More on the end of the post-pandemic LBE surge

In our September Special Edition (www.whitehutchinson.com/ news/ lenews/ 2023/ september2/ article101.shtml) , we offered evidence that the post-pandemic LBE surge ended late last year. We now have evidence that theme parks have experienced a slowdown in attendance as well. The Walt Disney Company has even started discounting some tickets and dining plans at Disneyland and Disney World to overcome their attendance slump.

Disney is not the only theme park company facing these issues. Universal's (www.cnbc.com/ quotes/ CMCSA/ ) domestic parks and regional players like Six Flags (www.cnbc.com/ quotes/ SIX/ ) and SeaWorld (www.cnbc.com/ quotes/ SEAS/ ) , have also reported lower attendance this year.
