Sydney Living Museums offers endless opportunities for filming and photography with a variety of metropolitan and rural properties across Sydney. We provide a supportive, film-friendly environment for television, commercials, documentaries, film and photographic shoots.

Our 11 heritage properties are architecturally significant and range from magnificent colonial style to iconic modern design, sandstone mansions to prison cells. The interiors have been beautifully preserved, or restored to highlight the original features. Outdoor settings include picturesque manicured gardens, a grand carriage loop, and undulating paddocks dotted with vintage farm machinery.

Your creative vision has no limits at Sydney Living Museums.
