Season 4 and season 5 part 1 stir up plenty of new drama, but outside of that, did you notice the change of scenery from the first three seasons? According to The Salt Lake Tribune, season 4 was filmed almost exclusively in Montana. The decision to stop any production in Utah was largely financial, because the state’s “limited tax incentive program will not provide [the show] with the same rebates” they previously received.
The same is to be said for season 5 as well—at least part 1! There were a handful of different Montana cities used in the first half of the most recent season (which aired back in November 2022). More specifically, Helena, Montana—the state’s actual capital—was an important location used. This is where Beth’s office scenes take place! (That would make sense, if you think about it.)
Is Yellowstone filmed in Texas?
Yellowstone fans in Texas got the surprise of a lifetime when the show’s cast and crew showed up in their small town to shoot at a local cafe for season 4.
Mary Anderson, the owner of Mary’s Brazos Cafe in Parker County, North Texas, “couldn’t believe it was actually happening.”
“The street on the other side [of the cafe] was lined up with my customers watching and trying to see what was going on,” Mary told Outsider. “It was awesome.”
When asked why he decided to film at Mary’s, Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan told local news it was “because that’s where we have breakfast when I’m here.”
And now that we know Sheridan’s new show 6666 is based on a ranch in Texas, this makes a whole lot more sense!
