About the Atlantic City Film Commission

Atlantic City is a “Film-Friendly Community,” that can accommodate a smooth and enjoyable filmmaking process. Our four miles of white sandy beaches and the Atlantic Ocean offer a variety of amazing looks – from our historic Steel Pier, America’s first boardwalk and nine casino resorts to the back bays and marshes with all their flora and fauna. We allow cars and trucks on the beach and Boardwalk for driving shots, have ample free parking, and we’re the perfect spot to film a surf scene.

A Few Filming Locations in Atlantic City

Atlantic City Boardwalk

The five-mile-long promenade along the Atlantic Ocean was the first of its kind and remains the most famous boardwalk on the East Coast, and it has developed into a major tourist hub. Whether your project’s setting is based in today’s era or one of the distant past, the classic boardwalk feel will give you stunning ocean views and charming storefront shots.

The Steel Pier has been a location for entertainment and amusement for generations. Originally built in 1898 and remodeled in 1904, the pier quickly became an exciting location for vacations. The carnival feel of the pier is the perfect location to capture summer activity and energy. The opportunity to incorporate the miles of beach and boardwalk all while sticking to one location is possible at the Steel Pier.

Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall

Formerly known as the Historic Atlantic City Convention Hall, the Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall has been the host of countless events throughout the 1900s. The beautiful arches and stonework give a unique and grandeur impression that will only continue when you step into the giant hall.
