We’ve known for a while that Glee would be filming the Nationals in New York City (they normally shoot in Los Angeles). We also knew that filming would be taking place next week, and now it looks like we may have their first filming location too!
Signs have been spotted around 47th and 6th/Broadway as well as 51st and 8th/9th Ave for an “Untitled 20th Century Fox TV Project” for Monday, April 25. The signs match recent casting calls for stand-ins for 4/25 through 4/29 that were also posted for an “Untitled 20th Century Fox Project” and all of the descriptions for those stand-ins match the descriptions of the main cast of Glee!
Based on the signs it looks like they may be filming around Rockefeller Center or Times Square.
Originally we had heard they would only be filming at rLincoln Cente, which is what Page Six has also reported, but last week we got a tip that there may have been a change and that they would be filming at various location throughout the city. So stay tuned for more filming locations and be on the lookout for those “Untitled 20th Century Fox Project” No Parking signs!
Update: Signs for Monday posted on 48th & 6th near the little plaza outside Fox News for Monday too. (Thanks @_whatshername)
Update #2: Signs posted at 61st-62nd between Broadway and Columbus for Tuesday too. (Thanks @JackieGoldstein)

Where are the listings to become an extra? I havent heard anything about it yet and I usually get all the extra news
I would love to be an extra! How can I go about becoming one?
Tweet @dmwaldron he’s handling casting for Central, he said to refer people to him, though I’m assuming you’ll need to be registered with CC first
You know if you have to be allowed to work in the US to be an extra, if it’s just volunteering? *Couse I would love to, but I have a student visa
Yes, you must be legally eligible to work in the US. These are paid jobs, not volunteering.
You also need to already be registered with Central Casting to submit for any extra work with them.
Christine, David Waldron sent out a tweet today that he can’t cast off Twitter. I think people misunderstood about tweeting him regarding casting for Glee.
He told everyone that’s interested to go to http://www.centralcasting.org to find out how to register. He said you MUST already be registered with Central Casting if interested in being cast for Glee or any of his projects, as I’ve said before.
I by no means meant people could register off of Twitter, sorry if it came off that way, I have been bombarded with so many requests for how to be an extra I asked him what to do and he said to have people contact him, that’s all I was doing, was referring folks to him….
Oh, I know that’s what you were doing, I just think some people didn’t understand what you intended and were bombarding him too.
He just posted a bunch of casting calls for Monday saying they will be shooting exteriors, rain or shine.
annie where do you see that tweet?
The casting calls are NOT on Twitter. He does not tweet those.
omg i need to go!!!! wait how old do you have to be to be casted??
you need to be 18.
🙁 so upset!! im 16 just missed it by 2 years!!!:( ilive in NY so do you think if i went to that area I would be able to see them??
The casting place has registration on Tuesday. If we do it, do you think we’d still have a chance of getting on for the rest of the days?
Probably not, they take 5-10 days to enter you into their system for casting calls. This was when I registered a couple weeks ago.
More Glee 4 Mon: RT @modernxlove @olv passed 46th btwn 6th & 7th saw trucks & security setting up 4 untitled fox 20th century project
Lea Michele tweeted that she arrived in NYC today.
Jenna Ushkowitz also tweeted that she’s on her way here!
anyone know if they’ll still be filming in the city this coming weekend? like the weekend of the 30th?
The casting calls are only through Friday, so I doubt they’ll shoot on the weekend, but can’t say for sure.
Thank you for your update. Can’t wait to hear more! XOXO
Does anybody knows around what time they will be shooting?
More signs:
via @LaDolceViva :
@olv monday 6am will be filming on 50th street, 8th ave for an untitled 20th century fox movie.
And more:
via @EvilVagenda
@olv I’m assuming this sign is for #Glee. It’s on 50th and 9th https://twitpic.com/4ozsqb
Christine, do you think it’s worth going to 50th and 9th tomorrow?
Does anyone know if they’re still going to be filming on Wednesday?
[…] a few hours time (3 hours and 40 minutes) the GLEE cast are shooting their load over some New York City […]
They are filming all wee in NYC — I think Annie left a comment above that they were filming outside tomorrow so it might be worth checking out
Ps u guys- if u do check it out pls send us your pics at OLV@Olocatuonbavations.con!
Does anyone know if they are filming indoors at all this week. And I seriously doubt that all of those signs are for glee, they cant be filming in so many diff locations all within a few days
They absolutely can. They are only filming Mon thru Fri, but they can have more than one unit filming at the same time, or just shoot at different times of day. I’ve seen tv shows like 30 Rock film at 3 locations in one day with only 1 unit filming, so yes, it’s possible.
Chrstine! You’re so excited! Did you mean:
Send pics to:
OLV@Onlocationvacations.com
???
🙂
yes, you are right! 🙂 I will correct, its more a matter of trying to work on my iphone under the table at Easter dinner! guess that wasn’t the best idea…. 🙂
I’m off to the location tomorrow, is it okay if I send you guys a video in case I see the cast?
So i’m going tomorrow to try to see the cast but i’m a little confused. Those signs only indicate where the trailer will be or is that where they will actually be shooting at? Do you think 10am is a good time to go down there? I have no clue where to go first. Times Square or Rockefeller Center? Sorry for all the questions.
The signs are where they will park the trucks and trailers, so can’t always tell where exactly they are shooting. Essentially, all the signs seem to say filming starting @6am and going all day, so they are probably holding the parking spaces all day because they can’t be sure exactly what time they will arrive at each location, but the spots have to be available. Hard to know where to go first.
yeah, I guess they’ll be filming all day. I heard they are only filming til the 29th. I checked the weather forecast and its supposed to rain/t-storm tues and thurs. Does anyone know what day they’ll be filming the performances inside. And will the fans actually be able to see the cast and get autographs..
Another Question…
If Glee is performing Nationals, won’t they need an audience for when they perform or are they using extras for that?
They will use extras for that. I think he said he would need maybe 700 extras for one scene, so I would assume it would be for that.
[…] is filming around 47th and 6th and 50th-51st and 8th/9th. They are filming exteriors. (Don’t forget to send us your […]
does anyone have any ideas what location they will be at for most of tomorrow? or the select few? i’m tempted to go see.
Anyone there yet? Wondering if I should head out…
Im not from NYC just here on holiday and so excited they are here while Im still here! Can anybody tell me where they would be filming so I could just get pictures?? And not where the TRucks are parked? xx
Jade, the trucks are usually parked on the same block/one or two blocks away from the actual filimg spot. Won’t be hard to see it if you find the trucks. And also, sometimes you can see signs that are supposed to tell cast/extras where the set is.
I saw Lea Michele filming in Times Square at 8:30 this morning and also noted that there is paparazzi outside some trailers on 47th near 6th.
They not hard t miss the girls on the stairs in times square any one any clue where the boys arer? X
Any specifics about tomorrow?
I went today around 2 o clock and got there by 3, and I they weren’t there anymore 🙁
What street do you think they’ll be tomorrow?
I was able to snap some pics of Lea and Chris on 47th and 6th ave and then in front of the Gershwin theater. Does anyone have any updates of where they will be tomorrow?
PLEASE let me know if and where Glee will be filming tomorrow!!! I REALLY appreciate it! Thank you sooooo much!
its supposed to rain wed and thursday and thunderstorm.. do we think they’ll do indoor things on that day?
check Tuesday’s filming locations and the calendar above for more info… we will have info everyday in the daily filming location posts…
Any word on filming location for today?
check the page with Tuesday’s filming locations. All the locations are listed there. They are in Central Park today. I’ll post any updates I get there
Does anyone know if they are filming Friday? If so then do you know where they are filming on Friday? Thanks!
They are scheduled to film through Friday, but I don’t think Christine has received any locations yet for that day.
[…] OnLocationVacations.com reports that the show will be filming today in the vicinity of 61st and 62nd, between Broadway & Columbus. There’s no news on the exact timing, but from what I’ve read in a couple of place it appears that they’re going to be there all day — “No Parking” signs at other locations have simply read “6 am – All Day.” I’ve also read elsewhere that there might be additional filming around the vicinity of 71st and Central Park West. […]
Fridays info is up on the calendar check back for we’d and thurs should have more info soon…
Dying for More info for tomorrow and Friday! Any idea how late these things run? Curse having a 9-5 job!

its listed twice which might be part of the confusion– here’s what it says:
@kweiller: @olv just walked by the signs for Glee on Hudson, says they’re shooting Friday, at least from Leroy to Barrow (didn’t walk past Barrow) imsarahmoore: #gleeinnyc Morton street from Hudson to 7th ave. This Friday https://plixi.com/p/95974589 (@olv)
is that right by the cherry lane theatre? I feel like it may make sense since its historic? thank you!
Where r they filming, I am not from city and don’t know where that is. R they filming in city on Friday? Or r they outside of city
Please tell me me, if you are able to, What time will Glee be filming on Hudson, Barrow, 7th? Will they be filming at night for any of these?
When I saw your post for 61st and 62nd I waited there for hours. A time posted would be alot easier. Thank you sooo much!
There is no way to post a time. All the parking permits just say filming 6am-all day.
Thank you! So sorry for the bother.
Any locations for week of may 1st ??
they are only filming this week
Notes are posted on Washington Square North (@ Washington Square Park) for Friday 6am – all day
thanks for the updates!
Hey does anyone know if Glee is at Washington Square Park now?
I want to know if they are filming on may 1st?? Please this is urgent! That’s the onlyday I willbe inNYC also are they filming other movies or shows??
Glee is not filming on May 1st.. They wrapped early this morning.
I believe the only thing filming on Sunday is The Amazing Spider-Man.
Locations are in the vicinity of 56th to 58th Sts. b/w 8th and 9th Ave. The signs will say filming for Fiona’s Tale, that’s the name they are using for the permits,
Thank u so much. Are there any today?
Spider-Man is filming today and tomorrow, but you had only asked about Sunday. I personally don’t know where they are staying, but I would not post that info even if I did.
Btw do u guys know where they are staying at?
