Filming Permits

The city of Bristol operates a permit system for all location filming and photography. Applications for a permit should be submitted to the Bristol Film Office as soon as possible by fax using the Filming Permit Application Form.

You should also read the Film Maker's Code of Practice, a useful guide to working in Bristol.

We also have a specifc Clifton Code of Conduct to accompany our general Film Maker's Code of Practice. Both documents should be adhered to when filming in the district of Clifton.
