FAQs about Top Film and TV Studios in Toronto, ON

Many of the city’s studios are located in the Downtown area and are within easy reach of the Gardiner Expressway. The formerly industrial neighborhood between Dupont Street and Bloor St W also has several studios for hire. North of this area, around Thorncliffe Park, and also south of this area, around Kensington Market and the Osgoode subway station, there are many great medium-sized studios. Moving further south towards the lakeside, The Port Lands also offers several studios and can be quickly reached via the Lake Shore Expressway. If you are looking to move away from the deep downtown, check to the west, towards Eatonville and the fantastic studios out there.

When hiring a studio for a film or TV shoot, be aware that prices can vary quite drastically depending on the size of the space and the complexity of your requirements. For a smaller blank canvas space equipped with lighting, costs will range from $100 to $500 per hour. For larger studios of 1400 sq feet or more, prices will increase as will the costs for incidentals such as prep and wrap days, painting, equipment hire, etc. Basic rent for the space will start around $1500 for one day (12 hours) hire and basic lighting costs will range between $800 to $1000. Every studio should be prepared to put together a custom quote for you depending on your needs. (All data from Tagvenue.)

When hiring a film and tv studio it is best to understand your requirements ahead of time. Studios generally offer a range of large and small sound stages, as well as other important spaces for rehearsal, makeup and dressing rooms. You may also need workshop space and room for props. Basic technical equipment may be included as part of the rental agreement, however, be sure to clarify this ahead of time. The studio may be able to suggest where to hire equipment and perhaps even offer recommended crew persons if necessary.

Your Guide to Renting Film and TV Studios in Toronto, ON

In order to make an optimal choice of your TV or film studio, you should consider every option available. Whenever you struggle to find the type of venue that would suit your project best, check out these alternative choices for filming spaces:

4 outside-the-box spaces for your next film production

  • Blank canvas spaces: These spaces are extremely versatile, they're easy to maintain, and they’re abundant in central Toronto. Blank canvases can be adapted for anything from a short film to an ambitious TV show.
  • Photo studios: If all you need is a solid backdrop, lighting, and a camera, a photo studio may be exactly what you should be looking for. We highly recommend them for independent shows, news coverage, and film scenes.
  • Warehouses: Warehouses are like blank canvas studios, but they offer so much more open space, both vertical and horizontal. If you want to build your own set and have lots of control over the final result, this is a good way to achieve that.

Best Film and TV Studios for Hire in Toronto

If you’re after professional-grade facilities with advanced equipment and room for more complex productions, Toronto has several studios that balance price and quality.

Sorry Studio in Liberty Village is one of the city’s most sought-after spaces for larger film and television productions. Known for its spacious layout and high ceilings, the studio easily accommodates full lighting rigs and set constructions. It’s perfect for music videos, commercial shoots, and multi-camera productions. The venue also offers in-house support staff to help with technical setup, saving you time during pre-production.

96 On Vine – Photo Studio with Pro Lighting in the Junction Area, caters to both film and photography projects. This studio includes high-quality continuous lighting and several backdrop options, making it ideal for scripted content, interviews, and fashion films. With its modern aesthetic and professional amenities, this space ensures a smooth workflow from start to finish.

Pro Tip: When working with larger studios, always inquire about included equipment. Some venues advertise lower hourly rates but charge separately for lighting, props, and even power usage. Confirm all inclusions upfront to avoid hidden costs.

Cheap Film and TV Studios for Hire in Toronto

Producing quality content on a budget is possible if you know where to look. Toronto has a solid range of budget-friendly studios that cater to indie filmmakers, content creators, and small production teams.

  • Sleepless Studios in West Queen West offers a compact, affordable space that’s ideal for product videos, interviews, and small commercial shoots. The studio comes with basic lighting equipment and clean backdrops, allowing quick setup and efficient shooting. Despite the low price, the space is well-maintained, making it a go-to for content creators on tight schedules.
  • For larger projects that still need to keep costs under control, Studio Cozy in Dovercourt-Wallace Emerson offers a more expansive space with neutral sets and a modular layout. It’s suitable for both film and television projects requiring multiple scene setups in a single day. The open design makes it easy to switch between camera angles and set configurations without wasting time.

Pro Tip: Many affordable studios offer cheaper rates on weekdays or for longer sessions. Booking off-peak hours is an easy way to keep costs even lower without sacrificing studio time.
