Entertaiment is a broad term used to describe the variety of activities that provide enjoyment and amusement. Although entertainment is often associated with fun and amusement, it can also have a serious purpose or be used as a way to achieve insight or intellectual growth. It is a flexible concept that can be adapted to any scale; from the personal pleasure of an individual choosing from a wide variety of pre-recorded entertainment products; through family entertainment at home or outings; through banquets or other celebrations for two to large groups; and up to performances intended for thousands or even for a global audience.
