (a fall of 2%) whilst the decrease in terms of bednights was smaller (1%). Spending rose from £20,965 million to £21,238 million – an increase of 1%, although it must be recognised that this does not take account of inflation – the 2007 spend would be an actual decrease in ‘real terms’.

Of more significance when compared to the performance of the attractions’ industry in England in 2007, the volume and value pattern for domestic tourism in England in January to December 2007 was very similar to that described for the UK as a whole. Once again, there were small decreases in terms of trips (-2%) and bednights (less than -0.5%) with minor growth for expenditure (+2%). Average length of stay was around 3 nights – a 1% increase on the previous year. Average spend per trip and per night increased by 4% and 2% respectively to £165 and £54 (historic prices). 10 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited.

A degree of caution has to be used when trying to correlate the UKTS results against the survey of visitor attractions. UKTS does not include day trippers, and only includes those staying away from home for one night or more in the survey. On the other hand, a large proportion of those visiting attractions are on a day trip from home. However, the topline comparisons are that UKTS recorded a decrease in numbers of trips in England in 2007 of -2% - this compares to the +3% increase for visitor attractions. The findings above illustrate a pattern of decline in UK domestic tourism when compared to 2006 with a year of stability recorded for visits to attractions with a small increase recorded.

To add a degree of context to the UKTS results, it is worthwhile examining some of the other tourism related data sources. Although not directly comparable to the visitor attractions survey, the findings nevertheless paint an interesting picture when comparing domestic versus outbound tourism.

Table A.12 overleaf compares UKTS data over the 2006 and 2007 period with data from the International Passenger Survey (IPS) which measures tourism by UK residents overseas. As the chart illustrates, whilst domestic tourism has exhibited a fairly steady decrease over this period (-2%), tourism abroad by UK residents increased (+2%).Figure 1 Do

Table A.12 Comparison of UK Domestic (UKTS) with UK Outbound (IPS)

When looking at the UK domestic tourism variations between 2006 and 2007 in Table A.12, across the January to December period, 5 of the 12 months recorded an increase in domestic trips over 2006 – February, March, May, October and November. For trips overseas however, the majority of months (9 out of 12) exhibited increases on the previous year.

It is interesting to compare the characteristics of UK residents’ tourism: domestic tourism as measured by UKTS (dark blue columns) has decreased by almost 2%, but this has been balanced by an increase in UK residents’ overseas tourism of around 2%. Given the relatively finite nature of holiday entitlement, this would tend to provide some evidence of a shift from domestic trips to overseas trips by UK residents over this period. The huge growth in European air routes by budget carriers over this period has increased the number of access points to the UK, but at the same time has made overseas travel more accessible and less expensive for UK residents.

All rights reserved Key Findings Although this is not directly comparable with the results of the visitor attractions survey, it still provides contextual information with regards to the correlation between UK residents taking trips overseas and trips domestically.

UK Occupancy Survey 2007 Reflecting the small changes between 2006 and 2007 for both the attractions survey (+3%) and trips taken in England (UKTS) -2%, occupancy rates for serviced accommodation in England recorded a +1% increase in 2007 comparative to 2006 (62% in 2006, 63% in 2007). Source: UK Occupancy Survey for Serviced Accommodation 2007.

Looking forward to 2008 Looking ahead to 2008, it is likely that the attractions industry will find this a challenging year with a combination of poor summer weather in England and the effects of the global credit crunch being felt by many. Looking at what has happened in Scotland, Historic Scotland recorded a -10% drop in visitor numbers across its properties during summer 2008 (when compared to summer 2007) – a loss of more than 200,000 visitors. The fall is blamed on the credit crunch and poor weather.

The indications from the England Attractions Monitor (an online quarterly panel of attractions in England) are that the weather and the economic downturn will impact on visitor numbers to attractions within England during 2008. The year started relatively well with a 19% increase recorded for Quarter 1 2008 comparative to the same period in 2007. By Quarter 2 however, the weather and economic downturn were starting to have an effect with a -8% decrease recorded in Quarter 2 2008 compared to the same period for 2007. It is possible that similar findings will be identified in the 2008 visitor attractions survey when it is published next year.

Summary

Although it is not possible to make direct comparisons between the surveys included above given the differences in survey methodology and subject matter, it is clear that any change between 2006 and 2007 for both UKTS, IPS and occupancy surveys were relatively minor. These surveys point to 2007 being a year of relative stability in the travel and tourism sector in England. Indications from other sources, such as Historic Scotland’s performance during the summer of 2008, and the results from the first two quarters of the England Attractions Monitor, suggest that the credit crunch – and to a lesser extent – the poor summer weather seen in 2008, all point to a more challenging year ahead for visitor attractions within England in 2008.

This report 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 Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Visitor Attraction Definition For the purposes 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.”

2.1 Research Objectives The purpose of the survey is to monitor trends in the visitor attraction sector in 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.

2.2 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.

TNS Travel & Tourism currently holds the contract for the survey in England and is responsible for the preparation of this report.

14 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved Introduction and Background It is important to highlight that major individual attractions can have a significant impact upon the proportion of visits within each region and attraction category. Their participation or non-participation in the survey year-on-year can result in significant fluctuations in the data within each region and attraction category.

It should also be noted that there is nearly always an element of survey variance when a long-running survey is transferred to a different organisation (in this case, from BDRC to TNS Travel & Tourism). Although every effort was made to ensure the survey methodology and procedures were as consistent as possible with previous years – the questionnaire was all but identical other than style and formatting improvements - with such a large sample base, different attractions will have responded this year for the first time. On the other hand, even though a great deal of effort was put into reminder questionnaire mailings and targeted telephone calls, some attractions who responded in previous years will have decided not to take part in this year’s survey.

2.3 Population, sample and response rate 5,735 English visitor attractions were invited to take part in the 2007 survey. Some 2,010 English visitor attractions provided visits figures for year 2007, an effective response rate of 35%.

A further 320 attractions (6%) responded but did not take part in the survey as they were either closed, could not provide visit figures for lack of information, they did not consider themselves to meet the definition of an attraction, or they did not wish to participate in the survey.

Response rates within the two attraction categories which account for over half of all English attractions – museums/art galleries (39%) and historic properties (42%) – were above average. Response rates were highest among steam/heritage railways (46%) and visitor/heritage centres (43%). As has been the case in recent years, workplaces (24%) and leisure/theme parks (25%) had the lowest response rates.

Nine in ten (91%) of operators provided details on methods used to calculate visitor numbers. The most frequent methods used to record visits data were ticket sales/group bookings (35%), followed by a manual count (26%). The proportions using each method were very similar to those observed in recent years.

2.4 Guide to the tables

Confidentiality Visit 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. 398 attractions requested that their visit figures remain confidential in 2007 compared with 376 in 2006 and 345 in 2005.

Estimates If operators have stated their visits are estimates in 2007, this is clearly indicated in section 7 with an ‘E’ following the number of visits.

Admission

Tables in section 7 include the charging status of each visitor attraction. ‘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 (if provided by the attraction in the 2007 survey).

Symbols

In the table, 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. NA (not available) indicates that the sample base value is too low to allow robust analysis of the data.

Sample Base Values

Please note that throughout the report the base values in the tables may not necessarily sum to the total sample size due to respondents leaving questions unanswered.

This chapter analyses trends in the number of visits to English attractions that provided data for both 2006 and 2007. 1,348 out of the 5,735 English visitor attractions mailed in the survey provided visits figures for both 2006 and 2007.

The 1,348 English visitor attractions that provided visits figures for both years reported an average of +3% in 2007 – the same as 2006. As observed in last year’s report, this follows an average decrease of less than 1% in 2005 and a slight increase of +1% in 2004. This followed two further years when the rate of increase in visits had been slowing, increasing by +8% in 2002 and +2% in 2003 – to aid interpretation, these % changes by year have been presented below: Year % 2007 +3% 2006 +3% 2005 -*% 2004 +1% 2003 +2% 2002 +8%

Between 2002 and 2004, attractions were recovering from the lower numbers of visitors caused by the Foot & Mouth epidemic and the events of September 11th (an overall decline of -2% was reported in 2001). In 2005, London attractions were badly affected by the July bombings in the capital which led to an annual decline in visits of - 5%. 2006 saw a strong recovery in London with visits increasing by +9% - the recovery emphasised in 2007 with a further +5% increase recorded.

Half of the attractions (51%) indicated they had benefited from an increase in visits (48% in 2006) while 39% reported a decline (the same figure as in 2006). This indicates that the overall +3% increase in visits across England has been generated by a relatively small proportion of attractions. As mentioned last year, the picture across England attractions as a whole may be less positive with the proportion of attractions reporting a fall in number of visits increasing in 2007 and 2006 when compared to 2005.

As in 2006, the majority of categories showed growth in 2007, with a strong increase in visits to visitor/heritage centres (+12%) - 72% reported an increase in visits compared with 51% among attractions as a whole. Museums/art galleries recorded a +3% increase in 2007, following a significant +8% increase in 2006. As mentioned in last year’s report, as an overall category, museums/art galleries tend to benefit from wetter weather in terms of visits. The exceptionally dry weather recorded in 2005 saw a corresponding -3% decrease in visits to museums/art galleries. The wetter 2006 and 2007 therefore represented more than just a strong recovery.

As observed last year, outdoor attractions recorded strong increases in visits during 2005, driven by the good weather, and despite the relatively wetter weather recorded in 2006, many of these categories managed to maintain visits in 2006. This finding has also been reflected in 2007, when the generally wetter weather (particularly during the summer period) would have been expected to have had an adverse effect on visits to outdoor attractions. However, country parks recorded a +8% increase, farms and gardens (both a +5% increase) and wildlife attractions/zoos (+4%).

20 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited. All rights reserved England Visit Trends 2006-2007 As in 2006, visits to historic houses/castles increased slightly by +1% in 2007. The last two years have signalled a slight recovery following a -2% decline in 2005 and a - 1% decline in 2004.

Confirming findings from last year’s report, leisure/theme parks showed signs of a good recovery in 2007 (+3%) following a year of stability in 2006 (declining less than 1%) and a significant -6% decline in 2005. Although leisure/theme parks represent only around 3% of attractions, they account for 10% of visits.

Places of worship reported a change of less than 1% in 2007, following visits increasing by +3% in 2006 and 2005. As observed in last year’s report, the years immediately prior to this indicated a period of decline.

Workplaces reported a decline of -24% in 2007 – this was primarily driven by a large attraction reporting a significant decrease in visitors.

Reflecting the increases recorded in the 2006 report, visits to free attractions increased by +4% in 2007. Visits to paid attractions remained more stable, increasing by +1% - the same as reported in 2006 and 2005.

Table 3.3 presents visit trends by free/paid admission within each category type. There are some notable shifts in visits to both free and paid attractions by attraction category type. As noted in last year’s report, given the relatively large sample size, museums/art galleries have had an impact on the increase in free attractions overall, with a +5% rise in free attractions recorded and a corresponding -5% decline in paid attractions in 2007.

21 W:\Current projects\173396 - VB Visitor Attractions 2007-08\Database\Reporting\MAIN REPORT © 2007 TNS UK Limited.

On the other hand, decreases were recorded in visits to paid attractions at other historic properties (-5%) and visits to free attractions at workplaces (-28%). Please note the low sample size.

During 2007, there was relatively little change recorded between small and large attractions. A -1% decline was recorded for attractions with 20,000 visits or less and minor increases recorded for those with 50,000 visits or more (less than 1% for those with between 50,000 – 100,000, 100,000 – 200,000 and over 200,000 visits per year). These increases were primarily driven by a number of large attractions, particularly in the London and East regions, reporting substantial increases in visitors in 2007. A large proportion of these in the London region were museums/art galleries. These findings largely reflect those recorded in 2006 with a trend for visits to migrate away from the very smallest attractions continuing.

The overall +3% increase in visits reported in 2007 was driven primarily by urban attractions which increased by +3%. Over half of urban attractions reported an increase in visits in 2007 – the same number as that recorded in 2006. Visits to rural (+1%) and coastal (less than 1%) attractions remained relatively stable. As with last year, the strong performance of London attractions has driven the increase in visits to urban attractions as has the strong performance of museums/art galleries.

Attractions with fewer than 30% of overseas visitors recorded a -1% decrease in 2007. Those attractions with over 30% of overseas visitors, conversely, recorded a +1% increase. Please note the low base size for attractions with over 30% of visitors.

As with last year, many of the attractions with over 30% of visitors are located in London and as a result these visits tend to mirror those for London as a whole. As detailed in section 3.1, visits to London attractions increased by +5% between 2006 and 2007.

Attractions with over 30% of visits made by children reported a -10% decrease in 2007 and those with fewer than 30% of children declined by -3%. This was driven by a number of attractions with between 20,000 and 100,000 visitors per annum who reported significant decreases in the proportion of child visits in 2007.

This chapter provides an analysis of trends by English Government Office Region (GOR). It is based on 1,348 attractions that provided visits figures for both 2006 and 2007. 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.

Visits to attractions showed growth in the majority of regions, although increases in visits were particularly strong in the East (+9%) – this was primarily driven by one large attraction recording a significant increase in visitor numbers. Continuing the strong recovery recorded in 2006, London reported a +5% increase in visits in 2007. As mentioned in last year’s report, London also tends to benefit from wetter weather – 2007 being similar in this respect to 2006 and experiencing a wet summer period.

The significant +9% increase in visits to the East was driven primarily by a +18% rise in visits to country parks and a 13% increase in visits to heritage/visitor centres. London attractions also recorded a strong +5% increase – driven primarily by a +25% increase in other historic properties and a +23% increase in wildlife attractions/zoos.

Visits to heritage/visitor centres increased for all regions except London (no percentage change), being driven primarily by the East Midlands (+30%) and West Midlands (+28%) regions.

The South West region recorded a minor decline of -1% largely driven by a -12% fall in museums/art galleries. This followed a +2% increase in visits overall in 2006 compared with declines in previous years.

Whilst visits to free attractions increased by +4% across England as a whole, this varied significantly by region. The increase in visits to free attractions was driven primarily by the South East (+12%) the East (+11%) and the West Midlands (also +11%). The East Midlands also recorded a notable increase for free attractions (+7%). The North West (-8%) and South West (-1%) were the only regions to record a decline in free attractions in 2007.

As with last year, there was also regional variation in visits to paid attractions. The East (+4%) and North East (+4%) reported the most notable increases. The West Midlands recorded no change and both the South West and the Yorkshire/The Humber regions recorded a -1% decrease for paid attractions. Other than the +4% recorded for the East and North East, changes in visits to paid attractions did not increase/decrease by more than 2% in any other regions.

Within London, attractions with more than 20,000 visitors recorded increases in visitors, with the biggest change being reported for those attractions with between 20,000 and 50,000 visitors (+2%). On the other hand, attractions in London with 20,000 or less visitors recorded a -3% decrease.

There was little difference in the volume of visits across all sizes of attractions in 2007, particularly for those attractions with 50,000 or more visitors where the change fell between -2% and +1%.

More variety was reported for attractions with fewer than 20,000 visitors per annum. The East region reported a small increase of less than 1%. All other regions reported no change compared to 2006 or a decrease of between -1% and -3%.

As with previous years, around two-thirds of English attractions (61%) charged entry to the main attraction in 2007 – similar to the proportions observed in 2006 (63%) and 2005 (64%). Some 583 attractions that were paid admission in both 2006 and 2007 provided admission charges in both years. The average adult admission charge fell by 18p in 2007, a decrease of -3%. This is the first time since 2002 that a decrease in the admission charge has been observed – 36p (+8%) in 2006, 30p (+7%) in 2005, 24p (+6%) in 2004 and 20p (+5%) in each of 2002 and 2003.

Three of the nine regions recorded an increase – Yorkshire/The Humber (+3%), the West Midlands (+1%) and London (less than 1%). The remaining six regions all recorded a drop in the adult admission charge ranging from -3% to -9%.

As highlighted in 2006, London continues to report the highest average admission charges (£5.93 in 2007), 93p higher than the average for England as a whole. Charges were lowest in the North East (£4.17), 83p lower than the England average.

Attractions with higher visitor admissions continue to report higher average adult admission charges. Whereas the average adult admission charge in 2007 was £3.62 among attractions with 20,000 or fewer visitors, among attractions with over 200,000 visitors average adult admission was £9.64.

Increases in average adult admission charges were lower among smaller attractions than larger attractions in 2007. This is the reverse of the position in 2006 but similar to that recorded in 2005. Attractions with 20,000 or fewer visitors actually recorded a -10% decrease in 2007 and those with between 20,000 and 50,000 visitors recorded a change of less than 1%. Attractions with over 50,000 visitors per annum recorded increases in admission charge of between +3% and +4%.

The majority of attraction categories recorded a decrease in adult admission charge in 2007 – this ranged from -2% to -17%. Museums/art galleries, one of the larger categories, reported a -5% decline. Note small sample sizes for some attraction categories.

Adult admission charges continued to vary considerably in 2007 according to attraction category. Other historic properties recorded the lowest admission charge – at £2.92 – and leisure/theme parks the highest (at £7.36) – as with previous years, this is primarily driven by approximately ten leisure/theme parks charging over £15 per adult for admission.

6.1 Gross revenue trend 2006-2007 Attractions were asked to compare their gross revenue between 2006 and 2007 and detail the overall 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.

1,000 visitor attraction operators in England provided information on their gross revenue trend in the 2007 survey.

Overall, less than half (47%) reported an increase in gross revenues from visitors in 2007, similar to the proportion observed in each of the past three years (47% in 2006, 45% in 2005 and 2004). A fifth (19%) reported a decrease, again similar to that reported in each of the past three years (20% in 2006, 21% in 2005, 22% in 2004). Gross revenues were reported to have increased by an average of +5% in 2007, a similar increase to that recorded in 2006 – 2004 (+7%).

Six of the nine regions saw an increase in gross revenue in 2007, with Yorkshire/The Humber reporting the highest level of growth (+20%) – this was mainly driven by a number of large attractions reporting significant increases in their gross revenue. The North West reported no change in growth in 2007 and the West Midlands and South West a -4% and -3% decrease respectively.

6.2 Marketing expenditure trend 2006-2007 This section examines the movement in marketing spend at attractions between 2006 and 2007. Attractions were asked to indicate whether spend had increased, decreased or remained similar compared with 2006. 910 attractions answered this question. Actual expenditure was not sought.

All rights reserved Revenue & Marketing Expenditure Trends 2006-2007 22% of attractions indicated an increase in marketing spend in 2007 when compared to 2006 and only 12% a decrease. As highlighted in last year’s report, these figures have always been similar to previous years: . 2006 (24% recorded an increase and 11% a decrease) . 2005 (25% recorded an increase and 10% a decrease) . 2004 (25% recorded an increase and 13% a decrease)

However, as observed last year, this represents a slight tightening of budgets since 2003 when 30% of attractions indicated an increase and only 11% a decrease.

Attraction categories most likely to state that their marketing expenditure had increased were similar to those noted in recent years. Wildlife attractions/zoos (35% increased marketing expenditure), farms (33% increase), gardens (33% increase) and leisure/theme parks (30%). Of note is that the proportion of steam/heritage railways who reported an increase in marketing expenditure fell from 32% in 2006 to 22% in 2007. A similar drop has also been reported for workplaces (29% in 2006 and 12% in 2007).

Other historic properties (9%), workplaces (12%) and country parks (14%) were least likely to have increased their marketing spend.

7. Trends in the number of visits to England Attractions 1989-2007

7.1 Trends in number of visits to visitor attractions 1989-2007

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 7.1 shows the indexed trend based on the visits (see Table 7.3) given by responding attractions. Because the number of responding attractions differs each year (see Table 7.2), 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 7.2 shows the number of responding attractions in each survey year.

Table 7.3 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 2007 by responding attractions, together with topline trends. Comparative figures for 2006, 2005, 2004, and 2003 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 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 overleaf.

The report also contains an alphabetical index of attractions which indicates the category, GOR, county and district in which an attraction can be found.
