Filming in Malta<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

In recent years, Malta has become one of Europe’s most popular film and television locations – dubbed “the Mediterranean’s mini-Hollywood” by the London Times. <\/p>\n

\"Munich\"The Maltese Islands – Malta, Gozo and Comino – have been home to Hollywood blockbusters such as Gladiator<\/strong>, U-571<\/strong>, The Count of Monte Cristo<\/strong>, Troy<\/strong>, Munich<\/strong> as well as prestigious dramas and sitcoms such as the BBC’s Byron<\/strong> and ITV’s Coronation Street<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The islands’ beautiful, unspoiled coastlines and breathtaking architecture have ‘doubled’ for an amazing variety of locations on the big and small screens – from ancient Rome to 19th-century Marseille and 1960’s Beirut. Steven Spielberg<\/strong>, Ridley Scott<\/strong>, Wolfgang Petersen<\/strong>, Guy Ritchie<\/strong> and other renowned directors, as well as a host of A-list celebrities such as Russell Crowe<\/strong>, Brad Pitt<\/strong>, Sharon Stone<\/strong>, Madonna<\/strong> and Sean Connery<\/strong>, all experienced Malta’s movie making facilities and its many charms.<\/p>\n

The Malta Film Commission<\/strong> is a government body set up with the aim of assisting in the production of films in Malta and promoting the islands as a filming location. The MFC offers specific financial<\/strong> incentives<\/strong><\/a> in the form of cash rebates to audiovisual productions shooting on location in Malta. For more information contact the MFC<\/strong><\/a> directly.<\/p>\n

In addition, the Malta Tourism Authority<\/strong> also offers financial and logistical support to film and television productions who chose to film locally depicting ‘Malta as Malta’. For details click here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
