Entertain campers and staff risk-free. The MPLC license lets you show and stream movies and TV programs while complying with copyright law.
MPLC eliminates the copyright compliance gap that campgrounds, RV parks, and glamping sites didn’t know they have – the unlicensed use of TV, movies and streaming on screens in the places where guests and staff gather. MPLC’s one simple license closes that gap and protects campgrounds from this unanticipated legal exposure.
Showing licensed entertainment offers campers a way to unwind after hiking, swimming, and other outdoor activities. With an MPLC license, you can offer movie nights or stream popular TV programming that brings campers together.
Under copyright law, when campgrounds show copyrighted content (TV, streaming, videos and film), it’s a public performance that requires a license. The MPLC license protects you from risk.
MPLC removes the unknown copyright risk in areas where campers and staff gather to watch TV and movies. One simple license covers a lot of screens and retroactively resolves unintentional exposure.
Movies and TV programs shown or screened on your campground is an amenity that enhances visitor and staff experiences. With an MPLC license, you can be confident you’re doing it legally.
An MPLC License is an easy, smart investment. Licensing is simple, and the coverage is comprehensive.
It only takes five minutes to apply. One license and your campground is fully covered.
One simple MPLC Blanket License preserves and expands the valued content that delights campers and entertains staff.
Turn on those screens with peace of mind. With the MPLC license, you’re protected from copyright risk.
Many campground, RV park, and glamping teams are not aware that there can be a gap between accessing content and having permission to show it in a commercial setting. If TV, movies, or streaming content are shown in shared spaces anywhere on your grounds, an MPLC license closes that gap. With a quick application, you are fully compliant with the law and can continue showing your patients and staff our rightsholder content with confidence.
Campgrounds, RV parks, and glamping sites that do not have a license are subject to fines and damages of up to $150,000 per copyrighted work. This often happens without awareness of the law. An MPLC license removes that uncertainty and provides reassurance that your use of content is appropriately covered.
The MPLC Blanket License provides a simple, all-in-one solution. It covers a wide range of content from thousands of rightsholders, so you don’t have to track usage or manage permissions screen by screen, making compliance straightforward.
Yes. Just as ASCAP and BMI cover music use in public settings, MPLC covers TV, films, and streaming content.
MPLC has been in business for nearly 40 years and has provided licenses to thousands of campgrounds across the US and in 33 other countries around the world. MPLC’s camping US licensees include Chaparral Family Campground, Hideaway RV Resort, Cherry Hill Park (glamping), and Westfield Lake Erie KOA. We also work with campground associations to help their members continue to publicly show TV, news, and film content (legally) at their premises.
The MPLC Blanket License is a simple fee. You don’t need to tell us which movies you are showing or watching. There is no ongoing reporting or admin paperwork. The cost of a license depends on:
