The unique locations of the Côte d’Azur

SHOOT ON THE CôTE D’AZUR

The locations of the Côte d’Azur and the filming permits

The Côte d’Azur and the cinema are inextricably linked. Indeed, from the very beginning of silent films and thanks to the presence of ambassadors of the film industry who fell under the charm of the Destination, all the arguments were gathered to make the couple “Côte d’Azur – Cinema” a real Love Story.

The Côte d’Azur has an idyllic setting, the mild winters, the beauty of the Mediterranean and its capes, its landscapes and its remarkable light will be the “seduction” assets that will lead the World Cinema greats to make the Côte d’Azur a place of work that will earn it the reputation of being considered the “European Hollywood”.

All scenarios are possible on the Côte d’Azur: beaches (fine sand or pebbles), ports, typical large towns, Provencal villages in the middle country, modern or traditional winter sports resorts, lunar plateaus , the canyons of red rocks, the markets …

In addition, a strong involvement of local public and private actors in the attractiveness of the territory and the hosting of filming will facilitate your work.
