The Top 10 Locations to Film Business Content in Medellín
"Do you know where I can record some amazing content?"
Hardly a week goes by where we aren't asked this question. Medellín is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, with the nickname "the city of eternal Springtime." But even though its picturesque views and lush landscape are something to be admired, actually filming in Medellín can be quite a headache.
Why Filming in Medellín Can Be a Headache
Filming in public spaces without a permit is becoming less of a possibility as time goes on. Renting a private space is often expensive and logistically complicated. And if you're a course creator, coach, or entrepreneur trying to record professional content that actually converts — the last thing you want is to be scrambling for a location on shoot day.
So after years of filming across the city, we've put together our definitive list of the best places to shoot business content in Medellín — from fully equipped professional studios to gorgeous outdoor spots you might not even know exist.
Top 10 Locations in Medellín for Recording Business Content
Estudio Helios Audiovisual Studio Medellín
1. Estudio Helios — El Poblado
Let's start with the obvious one. If you want to skip every headache on this list, this is your answer. Estudio Helios is a Netflix-approved 4K production studio in the heart of El Poblado, built specifically for entrepreneurs, coaches, course creators, and software businesses who need content that looks premium, not homemade. Multi-camera setups, professional lighting, broadcast-grade audio, and a team that knows how to make you look good on camera. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
2. Kiin Building — El Poblado
One of the most aesthetically striking coworking spaces in the city. The design is intentional, modern, and genuinely beautiful — the kind of backdrop that elevates any talking-head video without needing much art direction. The catch: you need to be a member or know someone who is. If you can get access, it's well worth it.
3. WeWork — Three Locations Across the City
WeWork has three locations in Medellín, but if you're coming here specifically to film, head to the Las Palmas location. The views are exceptional — the kind that make your b-roll look cinematic without any extra effort. The consistent, corporate-clean aesthetic also works well as a neutral backdrop for interviews and talking-head content.
4. Palma Pitón — Laureles
The rooftop here is genuinely exquisite. Lush greenery, great light, an atmosphere that reads as elevated without being sterile. It's the kind of location that gives your content a lifestyle quality — perfect for personal brand content, coaching videos, or anything where you want to communicate success without looking corporate. Book ahead and scout the light before your shoot day.
Digiannia - Fenix (Music Video)
5. Estación Ayurá — Envigado
A less obvious choice, but a great one for content creators who want something with character. The metro station has a series of striking overpasses and architectural structures that serve as genuinely interesting visual backgrounds. The industrial geometry gives content a dynamic, urban feel that stands out from the typical clean-desk aesthetic. Good option if you want something that looks a little different.
6. Parque Las Luces — Centro
This one is decidedly more local. Located in the heart of the city centre, Parque Las Luces is defined by its tall vertical light towers rising up from the open plaza. It has energy and a raw urban character — ideal for content that wants to feel authentic and grounded in Medellín rather than polished and generic. Open public space means no permits required, though come prepared for ambient noise.
7. Los Míos Cigar Bar — Provenza
One of the most atmospheric venues in El Poblado. Los Míos has a rich, intimate aesthetic — dark wood, warm lighting, and the kind of carefully considered interior design that does half the creative work for you. It's the sort of backdrop that instantly elevates personal brand content, giving it a sophisticated, high-status feel that's difficult to manufacture in a generic space. Best suited for entrepreneurs and business owners who want their content to feel refined and distinctive.
8. Ritwal — Provenza
An elegant, atmospheric restaurant with a thoughtfully designed interior. To film comprehensively inside, you'll need to book a private room — but it's worth it for the right project. Ritwal also has a small park behind the venue that's accessible without the reservation, making it a solid option for a quick outdoor setup with upscale surroundings. Great for lifestyle-adjacent content, brand videos, or anything that benefits from a refined, intimate feel.
9. Parque La Frontera — El Poblado
Just steps away from Estudio Helios, Parque La Frontera is one of the most consistently pleasant outdoor filming spots in the city. Well-maintained, green, and open to the public — it's the kind of place you can show up to with a camera and get clean, attractive footage without navigating permits or noisy crowds. A reliable go-to when you need a quick outdoor option that still looks polished.
10. Museo de Arte Moderno de Medellín (MAMM) — Ciudad del Río
One of the most architecturally distinctive venues in the city. The MAMM's clean geometric exterior, open plaza, and surrounding public spaces offer a backdrop that reads as cultured, modern, and unmistakably Medellín. The aesthetic suits brand content, thought leadership videos, and personal brand shoots where you want to project credibility and taste without the sterility of a standard office environment. The outdoor areas are accessible without a reservation, and the ever-changing public art installations mean no two shoots look exactly alike.
The bottom line
Medellín has no shortage of stunning backdrops — the challenge is knowing where to go, how to get access, and how to work around the city's less cooperative elements. Whether you're after a fully controlled studio environment or a wild outdoor shoot with the mountains in the background, this list covers the range.
