Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the box office industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Box Office Market Driver

Increase in number of movie screens is the major driver influencing the box office market growth. The availability of movies from different geographic regions, languages, and genres, along with rising disposable incomes, are attracting people to movie theaters. It is particularly evident in the emerging markets of developing countries. With consumers willing to spend more on entertainment, investments in establishing new digital movie theaters that provide an exceptional movie experience have gone up. The increasing number of theater screens will directly contribute to the growth of the global box office market. The number of digital screens (+17%) and premium large format screens (+11%) also saw double-digit growth globally by 2018. in 2021, 95% of the world s cinema screens are digital. In addition, in 2020, the number of digital cinema screens worldwide was over 203,000, including both digital 3D and digital non-3D theatre screens. Thus, the increasing number of movie screens is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.

Key Box Office Market Trend

Rising popularity of the box office is the major trend driving the box office market growth. The global box office market is gaining more prominence than local or regional box office markets because films are targeted to cater to an international audience. Hollywood, one of the biggest film industries in the world, generated more than 70% of its revenue in 2019 from the international market. Moreover, the rise in importance of the global box office in encouraging local box offices to create meaningful movies, thereby attracting more investments.Hollywood films are casting actors from China, South Korea, and India besides featuring locations from these countries to ensure better box office collections. For instance, Avengers: The Age of Ultron was filmed in South Korea, while Transformers: Age of Extinction was funded through Chinese investments. Indian actor Irrfan Khan was part of Jurassic World, whereas another Indian actor Deepika Padukone is part of the upcoming xXx: The Return of Xander Cage. Thus, the rising popularity is expected to drive the growth of the global box office market in the future

Key Box Office Market Challenge

The growing threat of piracy is a major hindrance to the box office market growth.  Pirated versions of most of the movies are available either on the Internet or in the form of DVDs at a nominal price. Piracy drastically affects the revenue of the global box office market, as it reduces the profit margin for distributors. For instance, the audio-visual industry in the UK loses $720 million every year to piracy, copyright theft, and copyright infringement..Apart from monetary losses, piracy also degrades the box-office value of acclaimed movies. For one, piracy is difficult to track. Experts can track some downloads from major piracy websites, but once that file is downloaded, it can be distributed and streamed to thousands of other viewers privately. Thus, the piracy of movies reduces the sales at the box office and thus poses a challenge to market growth.
