Filming in Salamanca is not just about architectural beauty — it’s about efficiency, accessibility, and professional support. With over 700 productions facilitated and 15 years of experience, Salamanca Film Commission stands as one of the most active and reliable film offices in Castilla y León.
In October 2025, they will once again participate in Shooting Locations Marketplace, an event they’ve attended since its early editions, reaffirming their position within the international audiovisual industry.
Streamlined procedures and tailored assistance
One of Salamanca’s main strengths as a filming destination is the speed and simplicity of its administrative processes. The Film Commission operates as a one-stop shop for production needs — from filming permits to access to public spaces and municipal services — all provided free of charge and within 24 hours.
Backed by strong institutional support, the city offers free services such as lighting, cleaning, traffic management, and police assistance. Productions can also use a fully equipped production office for up to 15 days at no cost. Close collaboration with the hospitality sector ensures discounts on accommodation and dining, while local professionals and technicians are available to support crews on the ground.
An open-air set with endless possibilities
From medieval alleyways to contemporary urban spaces and untouched rural settings, Salamanca’s territory offers a diverse and ever-expanding catalogue of locations. The local archive includes over 500 potential sites, and the city has hosted a wide range of productions — from Alejandro Amenábar’s While at War to Terminator: Dark Fate, alongside documentaries, indie films, and TV dramas.
Its architectural richness and cinematic potential make Salamanca a natural set capable of recreating any period or atmosphere. And behind each project, the Film Commission provides hands-on guidance to ensure that every shoot runs smoothly and successfully.
Confirmed for Shooting Locations Marketplace 2025
Salamanca Film Commission will take part in Shooting Locations Marketplace 2025, taking place on 15–16 October in Valladolid. Their presence reinforces Salamanca’s reputation as an efficient, flexible and visually unique destination for film, TV and advertising productions. With fast-track permitting, institutional support, and a one-of-a-kind catalogue of locations, Salamanca remains a top-tier partner for audiovisual professionals seeking seamless production experiences.
