Here’s the latest on where Riot Women was filmed.
- Primary filming locations: Hebden Bridge and wider Calderdale, West Yorkshire, with shoots also taking place in Halifax areas and surrounding mills. This aligns with recent BBC productions set in that region.[1][4][5]
- Notable venues repeatedly cited: Calder Royal Hospital, Holdsworth House, and various town centers in Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, Todmorden, and surrounding blocks used for band scenes and performances.[4][6][1]
- Confirmation of ongoing series: the show has been renewed for a second series, continuing to utilize the same West Yorkshire locations, reinforcing Hebden Bridge as a core filming backdrop.[8][4]
If you’d like, I can pull together a concise map of the exact streets and venues cited in recent articles so you can plan a local filming-site tour.
