Entertaiment is a broad cultural category, and it includes many kinds of activities that keep people engaged, amused, and diverted. The word is often associated with fun and laughter, but it can also have a serious purpose, as in ceremony, religious festival, or satire. It has evolved into a major industry, and it is used in a variety of settings, from a single individual choosing a product from the huge array available to them through digital media to a banquet for two; from performances intended for thousands to those for a global audience.
