Filming requests

We're delighted that you are considering the Vale of Glamorgan for your filming requirements.

All enquiries are asked to submit a Filming Enquiry or Request by following the link at the bottom of the page.

Once you have submitted your Enquiry Form you will be contacted by our team who will co-ordinate your enquiry across all departments within the Vale of Glamorgan Council. 

Take a look at our Filming Checklist to see what will be required to approve all requests.

Once the filming is agreed by both parties, a Vale of Glamorgan Filming Licence will be produced for you to sign and return. This document will outline the basis on which the filming is permitted. This document must be signed and returned prior to the commencement of filming.

Fees vary according to the Council property used as a location and any extra facilities required. There is also a fee for the preparation of a filming licence. Fees are charged at a daily, half daily or hourly rate on a case by case basis. Please contact us to discuss the fees relevant to your enquiry.

If your proposal includes filming with a drone, please refer to our Filming with a drone page.

We have a great variety of places to stay in the Vale should you need accommodation during your production. Take a look at our Places to Stay section, or let us advise what might be suitable.  

Of course there are many more attractions and places to visit that might be suitable for your filming that are are privately managed. Take a look through Visit the Vale for some inspiration, and we'd be happy to put you in contact with venues directly.

Where time allows, payment is required before filming commences, otherwise we will invoice on completion.

For information, please see our Licence, Terms & Conditions.

Please note: Fees are not charged for news reports and interviews or to students making films as part of their academic studies. Please complete the Filming Request below.
