Filming in Dublin City

We aim to increase the number of productions shooting in Dublin, by supporting the audio-visual industries in the Dublin Region and acting as a coordinator between production companies and various government departments, in order to provide a seamless transition of your script to on-location filming.

Dublin City Council manages the city’s public domain and handles permits for over 4,000 on-street locations, many bridges, beaches and parks, as well as various interior civic properties.

We can advise you on a range of City Council services such as parking, road closures, traffic control, street furniture, waste management, Health and safety requirements, environmental and local issues surrounding your location; as well as other general film-related queries, such as public transportation and whether your production will be affected by utility works or other events in the city.
