About Us

Welcome to Scene on Gozo, the ultimate guide to discovering the magic of films and TV shows shot on this beautiful island! As a local who’s passionate about both Gozo and cinema, I created this site to fill a gap – as there wasn’t a dedicated resource to help film fans explore where their favourite scenes were filmed.

Gozo has been the backdrop for some incredible productions, from iconic blockbusters to beloved TV shows. Some of which are well known, like Game of Thrones, The Madame Blanc Mysteries, or Clash of the Titans, but there are so many others that you might not have realised were filmed here, such as The Da Vinci Code, Brideshead Revisited and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

I've discovered so many surprises already as I've researched Gozo's cinematic history. For example, Joan Collins was moved to divorce her then-husband, Antony Newley, after the experience of filming his semi-autobiographical musical, Can Heironymus Merkin Ever Forget Mercy Humppe and Find True Happiness? on the island. With Gozo seeming to attract even more film crews in recent years, I'm sure there's a lot more fascinating facts to come!

I also wanted to make it easier for fellow film lovers to find these locations and make the most of their visit, by giving practical guides on how to get to Gozo, the best way to travel around, where to stay and lots, lots more. It's going to take a while to build all those guides up, but if you have a question or want me to write about something in particular, please just get in touch!

So please join the journey with me. Whether you’re a film buff, a curious traveller, or both, I hope this site helps you discover something new about this gorgeous place and the productions that have chosen to film here.
