Economic Development Lethbridge continues its promotion of region as film and television destination

You may not necessarily think of the Bridge City as a location for television and movie filming, but it’s on the radar of Economic Development Lethbridge.

And while probably more photos are taken of the High Level Bridge and the river coulee than any place else around town, Director for Creative Industry Brock Skretting concedes, there’s at least one other unique feature the city has.

“Our downtown core is really unique, in that it has nose-in parking, which sounds like a boring detail, but it’s a great detail for those that have picture car elements or are a period piece. It’s increasingly rare.”

Last year, EDL and the city launched Screen Lethbridge, a concerted effort to promote the region as a destination for film, television, video game development, E-sports, and interactive digital media.
