Analysis
NAICS 71113 is the 2022 NAICS industry for musical groups and artists, part of 7111 (Performing Arts Companies).
It has only one more detailed code, 711130, which covers exactly the same activities; the definition, index entries and statistics are on that page.
Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments grew 15% and employment rose 6%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.
County Business Patterns counts 5,681 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 40,175 people at an average annual payroll of $58,750 per employee (31st percentile of national industries). 79% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
By establishments it ranks 1st of the 4 codes at this level within Performing Arts Companies, with 54% of them.
