The aim of this study was to measure whether the pandemic shifted alcohol consumption in different gender, age and income groups in Australia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design, setting and participants<\/jats:title><jats:p>This was a longitudinal study using four waves (2017\u201320) of the annual Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey to compare pre\u2010pandemic consumption (2017\u201319) with consumption in 2020.

We found a significant difference in consumption change from pre\u2010COVID\u201019 to during COVID\u201019 for participants aged under 55\u2009years compared with those aged over 55\u2009years. In addition, participants aged 15\u201334 reported less alcohol consumption during the pandemic than those aged 35\u2009years and older.
