In the Paris Region, about 310,000 people work in the sector of cultural activities and have therefore been potentially concerned by health restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Many cultural areas underwent a very heavy loss of activity during the strict lockdown in spring 2020, but some recovered better than others: the book sector almost completely returned, in early 2021, to its pre-crisis level. inversely, the loss of activity in 2020 was dramatic for the performing arts and music, and persists in early 2021.
