4 Fantastic Places To Visit if You Are a Film And TV Fanatic

Are you fascinated by TV and films? If so, then you might want to plan a trip based on seeing some of the most incredible filming locations. Here are some key examples worth considering and geeking out over!

Ireland 

First, you might want to think about taking a trip to Ireland. Ireland is often used as a filming location for fantasy epics and science fiction adventures.

There are parts of Ireland that truly look like they are from another planet or at the very least another point in time. Arguably one of the most popular TV shows of recent years that has used Ireland as a filming location is Game of Thrones. While Season 8, may have left a lot to be desired, the backgrounds are still undeniably beautiful and well worth exploring in person. 

Ohio 

You might also want to think about taking a trip to Ohio. This is chosen as a location for period pieces due to the unique architecture that still exists in Cincinnati today. It’s also commonly used as a shooting location for quaint indie movies including Seabiscuit and even Rain Man. If you are interested in visiting Ohio then you should definitely check out the architecture around Cincinnati. There are lots of other activities to explore here too including the perfect escape room rainy day activity. So, you definitely won’t be bored on your trip!

New York 

The city that never sleeps has been used for countless films over the years, partly due to the incredible opportunities that a location like Central Park and Time Square provides. Home Alone 2 was filmed in New York as were parts of The Avengers and various other big blockbusters that have come out over the last few years.

There are also plenty of TV shows that were shot around New York too. Gossip Girl and Sex and the City just to name two – and there are even full tours for both of those series you can take on your trip! 

London 

Finally, if you are interested in seeing some of the sites that have been used for more recent popular films and TV shows, then you definitely need to book a trip to London sooner rather than later. The latest Bond flicks have at least a few scenes that were filmed in locations around London and that’s just one example.

Several of the Fast & Furious movies were also shot around London although the action recently moved to Glasgow for Fast 9. So, why is London so popular as a filming location? Well, it’s an iconic location and has some eye-catching attractions that are known around the world!
