Bulgaria’s largest film studios with 13 sound stages and 120 production offices.

Nu Boyana Film Studios broke ground in 1951 and construction was completed in 1963. Originally the studios were state owned and played a significant role in the ideological mapping of Eastern Europe.

I really enjoyed shooting in Bulgaria. Not a lot of places where you can drive 20 minutes from the studio and you can be in a forest mountain, you can be in a city, you can be in the countryside, you can find all these different terrains and textures and that’s certainly been one of the great aspects of shooting here.

We also have a huge variety of urban settings and locations, with buildings ranging from grand and ancient to sleek and modern, all within or near Sofia. The sheer diversity, coupled with our experience in obtaining filming permission, gives us a competitive edge on most other European studios.

Streets and cities can be built on the lot, but mountains and forests are much more cost-effective if they occur naturally. The wooded mountainside of Vitosha rises up behind the lot to a spectacular height of 2,290m and we also have crystal clear rivers and lakes, lush green fields stretching out across the midlands, and spectacular sandy beaches merging with idyllic views of the picturesque Black Sea.

Take your pick from beautifully preserved examples from the time of the Thracian kings (325 BC), the Byzantium Empire (330-1204 AD) and Ottoman rule (1299-1923)

At your disposal are the urban authentic sets of New York and London located in the heart the studios.
