Tate welcomes all types of filming including feature films, television dramas, documentaries, interviews, photographic shoots and student projects. We can also facilitate filming for commercials providing there is no conflict with Tate's existing corporate relationships.
Both Tate Modern and Tate Britain can be used for location filming and have a range of unique spaces.
Tate Modern offers contemporary architectural spaces and spectacular views of the London skyline and has been the location for several recent feature films including Bridget Jones's Diary, Match Point, The Constant Gardener and Children of Men.
The Turbine Hall can accommodate large crews, and even vehicles, while the East Room makes an ideal location for interviews or smaller scenes.

Tate Britain, situated on the river Thames at Millbank, London, offers an altogether different filming environment, with its classical architectural spaces and grand galleries built to showcase nineteenth-century paintings. It has been used as a location for Enduring Love, Armadillo and Van Wilder II.

These are a selection of locations on offer - please contact our Filming Manager to discuss your particular requirements.
The galleries are normally available to film crews before 10.00 and after 18.00, when the galleries are closed, but some areas are available at all times of the day or night. Location fees start from £200 per hour and rates for long filming periods are negotiable.
