Depends. I've been to more concerts, sporting events, motor racing, festivals, museums, art galleries, comedy shows, wildlife parks/events etc. since I've been here, compared to the UK.
What is "culture"? I didn't go to castles, or the theatre or ballet when I lived in the UK for 20 years. So I don't go here either.
They do the imported thing pretty well these days, given the distance (and especially considering how far the Aussie dollar goes today). Sporting and wildlife activities have always been very good. But I was reflecting more on the fact that from my experience people tended to focus on enriching the contents of their stomachs more than anything else, which surprised me.
