Analysis
NAICS 71119 is the 2022 NAICS industry for other performing arts companies, part of 7111 (Performing Arts Companies).
It has only one more detailed code, 711190, 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 101% and employment rose 8%. 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 468 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 7,158 people at an average annual payroll of $52,400 per employee (20th percentile of national industries). 75% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which marks it as a small-business industry.
By establishments it ranks 4th of the 4 codes at this level within Performing Arts Companies, with 4.5% of them.
