TV Key Facts / Video Marketplace / Media Offer Get an insight into the consumer mindset for Christmas 2021 with our new European study The results of the study on European attitudes towards Christmas is out. The survey, which was made in collaboration with Sociovision, revealed a lot of insights on how consumers are approaching this Christmas period and what are their inspirations and expectations. The Study was carried out across 4 markets (UK, France, Germany and Italy) among 1,000 adults aged 18 – 65 in each country between June 29th and July 16th 2021.Once again, it is fascinating to see how diverse trends, expectations and consumption habits vary across markets. One of the takeaways was how some Britons plan to ramp up Christmas 2021 celebrations to make up for Covid lockdowns and the partial “cancellation” of last year’s festivities, in what the study calls “revenge spending”.The British also emerged as the keenest fans of Christmas among Europeans, with 76% of Britons agreeing that Christmas 2021 “will be wonderful” compared to 67% of Italians and only 51% of Germans. The survey highlights several new trends and consumption habits such as the rise of second-hand presents for Christmas 2021 with 22% of French people saying they would prefer something second-hand while 45% saying they would prefer something new. It also gives a better understanding of what helps the consumers get into the Christmas mood as well as where they get Christmas presents ideas, and how they plan to shop. For example, big brands appear as a safe choice, especially in France and Italy. Indeed, 57 % of Italians and 52% of French people would rather gift products from big brands. And when it comes to the places where Europeans shop, we see that Internet has become a strong purchase channel, most notably in Germany. 52% of people buy presents online, 16% in shops and 43% in both.
