Looking for a film permit?
Requests for permits to film anything other than breaking news must first be emailed to the park. Special use permit applications for other park uses may be found here as well.
Not media, but you'd like to visit?
Our Plan Your Visit section provides information, links and tips about what you need to know to visit the park. Get tickets for the ferry from Statue Cruises, which also sells limited tickets to the monument (pedestal) and the crown. Visiting the crown requires obtaining limited tickets well in advance, plus the ability to climb 377 steps.
Free photos, "b-roll" of Liberty Island and the inside of the Statue
Statue of Liberty National Monument offers still photographs and moving images of the park and the Statue for use by media organizations and individuals. All photos and movie clips are taken by park staff and volunteers and are not covered by copyright; they may be used by anyone, free of charge. We ask that you credit National Park Service (or, for international media, U.S. National Park Service) when you use them. Files include the interior of the Statue, high resolution images of the Statue and photos of the park before and after Hurricane Sandy, including the park's recovery.
