The Paramount+ series “The Madison” is mainly filmed in Montana and North Texas, with a few scenes shot in New York City.

Main filming locations

  • Montana (primary setting)
    • Gallatin County, including Bozeman and the surrounding area, is used heavily for the Montana storyline.
* Madison County, especially the town of Ennis plus Virginia City and Sheridan, provides most of the rural Madison River Valley scenery.
  • Texas (doubling as New York City)
    • The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex stands in for many New York City street scenes.
* Downtown Dallas (including Main Street) and downtown Fort Worth (notably 7th Street between Taylor and Lamar, and nearby blocks) were dressed to look like Manhattan.
  • New York City (select shots)
    • A smaller portion is filmed in actual NYC, mainly skyline and establishing shots featuring landmarks like Manhattan’s high‑rises and Times Square.
