Pre-pandemic I would publish a list each year of how many dance weekends, festivals, camps, and long dances contra bands and callers were doing: 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019. It's not much work, since I'm already collecting this data for trycontra.com/events, and it's interesting to see how the most-booked performers changed over time.

With covid I wasn't tracking things for a few years, but I do have 2023. Note that the number of events is down 20% from 2019 (132 to 107) and the number of bookings is down a 25% (243 to 179 callers, 242 to 175 bands), so these are somewhat fewer and somewhat smaller events:
