The UK Hobbies and Interests report identifies consumer attitudes towards hobbyists, key market drivers, and consumer hobbies and interests in the UK. This market report covers the market size, market forecast, market segmentation and industry trends for the Hobbies and Interests market in the UK.
Spending on hobbies and interests could be partly dampened by the rising cost-of-living crisis in the coming months. However, those who describe their situation as ‘healthy’, with money left over at the end of each month, are much more likely to spend time on their hobbies than those in less affluent financial situations, which should help to mitigate the impact.
Potentially, any further downturn in out-of-home leisure spend could even provide a further boost to lower-cost home-based alternatives.
The COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions created ideal conditions for hobbies. As society moves into a post-pandemic phase, where social restrictions are no longer deemed to be necessary, and competition from out-of-home leisure fully recovers, it is unlikely that activity will fully match the peak levels seen during 2020 and 2021.
However, a permanent transition to more flexible working arrangements, including more time spent at home, and a growing interest in wellness, stress management and work/life balance, are conducive to future consumer engagement with hobbies and interests.
