Cardiff Bay

A bustling and important area of the city during the golden era of coal in South Wales, featuring Cardiff’s riviera style waterfront.

The centrepieces are:

  • dazzling Wales Millennium Centre and,
  • Grade I red brick Pierhead Building (the former HQ of the Bute Dock Company).

The Pierhead Building and Bute Street feature in Netflix’s ‘Havoc’ and is frequently chosen as a location double for the USA and European cities. Mount Stuart Square is also an ‘Industry’ filming favourite.


The Cardiff Barrage can provide the perfect location if you need water for your shoot.
