Who doesn’t love a good – or, better yet, great – movie? Greater Miami & Miami Beach is a fabulous place to watch a movie in a megaplex or indie film house, attend a world-class film festival or discover the perfect location to shoot a movie.

Movie aficionados will be curious to know which movies and TV shows have been shot in Miami over the years. Check out the interactive Miami Movie & TV Map Tour to take a journey through Miami’s epic film and TV history, dating back to 1919. Or read about famous films with Miami locations.

Movie buffs have their choice of venues for watching short films, foreign flicks and classic movies. Miami’s movie theaters range from megaplexes (some with premium theater-going experiences) to independent cinemas (including Art Deco gems) and the outdoor New World Symphony Soundscape Park.
