Let (X, d) be a compact metric space, let f:X ↦ X be a continuous map with the specification property and let φ: X ↦ ℝ be a continuous function. We prove a variational principle for topological pressure (in the sense of Pesin and Pitskel) for non‐compact sets of the form {x∈X:limn→∞1n∑i−0n−1φ(fi(x))=α} Analogous results were previously known for topological entropy. As an application, we prove multifractal analysis results for the entropy spectrum of a suspension flow over a continuous map with specification and the dimension spectrum of certain non‐uniformly expanding interval maps.
