Not only Salzburg's beauty and history make it an ideal backdrop for many television and film productions. It is also home to leading film companies, and the special degree programs at its University of Applied Sciences and Technologies provide an educational base to round out the city's profile as a center of the film industry.

Filmlocation was established as part of SalzburgAgentur to strengthen this position and the film industry in Salzburg.

This service and consulting center serves as a "first-stop shop" offering bundled assistance and services from a single location, especially for commercial film and television productions with international distribution.
