Alberta, Canada
Most of The Last of Us season 2 was filmed in Alberta, Canada. Production returned to Calgary and surrounding areas, using local streets, parks, and industrial sites to represent post-apocalyptic zones.
Edmonton and Surrounding Areas
Filming took place in Edmonton and nearby towns, with specific locations chosen to match the show's updated map of infected territory. Crews used both urban neighborhoods and open rural land for outdoor scenes.
Some indoor sets were built on soundstages in Alberta, while exterior shots relied on existing buildings and natural terrain. The production adapted real infrastructure to create controlled environments for complex sequences.
Why Alberta Was Chosen
Alberta offers tax incentives, diverse landscapes, and established studio support, making it a practical choice for large-scale series. Familiar crews and local permits helped streamline logistics for the second season.
