The Bottle Yard Studios, used to film the UK television series Dragons' Den, is in Bristol.
The studio complex is located in Hengrove, in the south of Bristol, and is one of the largest film and television production facilities in the United Kingdom. Its buildings were converted from a former wine bottling plant, which explains the unusual name.
Dragons' Den is one of several productions associated with the site. Studio filming lets the programme control lighting, sound, camera positions and the presentation of each entrepreneur's pitch. The programme may be associated with London because it is made for the BBC, but its studio production base is in Bristol.
A common mix-up is confusing The Bottle Yard Studios with the location of the entrepreneurs' businesses. Contestants travel to the studio to pitch, while their companies are based in many different parts of the UK. Bristol is therefore the relevant city for the production facility, not necessarily for any individual pitch.
