A car park in south Warrington is set to close for a special reason. The closure is to make way for the filming of a Christmas charity advert. The filming is scheduled to take place on Thursday at the Pewterspear Green Trust’s car park on Stretton Road, right next to St Matthews CE Primary School.
The closure of the car park will be in effect from 6pm to 9pm. This will allow enough time for the necessary preparations to be made and for the area to be cleaned up after the filming is completed.
This is not the first time that filming has taken place in Warrington. Recently, the filming of Anemone in Orford and Thelwall attracted attention. Celebrities such as Sean Bean and Daniel Day-Lewis were spotted in the streets during the filming.
The closure of the car park for filming purposes highlights the growing popularity of Warrington as a location for film and television productions. The town’s unique charm and picturesque surroundings make it an attractive choice for filmmakers looking for the perfect backdrop for their projects.
In addition to providing a boost to the local economy through increased tourism and spending, the filming activities also create opportunities for local residents to get involved as extras or crew members. This not only helps to support the local community but also provides valuable experience and exposure for those looking to pursue a career in the film industry.
The closure of the car park may cause inconvenience to some residents, but it also serves as a reminder of the exciting opportunities that come with living in a town that is increasingly becoming a hub for creative industries. By embracing and supporting these activities, Warrington can continue to grow and thrive as a vibrant and dynamic place to live and work.
As the town continues to attract more film and television productions, residents can look forward to more opportunities to see their hometown on the big screen. This not only puts Warrington on the map as a filming destination but also showcases the town’s rich history, culture, and natural beauty to audiences around the world.
