Lights, Camera, Pittsburgh Movie Walking Tour
Take a walk with Walk the Burgh through the scenes of some of your favorite movies, shot right here in the Burgh! Pittsburgh is known as the city where the three rivers meet - but it also features the convergence of some of the biggest moments in film history, from the earliest days of the moviemaking industry to groundbreaking independent films and bona fide blockbusters. This history owes much to the city’s role as a hub of industry, its unique architecture and geography, and tax incentives that made location shooting in Pittsburgh an appealing prospect for Hollywood.
This tour will take you through the historic downtown where you'll learn about classic movie scenes shot in the area and uncover some hidden gems, too! This is your opportunity to walk in the footsteps of zombies and Batman. Come and discover Pittsburgh’s important role in the film industry’s past and present - and get inspired for future movie nights!
