National expenditure on music and performing arts in Israel 2014-2021
Spending on music and performing arts in national expenditure on culture, entertainment and sports in Israel reached 13 billion Israeli shekels (3.6 billion U.S. dollars) in 2021. Overall, the spending increased during the period under review, except for a decline in 2020. A possible explanation for that decline might be the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which led Israel to impose restrictions on cultural institutions and sports events. A total of around 101.2 billion Israeli shekels (around 28.3 billion U.S. dollars) was spent during the period under review for this activity.
