A slice of the action

The Pie Factory, the new home to film, television and commercial production in the North West, comprises sound-stages, production offices and ‘on the lot’ companies who specialise in casting, camera hire, lighting, television and commercial production.

We are the only operating building on the up-and-coming mediacity:uk site, which is already under construction and has been confirmed as the site that the BBC will move five departments to.

The Pie Factory is easily accessible by motorway and Metrolink from Manchester City Centre.
