Special Events & Weddings - Oceano Dunes District

Thank you for considering California State Parks for your filming location. Filming on California State Parks land requires a film/photography permit. We recommend contacting the park in advance to understand the requirements for your chosen location. The filming coordinator can also assist you in finding the best location for your film/photography shoot. To obtain a permit, please contact the Special Events/Film Coordinator for your location listed below and submit an application to the California Film Commission. There is no cost associated with submitting an application to the California Film Commission. However, applications must be received at least one week in advance of your film/photography shoot date.

SITE MONITORS

Some film/photography shoots require a monitor depending on activities, equipment, and location. Please provide as much advance notice as possible to ensure that the Film Coordinator can find appropriate site monitors for your shoot.

DRONES

Drone guidelines are defined on the California Film Commission website. At this time, State Parks is reviewing requests for filming with a drone on a case-by-case basis.

Pismo State Beach offers an iconic, diverse shoreline, featuring white sand and dune formations for the perfect Special Event. Adjacent to the park, the City of Grover Beach and Oceano, CA offers a wide range of restaurants, breweries, and entertainment while still maintaining a small town feel. As the focal point of this quaint coastal community, the park provides excellent recreation options (swimming, off highway vehicular recreation, surf fishing, dune exploring and vehicular access) and continues to represent the natural resources. This length of coastline offers both coastal dunes and natural bluff formations. The park also has plentiful parking and various natural and scenic backdrop.
