Calgary
Filming locations in Calgary
Calgary opens onto the wide-open Prairies and the Rockies.
A gateway to the Rockies, Calgary draws productions after big skies, ranches, and open landscapes, but also a modern city and believable residential neighbourhoods. The region has been a backdrop for major international series.
List my propertyBetween the character homes of Inglewood and Bridgeland, the shops of Kensington, and the vast lots nearby, Calgary combines a contemporary urban core with direct access to countryside and mountains. A single project can shoot both in the city and in open nature.
Why productions shoot in Calgary
Alberta’s incentive and the iconic landscapes of the West have drawn high-profile productions to Calgary. Demand covers urban settings as much as lots and properties on the outskirts, which opens the market to a wide range of owners.

What types of shoots take place in Calgary?
Feature films, television series, commercials, music videos, and photo shoots all request locations in Calgary. Most residential shoots last one to five days, and each request specifies the project, its duration, and the crew size so you can choose freely.
How much can I earn renting my place in Calgary?
A residence typically earns $500 to $2,000 per shoot day, a commercial space $1,500 to $5,000, and an exceptional venue $8,000 and up. The amount depends on the space, the production, and the duration.
Do I have to be present during the shoot?
That is your choice. Some owners stay on site the whole time, others simply hand over access for the day. Every booking is covered by a signed contract and insurance, and you set the house rules before anyone arrives.
Is my home insured during a shoot?
Yes. Every booking made through Locloc is covered by insurance, and a contract is signed before the shoot. You keep full control over what is allowed and can decline any request.
