Filming Permits

Penrith is an extraordinary place to make a movie or create some unique still shots. It’s a developing, diverse and versatile region. It’s rural and city all in one location. Approval must be granted prior to filming commencing within the Penrith LGA.

Penrith City Council encourages filming and photography activity and welcomes artists interested in discovering our city's diverse locations. Council has implemented the Local Government Filming Protocol which is designed to cut through red tape and make approval processes easier, faster and more streamlined than ever before.
