This season, Heartland filmed at the usual sets such as the Heartland Ranch, Maggie's Diner, and the Rodeo Grounds. Set were also expanded into downtown Calgary, new parts of High River, Nanton, and Mount Royal University. The production worked with numerous horses, dogs, and cattle. There was even a Fan Day, where several hundred fans joined the cast on set as extras in the stands during a competition.

August 29 was the final shooting day and took place in the Heartland studio. Madison Thomas directed the last scene of the day. The cast, crew, and fans did a wonderful job and many of them are about to begin a well-earned break.
