Our home base. Production service for commercials, music videos, TV and film in Bulgaria – studios and backlots, mountains, sea and Cold War icons, with a 25% cash rebate and a Sofia team since 2014.
Bulgaria combines major studios and standing backlots near Sofia with mountains, the Black Sea, Roman ruins, palaces and socialist-era icons – all within a few hours’ drive.
Crews are experienced from decades of international features such as The Expendables 2, Hellboy and Conan the Barbarian, costs are among the lowest in the EU, and Bulgaria combines easily with Greece, Romania, North Macedonia, Serbia and Türkiye.

Commercials are not covered by the rebate, but Bulgaria is still one of Europe’s best-value places to shoot them. Send us your brief.
