Conditions
To ensure your film or photography shoot works as effectively as possible, you
must book in advance.
We manage filming and photography actively to enable a production company or
photographer to achieve the images they need, while working within the constraints
of the building. In particular, security is paramount, as well as the needs of
our visitors. You can download a copy of our full statement of conditions for
filming and photography here.
Royal
Pavilion Filming & Photography Conditions [MS Word 114K]
Locations
The most popular locations are the Music Room, the Banqueting Room and the Great
Kitchen, but filming is possible in most other parts of the palace (including
some rooms which are not normally open to the public).
We always recommend you make a preliminary visit to identify likely locations
and to discuss the practicalities. To arrange a visit, contact royalpavilion@brighton-hove.gov.uk
Fees
Our standard facility fees - shown below - are charged by the hour (or part of an hour). Standard fees apply to a single photographer and to crews of up to eight people, with one camera. For larger crews, additional charges will apply.

Daytime (Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm) |

We will calculate special fees for the more complicated projects, for example
those that require more than one camera crew, shooting at night, or changes to
the usual displays.
All fees are subject to VAT.
Exteriors
The Royal Pavilion itself and the rest of the estate, with its Regency gardens
and the restored museum and Dome buildings, offer many attractive settings for
exteriors. You should seek permission to film or photograph exteriors beforehand
by contacting royalpavilion@brighton-hove.gov.uk
If your shoot needs to be supervised by the Royal Pavilion, or requires any
special access, we will charge a facility fee.
Please note that, because of a continuing programme of repairs to the exterior stonework, parts of the building are at present covered in scaffolding, which can limit some views.
News and current events
Royal Pavilion gardens provide an appropriate backdrop for certain news stories. We are able to host news crews in the gardens and are usually able to waive fees for an item requiring not more than 15 minutes access, with a crew of one or two people. Nevertheless, we need to know beforehand so that we can give security clearance - so please call us on 03000 290906, even it if is very short notice.
