Where We Film in Paris

Filming in Paris

Our Paris-based video crew serves the entire Île-de-France region, from the business districts of La Défense to major trade shows at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. Because our team is local, we handle all Mission Cinéma permits and logistics for you, saving you the cost of flying in a crew. We also provide seamless coverage for multi-city projects, with teams ready in Lyon and Brussels.

Venues We Film At in Paris

We film at Paris's premier event venues, from the sprawling Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre to luxury 5-star hotels and intimate spaces near the Louvre. Our Paris crews specialize in international conferences, product launches, and gala events across the City of Light.

  • Palais de la Bourse

    The Palais Brongniart, the former Paris stock exchange, is run by GL events for the city and has two auditoriums of 99 and 594 seats.

  • Accor Arena

    Now called Accor Arena, this Bercy arena also offers 3,000 sq m of VIP hospitality space for corporate events.

  • Eiffel Tower Event Space

    Paris landmark operated by SETE, the Societe d'Exploitation de la Tour Eiffel.

Producer’s Note:

Navigating the dense traffic of the historic center and the strict security of La Défense high-rises requires our Parisian crews to utilize ultra-mobile, battery-powered cinema rigs. When covering massive trade shows at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, we deploy frequency-coordinated wireless microphones to cut through the immense RF interference.

Filming in Paris

What to know before you shoot in Paris

Filming permits and public-space rules

The key number in Paris is 10. The city's film office, Paris Film, says that crews of fewer than 10 people using light equipment, such as a shoulder-mounted camera, can file a prior declaration (déclaration préalable) for filming on the public highway, as long as they film only in streets or on bridges and do not park vehicles. It should be filed one week ahead, which the city counts as 5 working days. Anything else, whether a larger crew or a location such as a park, canal, market or school, goes through the AGATE application, which needs three weeks, or 15 working days, and usually involves occupation fees.

That is the city's side. The French foreign ministry's filming guidance says that filming in Paris needs two authorisations, one from the Mairie and one from the Préfecture de Police, and recommends contacting the police station for the neighbourhood. The same guidance lists some exemptions from prior authorisation for filming handheld or on a tripod on the public road, so ask Paris Film how these apply to your shoot. Any shoot also requires insurance, and the city asks crews to notify the area affected at least three days before filming. Older city pages describe the thresholds slightly differently, so confirm the current wording before you rely on it.

  • Many monuments and buildings fall under the city or the Ministry of Culture and need their own authorisation. The Centre des monuments nationaux is the contact where several sites are involved.
  • Traffic interruptions need an AGATE request at least two weeks ahead and should avoid 07:30 to 09:30 and 17:30 to 19:30.
  • Filming in bus lanes requires written agreement from RATP.

Drone rules

Paris should be treated as a no-drone city unless you have a formal exemption. The city's own page says drone filming is strictly prohibited in Paris without a derogation from the Préfecture de Police. Only professional companies authorised by the DGAC, the French civil aviation authority, can apply, and the request must go in at least 10 working days ahead.

A parallel request goes to Paris Film through AGATE at the same time. It needs the prior flight declaration for flying over a populated area (CERFA 15476.02), the DGAC declaration or special operations manual receipt, a plan showing take-off zone, flight zone, pilot position and safety perimeter, and written agreement from the managers of sites within that perimeter. Overflown areas must be closed to pedestrians and vehicles.

That last condition settles the question for most business events: an overhead shot of a venue forecourt would need the area closed. In practice, your exterior establishing shots are likely to be simpler from the ground or from a high point on private property with the owner's consent. Check with the Préfecture and Paris Film for current rules.

The business event calendar and districts

Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, on the southern edge of the city, is the main site for technology and trade events inside Paris. VivaTech returns there from 16 to 19 June 2027. Its organisers reported more than 200,000 visitors and over 4,500 exhibitors at the 2026 edition, which makes movement around the site and clean audio serious planning issues. Book interview slots and a quiet location early, and agree how footage of the show floor can be used. Tech Show Paris, aimed at IT decision-makers, ran at the same site on 18 and 19 November 2026.

Two other Viparis venues round out the map. Paris Nord Villepinte lies out towards Charles de Gaulle airport, on the RER B line. Le Palais des Congrès de Paris at Porte Maillot, on the west side, serves conference work and is reached by Line 1 and RER lines C and E. Check the Viparis calendar for your dates, as well as the organiser's rules for filming.

Practical logistics

The venues need different travel plans, and the wrong ticket can cost a crew time. Porte de Versailles is on metro Line 12 and tram lines T2 and T3a, with exit 1 at the metro serving Pavilions 2 to 7 and exit 2 serving Pavilion 1. Villepinte is reached on RER B to the Parc des Expositions station, and Viparis points out that an Île-de-France ticket covering zone 4 is needed, as a standard metro T+ ticket is not valid on this route. Viparis also runs a shuttle and escort service from its visitor car parks to the esplanade at Villepinte.

On the street, parking is tightly managed. The city's rules prohibit use of taxi, delivery, two-wheeler and coach bays except where a scene strictly requires it. Applications need a location plan and must go in 15 working days ahead through AGATE. Vehicles are limited to 35 cubic metres, small generators of under 10 kVA are banned from the public highway, and no vehicles at all are allowed on park paths managed by the city's green spaces department. The areas under most pressure are Paris Centre, the 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th and 10th arrondissements, and the Butte Montmartre in the 18th.

The practical result is that the prior declaration route only works if you arrive without parking, so a small crew should travel by public transport with kit they can carry. Take this into account if you have a heavy lighting setup, and consider keeping the larger kit for inside the venue, where the rules come from the venue and organiser. Allow extra time around embassies, ministries and schools, where the city notes that additional precautions apply.

Three tools your last videographer didn't have.

Most crews hand over a drive and a link. Every Fame Crew shoot runs on our own software, so you can see what is happening before the shoot, find any clip after it, and approve edits without a single email thread.

  1. 01

    Footage Log

    Every clip from the shoot, organised and labelled, with the whole log searchable - and every clip transcribed, so you can find the moment someone said the thing by typing what they said. No scrubbing through hours of rushes.

    Open a sample footage log →
  2. 02

    Shoot Status

    One page per shoot showing exactly where things stand: crew confirmed, brief signed off, kit list, call time, payment status. You never have to email to ask what is happening.

    See a live example →
  3. 03

    Asset Review Tool

    Review every edit in the browser and leave comments pinned to the exact second. No download, no version confusion, no thread of timecodes pasted into email.

All three come with every shoot. There is nothing to set up and nothing extra to pay.
