Durham Region plays an important role in Ontario's multi-billion-dollar film, television and digital media industry due to its proximity to Toronto's production studios, film industry workforce, supporting businesses and blend of urban and rural film locations.
Momentum continues to build for film production and related activities in Durham Region as there is growing interest in the region's unique sites and businesses to service the film industry. Demand for studio space is high in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA) and key filming locations like TriBro Studios, Parkwood National Historic Site, and the William F White 90 acre backlot enhance the attractiveness of Durham Region as a film location.
The region's film industry is assisted by Ontario Creates and offers many resources for the province’s creative media industries, including an experienced team, online digital location library, tax credits and funding information.
Productions must plan for health and safety considerations at each location, and follow the Ontario Section 21 Health and Safety Committee COVID-19 Guidance Document.
