Manchester Fixer is here to help you when applying for filming permits in Manchester.
Northern Quarter Film Set Permit Application Locked Off Street
In the UK, we can accommodate shoots of just about every size imaginable. From small documentary crews to huge Hollywood productions, it’s all been done here. But what you might not know is one of the UK film industry’s best-kept secrets is the northern city of Manchester.
Manchester and its surrounding areas have some of the best locations, studios, facilities and crew in the world. The city centre is known for having stood in for New York in feature films such as ‘Captain America’ and upcoming Spiderman film ‘Morbius’. In January 2020, the cities of New York and Manchester even co-signed a tourism agreement based on this relationship. At Manchester Fixer, we’ve specialised for years in permitting locations in Manchester. As the film, television and commercials industries begin to emerge from their lockdown hiatus, shoots are beginning again – and there is no better time to be looking at Manchester for your production. You can write to us for the very latest on permitting locations in Manchester. Applying for permits might seem like an easy task if you know where you want to shoot, but at Manchester Fixer our relationships with permitting offices means that we know exactly who to speak to, what the deadlines are and where there is wiggle room for you and your production. Let Manchester-Fixer be your one-stop shop for all your service production needs for your next Production in Manchester and Liverpool; from handling applying for permits on your production, to crewing, facilities and whatever else is required.
