Filming Locations: Where is Mayans MC filmed?

Mayans Where Filmed

Posted by
Mayans MC is the long-awaited Sons of Anarchy spin-off, expanding its violent universe with the stories of the Mayans Motorcycle Club gang. The action takes place two and a half years after the events occurred at the end of the 7th season of the original series.

The ten-episode drama has an almost completely new cast, lead by J. D. Pardo (The Twilight Saga, Snitch) as Ezekiel. Sarah Bolger (The Tudors, Into the Badlands) is also starring in the project, along with Michael Irby (True Detective, The Unit) and Clayton Cardenas (Snowfall, American Crime).

The first season of Mayans MC was filmed in California and Mexico. We tried to keep spoilers to a minimum and as usual, we will be updating this report with new information about the filming locations of the series weekly:
