If you’re planning to shoot a film or TV production in Offaly then we offer a variety of supports and film-friendly resources to assist you. Feel free to contact us to find out more about how we can help you.
If you want to shoot in a public space, then you will need to apply for the necessary permits. Our position as part of Offaly County Council makes it easy to guide you through the application process.
If you’re filming on private property, it’s still a good idea to contact us and let us know about your plans- There may be other issues to consider, and we’d also love to hear more about your project.
We maintain a database of local crew- both above and below the line. Please contact us if you’re keen to source any support (including actors) to help you with your production.
If you’re a local screen professional, you can also apply to be part of our database.
Offaly boasts some great film-friendly businesses including Irelands’ biggest prop store. We also have great hotels and welcoming facilities who are keen to accommodate you and your crew.
International crews wishing to film in Ireland can benefit from our generous and competitive tax credits. The Section 481 credit is worth up to 32% of eligible Irish expenditure, and the Scéal uplift for small to medium productions can boost that to 40%.
