Netflix and other streaming services are thriving, but the COVID-19 outbreak has impacted a variety of other industry players with fierce financial consequences.

With many people suffering economically and health wise from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the repercussions for the entertainment industry may seem like small dice in comparison. But the ripple effects have any number of implications for people around the world who make their living producing and distributing movies, music, and more.

Major movie releases have been delayed, major tourist attractions closed, and the production of big box office, TV, and made-for-streaming releases put on ice as uncertainty over the pandemic continues.

The financial consequences will likely be felt by studios, filmmakers, theater owners, and many other players in the industry for months or even years to come.

Here is a breakdown of some of the biggest disruptions to the entertainment industry to date:

Major cancellations and postponements of festivals and live events

On March 6, the city of Austin, Texas, declared a state of disaster, requiring the cancellation of public gatherings and events for the near future. The most notable was the cancellation of South by Southwest, the annual music, film, TV, and technology festival that serves as a significant financial boon for the city.
The 2020 edition of the Cannes Film Festival, arguably the most prestigious film festival in the world, is still in question following an announcementon March 19 that the gathering could be delayed until “late June or early July,” or another time. (The festival had been slated to take place May 12 to 23 and draws thousands of industries and press from around the globe each year.)
Goldenvoice, the organizers of Coachella, one of the largest annual music festivals in the U.S., announced March 10 that the festival would be postponed.
Theater industry leaders announced that Broadway shows would remain closed through at least June and probably longer.
