yesterday I was arguing with some friends on which of the industry between sports and entertainment industry, is the biggest in terms of revenue generation.

Sport industry includes Football,basketball,tennis...etc


while entertainment industry include music,movies,comedy....etc

I need your opinions

It may not seem so but the sporting industry is essentially a part of the entertainment industry.

They're not different.

It has to be Entertainment...

Movies and Video Games alone... and if you want to stretch it, books.

I even forgot music.
=====

Update:

Just checked numbers...

Global film industry revenue for 2018 = $136B

--

Top 5 Leagues revenue 2018:

1. NHL (Hockey US/Canada) = $3.7B
2. NBA = $4.8B
3. Premier League = $5.3B
4. Baseball (US/Canada) = $9.5B
5. American Football = $13 Billion

So when you add tennis, Formula 1, athletics, etc they won't still come close.

We've not added video games that did $43B in 2018. And Music that did $19B

jayz is an emerging billionaire with prospects
Yeah and most entertainers wealth are measured by their worth like endorsement deals(paid and unpaid),billed shows etc hence they don't have cash at hand like sportsmen, what mayweather is what is not in investments ,it's cash at hand, same goes for the regular soccer players that receives alert every 6 days.

A question like this requires some research and fact finding. Not guess work or "I think" response. Sadly, we are mostly lazy....nobody to do the real work, research.

I think it's the sport Industry because some sportsmen don't really work but they are paid unlike the entertainment industry which are paid based on what they do

Dudeweedlmao:



Enteratinment include hollywood, and we're talking about Marvel, Dc, Sony, Niqqa, those guys average billions of dollars in box office movies every year. YOu dey call millionaires lol


How much does each sport team worth? How many nollywood are there in the world? Epl only contribute close to 9billion pounds to UK economy. Man u is 4.17billion pounds according to Forbes. Spanish la liga, almost all country in the world spend on sport. How many spends on entertainment? Use Nigeria as case study. Only united stated and few developed country make it big in entertainment. But in sport. Even war torn Libya spend on sport.

This shouldn't even be an argument,a simple google search reveals each industries worth.
Sports Industry- ~$700billion
Entertainment Indystry- ~$2.2trillion

Here we are,four pages already,but with answers based on sentiments on how rich their favourite artists or sportsman is.It seems most people lack very basic critical thinking.
Isnt this country doomed embarassed

You mean Biggest?
How do you put the two together,
Funny !
Don’t you patronize entertainment ?
Everyone does, consciously or unconsciously,
Not even a choice, Entertainment is big.
You can put the movie industry which is under entertainment beside sports I guess.
Entertainment any day!

Only avengers endgame...neymar transfer alone is 222m...there is money in england football..Italian football...French football, Spanish football...etc...


Not all countries have avengers endgame money power...


And sports is not just football...there is basketball also...

If u add the fact that may weather made 250m dollars from one single fight...then u get the drift
