Where was Industry season 4 filmed? All the sets and locations revealed
On Location peels back the curtain on some of your favourite films, television shows, and more. This time, we take a look at Industry season 4.
Taking supporting women’s wrongs – and rights – to new levels, everyone’s favourite toxic on-screen Girl Boss duo are back for a fourth season of Industry: Harper Stern and Yasmin Kara-Hanani. This time, the drama steps beyond the fluorescent glow of Pierpoint’s trading floor and into a broader, more unsettling social landscape. Whilst capitalism is, of course, still the driving force behind each storyline, season 4 is more attuned to the power structures that orbit it. This time, Industry unfolds as a sharp, uncomfortable on-the-nose commentary of modern politics, media, technocrats and the seemingly-immovable aristocracy of British society. It’s still sweaty-palm television, but with an even more sinister edge.
That tonal shift is mirrored not only in the storytelling, but in the places the series now inhabits. If earlier seasons were defined by glass towers, sleek bars and late-night offices, this chapter (along with much of the third season) drifts into drawing rooms, golf courses and country estates.
Where was Industry filmed?
Despite the show’s fixation on the City of London, much of Industry is actually filmed in Wales, with Cardiff serving as its primary production base. Across the series, locations have included Cardiff Bay’s Oval Basin, Penarth Pier, and the grand Tredegar House in Newport, all of which appear on screen as various stand-ins for London, or for unnamed suburbs which house the private worlds of the ultra-wealthy.
While Industry depicts the corporate corridors of London’s finance world, the Welsh capital’s city centre repeatedly doubles for the City’s skyscraper landscape, with local streets and buildings dressed to resemble London’s business district.
That said, London does still feature, particularly in exterior shots used to ground the story in the capital. Across seasons, filming has taken place at recognisable spots including Primrose Hill, Greenwich Park and around the City of London’s banking district, with Southwark Bridge appearing in the closing moments of Season 3.
The Muck Manor
Sir Henry Muck, played by Kit Harington, introduces one of Season 4’s most visually striking backdrops: a grand, haunted stately home that is the perfect backdrop for both Yasmin and Henry’s marriage, seeped in horror, privilege and secrets.
