Spain hosts North American producers for filming locations and historic archives

November 12, 2026

Eight production companies from the US and Canada, including CBS Studios, Legendary Entertainment and History Channel/A+E, are visiting Spain from 10 to 13 November to explore opportunities for filming, co-production and investment.

Organised by ICEX, Spain’s trade and investment agency, through its Shooting in Spain programme, *Global Stories Hidden in Spain* is part of efforts to attract international film and television productions to the country.

The programme takes North American producers to Madrid, Seville and Cádiz, with location visits and meetings involving around 30 Spanish audiovisual industry representatives.

In Seville, the delegation will visit the General Archive of the Indies, whose historical collections offer potential inspiration for new screen stories. The programme also includes attendance at the Seville European Film Festival and an industry session examining international storytelling and production opportunities.

The initiative is funded through Spain Audiovisual Hub, with the involvement of regional film commissions.
