Mallorca on Screen

Filming permits are required for all commercial productions on public land. The Mallorca Film Commission processes applications within 5-15 business days. Permits cover road closures, drone usage, pyrotechnics, and large crew access. We handle the entire permit process, including municipal coordination, police liaison, and environmental compliance for protected areas like the Tramuntana.

Our location scouts have catalogued over 500 filming locations across Mallorca — from medieval old town streets and modernist mansions to rugged coastal cliffs and pristine beaches. We provide location packs with photos, GPS coordinates, access details, and permit requirements. Scouting trips can be arranged within 48 hours of inquiry.

We maintain a database of 200+ local crew members including camera operators, gaffers, grips, art directors, makeup artists, and production assistants. Mallorca's established film industry means experienced crew are available year-round. We also coordinate with mainland Spanish and international crew for specialist roles.

Mallorca has professional studios, equipment rental houses, and post-production facilities. Sound stages are available in the Palma industrial area. Equipment includes RED and ARRI camera packages, lighting rigs, grip trucks, and drone units. We also arrange mobile production offices, catering trucks, and talent accommodation.

Spain offers a 30% tax rebate on qualifying production expenditure in the Balearic Islands (increased from the standard 20% for mainland Spain). International productions can benefit from the Spain-EU co-production treaties. We connect productions with local tax advisors who specialise in audiovisual incentives to maximise financial benefits.

Mallorca enjoys 300+ days of sunshine annually with reliable weather patterns. Summer (June-September) guarantees consistent sun with 14+ hours of daylight. Spring and autumn offer softer light ideal for cinematography. Winter is mild (10-15°C) with occasional rain. We provide detailed weather analysis for production scheduling and maintain contingency plans.
