Filming and photography in Westminster

We welcome filming and photography applications and our team is on hand to help you plan a safe and successful shoot.

What happens next?

  • we will check your preferred date and location 
  • if your application is accepted, you will receive an email with a reference number and details of how to pay (see below) - while this means you can start planning your event, it does not guarantee or constitute approval that it will go ahead
  • once you have paid, a member of the team will contact you to discuss your application and let you know of any requirements or conditions
  • if your application fee is not paid after five working days from making your application, your application will be removed from the system
  • we will let you know the permits and licences you need and help you apply for them. Please do not apply for them independently
  • if we approve your event or film shoot, you will be issued with a letter of no objection including conditions specific to your activity. This is not a contract with the council but gives you permission to carry out the activities that have been agreed
