To support filming in Western Montana, Glacier Country has created a film microsite with information about our communities.
The production of feature films, television series and commercials can generate significant economic activity for their host communities, drawing out-of-town spending, generating jobs and supporting local businesses.
The benefits to local communities from the film and entertainment industry are considerable. When a production shoots on location, it brings jobs, revenue and related infrastructure development, providing an immediate boost to the local economy. Film-induced tourism can affect travel decisions when potential tourists plan their upcoming holiday or visit to a destination. Films, documentaries, TV productions—like the ”Yellowstone” series—and commercials inspire people to experience locations seen in the content screened and explore new destinations.
