Waco: The Rules of Engagement
Waco has been camera-ready since Chip and Joanna Gaines began filming Fixer Upper for HGTV — and home renovations are just the start.
Certified Film Friendly by the Texas Film Commission, Waco offers dozens of filming locations: the Brazos River, Baylor's campus, a downtown that doubles as any small or mid-sized American city, Cameron Park Zoo, the historic Waco Suspension Bridge, hiking and biking trails, Lake Waco, the Bosque River, music venues, museums, parks, sports facilities, festivals, a whiskey distillery, and ranches.
