WELCOME TO THE BOTTLE YARD STUDIOS
The largest film and TV studio in the West of England
Located in Bristol, an internationally recognised UNESCO City of Film,
The Bottle Yard is at the heart of a thriving TV and film industry in one
of the UK’s most creative, film-friendly cities.
We have the space for your next screen creation.
Eight stages are available for hire across our seven-acre main site,
plus three new premium quality sound stages opening in Autumn 2022
at TBY2 (pg17), our brand new neighbouring facility. Floor spaces
of up to 22,000 sq ft and heights of up to 34ft, translate into endless
opportunities for set builds.
Add to this our 5,000 sq ft green screen, 35,000 sq ft of furnished
production office space across our two sites and all the ancillary
workspaces a production could need - plus an onsite community
of over 25 companies providing specialist film and TV services -
and we’ve got everything you require for a fully supported
shoot. Drama, entertainment, comedy, children’s,
commercials, live transmission or OB.
Our space, your creativity.
It’s all here.
