Seville is a unique setting for your filming

The climate of our city is markedly Mediterranean. With more than 310 days of sunshine a year and mild temperatures, Seville is an incomparable advantage when it comes to locating an audiovisual production in the city.

As an international tourist destination, Seville has an unbeatable range of hotels, restaurants and complementary services in one of the Spanish cities with the best security indexes.

On the other hand, as the capital of Andalusia, it is one of the cities with the best infrastructure in our country. It has an international airport and high-speed train connection with Madrid (2 hours and 30 minutes) and the rest of the national capitals, the metro and the streetcar. In addition, it is accessible in an hour by road to the coast.

Seville fascinates. Sevilla is known worldwide and at the same time, is a city of cities to discover.

It is not only about its historical value and an enormous and incomparable cultural heritage. For years, the city has been able to transform itself and perfectly combine all the values of tradition with important doses of freshness and innovation.

Our city is an exciting European capital where open, pedestrianized spaces, design establishments, contemporary architecture and more than 30 centuries of history combine.

Thanks to this, our city is a stage of stages. Sevilla offers to those who come to it. World heritage monuments, the largest pedestrian historic centre in Europe that combines Baroque, Gothic and Mudejar with examples of modern architecture admired internationally.

Seville, also historic neighbourhoods, industrial environment, urban environments, the drawing of a great river, the Guadalquivir, which imprints personality in multiple approaches…

Since 1896, when a team of the Lumière brothers filmed images of Holy Week, Seville has been an audiovisual set.

Memorable are the walks of Lawrence of Arabia or a young Darth Vader through the Plaza de España, the beautiful kingdom of Dorne from Game of Thrones in Real Alcázar, the love affairs of the cigarette maker Carmen at the University, the motorcycle chases of Tom Cruise or the dizzying races across the rooftops of the Artillery Factory of Group 7…

An endless list of productions that have found here their Arab kingdom, their medieval city, their chase between office buildings, the story of a neighbourhood character, the cold and modern scene of a crime, their dreame garden…

In short, to say that there are as many Seville as you can imagine is not a cliché.

Seville is the ideal place to organize your event

Seville is a world reference for tourism. Whoever visits it falls in love with it. And not only for its traditions and history but also for its new thrust, for its freshness and modernity. Seville is a hospitable city, ready to welcome anyone who comes to it. It has one of the largest and most diverse hotel parks in Spain and a solid offer of complementary services and restaurants. A city in which there is sunshine for more than 300 days a year and enjoys mild temperatures in all seasons. Sevilla is a real gift for visitors. Seville is home to world heritage monuments and buildings ranging from Gothic to Mudejar, but we also have examples of avant-garde architecture, open spaces, large pedestrian areas and green spaces, exotic gardens, historic neighbourhoods full of flavor, theatres, auditoriums and halls and an infinite variety of venues, which can make the difference in organizing an event.

Infrastructure is another of our city’s strong points. The international airport of Seville, the high-speed train, and the network of highways connect Seville in an unbeatable way. In addition, it is only an hour’s drive from the coast, and within the city, we have means of transport such as the metro or streetcar, which make any space more accessible.

Seville also has one of the most vibrant cultural and leisure agendas in Spain, and its inhabitants live each event with intensity and dedication.

An enormous number of cultural events of all kinds have taken place in our city. From the celebration of the 1992 Universal Exposition to the recent Goya Awards or the MTV EMAs.

A background that also allows us, as a city, to have an excellent and extensive infrastructure of companies organizing events and complimentary services.

Our city is an international benchmark in the MICE segment in private spaces: hotels, restaurants and palaces and also in the organization of events in public spaces. And it is in this area that Sevilla&ME intervenes as a public service.

Through our one-stop shop, we offer all the necessary information on municipal regulations and support in the processing of the relevant permits for holding a professional event in municipal spaces and buildings.
