Welcome to the City of Alexandria’s Film Office

On the Potomac River within eyesight of Washington, D.C., Alexandria, VA is nationally recognized for its rich history and beautifully preserved 18th- and 19th-century architecture. A top small city recognized in Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards and Southern Living, Alexandria hums with a cosmopolitan feel and a walkable lifestyle—a welcoming weekend escape next to our nation’s capital. A nationally designated historic district founded in 1749, Old Town Alexandria is home to more than 200 independent restaurants and boutiques alongside intimate historic museums and new happenings at the waterfront. Take a self-guided stroll along Alexandria’s King Street Mile to discover surprising connections to star-studded and beloved movies and TV shows.
