Film Permits

Film permits are issued for those who wish to make still or video photography on public land.  Film permits are not required for news media.  Because different rules and restrictions apply to Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area compared to the rest of the Field Offices jurisdiction, different permits are available.  All film permits must be turned in one week in advance of scheduled filming.  To download a film permit for Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, please click here.  If you would like to download a film permit for other areas in the Las Vegas Field Office, please click here.  If you have questions about film permits, please call Dorothy Jean Dickey at (702) 515-5119.
