Edinburgh city centre street closed for filming as movie makers head for capital

Edinburgh Council have announced that Niddry Street in the city centre will be closed to traffic tomorrow due to filming taking place.

The Old Town street, home to Hive nightclub, will be closed from 6am to 6pm from Wednesday July 6 to Saturday July 9 from the High Street down to Cowgate.

It is not the only filming taking place in the capital this month, with the Netflix remake of One Day set to start filming later in the month around the Southside area of the city and West End.

Edinburgh continues to be a top filming location, with many productions taking advantage of the unique architecture and aesthetic of the capital for films and TV shows.

Surrounding areas such as East Lothian have also had their Hollywood moments in recent years due to the many stunning beaches and historic buildings in the area that make ideal locations, as well as providing easy access for production crews.
