| From early films such as Irish Destiny (1926) and The Dawn (1936), through to today’s successful films and television programmes, Ireland has always proven as fertile a location for artists as its green fields would suggest.
Ireland has continued to be a desirable film location for both Irish and international filmmakers and artists due to its unique combination of scenic views, pristine coastlines, mixed with historical and contemporary film locations and a resource of world-class professionals and talent.
The IFTN Locations Guide is a resource for information on locations, services and infrastructure. It provides comprehensive information across the 32 counties on locations (costal, rural, urban, historic, interior), services (utilities, travel, accommodation etc.), and the many films and television programmes that have been shot here in the past.
