Parks Permit Application

All requests for filming and/or photography in city-owned parks can be submitted online, using the following form. Once the request has been approved by both the City of San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department and the San Antonio Film Commission, the individual or company requesting the permit must pay the full amount for the permit via check, to the following address:

San Antonio Film Commission
203 South St. Mary's Street, 2nd Floor
San Antonio, Texas 78205

The check, made payable to "The City of San Antonio," may be delivered in person, or mailed. Upon receipt of the payment, a permit will be released (it can also be faxed or mailed). Large commercials, television shows, features and any production involving cables, lighting, etc. are required to submit a certificate of insurance to the above address, with "The City of San Antonio" named as an additional insured.

A frequently asked questions page is available to help answer questions regarding this form.

Note: A separate form submission is required for each park for which a film permit is required.
