King's Meadow Campus

Invest in Nottingham (the inward investment arm of Marketing Nottingham and Nottinghamshire) are proud to present an exceptional investment opportunity that has the potential to reignite the film and television sector in the East Midlands. This prime site, formerly known as the East Midlands Television Centre—later as Television House and Carlton Studios—has a rich heritage in media production and now stands ready for redevelopment into a premier TV and film studio facility.

Strategically located on the boundary of Nottingham city centre, this state-of-the-art television studio complex, originally constructed in 1982, was built to broadcast-grade specifications and remains in remarkable condition, having been carefully maintained while mothballed for several years.

Key Investment Highlights:

• Expansive 14-Acre Site: Offering substantial space for large-scale productions, with a 5-acre building footprint designed specifically for film and television use.
• High-Spec Studio Facilities: The site is pre-configured with 5 studios, including a dedicated Soundstage, and approximately 60,000 sq. ft of office space.
• Comprehensive Amenities: On-site café, gym, and 400 car parking spaces, ensuring a well-supported operational environment for production teams.
• No Planning Barriers: The site remains zoned for media production, allowing immediate commencement of film and TV activities without the need for planning permissions or structural modifications.

An Unmatched Ecosystem for Film & TV Production
Nottinghamshire is home to a thriving creative ecosystem, offering unparalleled access to industry talent, production resources, and digital innovation hubs. This investment capitalizes on:

• A Strong Pipeline of Creative Talent: With world-class institutions such as the Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies, The University of Nottingham's Virtual Immersive Production (VIP) Studio, and the Digital Transformations Hub (DTH), the region is producing a new generation of skilled professionals in film, TV, and digital production.
• Established Industry Networks: Nottingham is already home to renowned production organizations, BAFTA-winning drama groups, and specialized TV casting services, providing an embedded infrastructure to support large-scale productions.
• Connectivity to a Broader Media Landscape: The site’s central UK location ensures excellent transport links to major production hubs, making it a viable alternative to the oversubscribed studios in London and Manchester.

A Vision for the Future
With the right investment, this studio complex has the potential to be a leading production hub in the UK, driving regional economic growth, attracting international productions, and positioning Nottinghamshire at the forefront of the film and TV industry.

This is more than an acquisition—it’s a strategic investment in the future of British filmmaking.
