Film Shoots

Film Production In Session
Thank you for your interest in filming in Madison Square Park.

Madison Square Park offers an ideal setting for film shoots that combines lush lawns and gardens with an iconic city backdrop. One of the nation’s oldest public spaces, Madison Square Park is maintained through a public/private partnership between New York City Parks & Recreation and Madison Square Park Conservancy.

We’d love to work with you on making your production a success for you and for our park visitors.  When available, our team can support production crews with:

  • Parking, permitting, craft service coordination, indoor dressing room (fees apply).

Shoots that are completely handheld (with the exception of a tripod for a camera) and do not claim exclusive use of an area not required to obtain a Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment permit.

Due to the Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment permit application processing times, we will need 4 – 5 business days to process your request.  

*Any individual or crew appearing on-site without required paperwork will be asked to cease production immediately.

Questions about a specific request? Not sure if you need a permit? We’re here to help. Contact production@madisonsquarepark.org or click the button below to get started.
