Over 70 separate film and video companies from both Spain and overseas used Marbella as a backdrop to shoot all or part of their productions throughout 2016.

The geography of Marbella and Puerto Banús offer a wide range of filming locations from beautiful beaches and glamorous marinas to Marbella’s historic old town and the surrounding traditional Andalucían white villages.

Positioned to assist production companies in finding suitable locations and obtaining the required permits to film commercials, music videos and feature films in the area is the Marbella Film Office. With many of the crews not coming from Spain, the office can also help overcome potential language barriers along with occasional bureaucracy which can crop up in Spain.

With stays in the city for each production crew averaging four to five days, Marbella’s position as a filming destination is not only a positive benefit to the local economy but also offers exceptional free publicity for the city.
