Even if you’ve never visited Salford Museum & Art Gallery, you might have seen it on TV, or even the big screen!

Our historic building has featured in a range of productions, from films, to TV dramas, documentaries and children’s shows.

We’ve also been known to host photography shoots, with our recreated Victorian Street Lark Hill Place acting as a unique backdrop or one of our galleries hosting photographers and models.

Full venue hire/closure for filming:

  • £6000 per day
  • Individual galleries – (£600 minimum of half day hire) with additional hours charged £200.

If you’re interested in booking Salford Museum & Art Gallery either as a location for filming or for a photography shoot and would like to come for a show round, please get in touch and make an enquiry by emailing us at salford.museum@scll.co.uk.

Student filming requests

We receive many requests from students regarding the use of the venue for their filming projects. We are happy to support these requests when possible, during our quieter times (after 2.30pm). Please contact salford.museum@scll.co.uk regarding availability.

Please note due to copyright and loan agreements we do not allow filming or photography shoots in the museum without the express written permission of the venue. To avoid disappointment please aware that all filming requests must be submitted in writing.
