Filming at Towneley
The Film in Burnley service is managed by the Burnley Brand Team, (burnley.co.uk), although they work in partnership with Burnley Council for an efficient service. We welcome film crews, whether it’s for a Hollywood blockbuster or a small independent.
Towneley Hall and grounds
The 16th-century Towneley Hall is set in 445 acres of parkland and is owned and managed by Burnley Council employees, along with the green space and golf green. It regularly hosts weddings and exhibitions, while the grounds host large-scale events such as Retro and Wile Out festivals and the Burnley Business Awards, the latter of which see 500 guests enjoy celebrations in a huge marquee. There is also woodland and a large children’s play area, along with a garden centre.

Your dedicated support
Burnley benefits from a dedicated full-time Burnley Place Brand Team. Their position as the bridge between private sector and Burnley Council means you have access to both the public and private sector. They will be more than happy to help with any enquiries relating to filming, as well as assist you with location ideas.
