Filming locations across Oxford

Many of Oxford's colleges, departments and cultural institutions have been used as locations for film, television and photography, including productions such as Harry Potter, Inspector Morse, Saltburn and Wonka.

There is no single University-wide policy for filming and photography. Individual colleges, departments, libraries, museums and other venues set their own policies and manage enquiries independently. As a result, filming projects often require early discussion to understand specific requirements, permissions and venue availability.

If you are considering an Oxford University venue for filming or photography, please contact us for further discussion. We can help identify suitable locations, advise on the enquiry process and connect you with the relevant venue teams.
