“Tinsel Town” (the 2025 festive comedy with Kiefer Sutherland and Rebel Wilson) was filmed across Yorkshire, England , using several real towns and local landmarks as its backdrop.

Key points:

  • Principal photography took place in Yorkshire, UK.
  • The production used real streets, pubs, town halls, and a theatre to create the small-village feel.

Several Yorkshire locations stand in for the film’s “Tinsel Town” village.

Notable places include:

Behind-The-Scenes Vibe

The director has said the story “had to be in Yorkshire” to get that cozy, chocolate‑box Christmas village look.

  • The team filmed when Christmas lights were still up, with local councils and businesses keeping decorations in place for the shoot.
  • Parts of Harrogate and Leeds were also used to round out the on‑screen village.
