Where Was Loki Filmed?

The TVA atrium is a real Atlanta hotel, and season 2 moved to England. Here is where to find Loki's actual filming sites.

The Short Answer

Loki season 1 was filmed around Atlanta, Georgia, mainly at Trilith Studios and the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, which doubles as the TVA headquarters atrium. Season 2 shifted to Pinewood Studios near London, with UK locations including Historic Chatham Dockyard in Kent and The Fighting Cocks pub in Kingston upon Thames.

Loki ran from 2021 to 2023 and sent its title character through the Time Variance Authority, apocalyptic moons, and various decades of Earth history. The production, however, stayed close to two bases: the Atlanta metro area for season 1 and the London area for season 2.

The result is a split pilgrimage. Georgia offers a hotel atrium that Marvel fans can walk into for free, plus a mall, a cemetery abbey, and festival grounds. England adds a maritime museum and a pub where Loki and Sylvie shared a scene, with a plaque to prove it.

Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Atlanta
Location 01

Atlanta Marriott Marquis

Georgia, Atlanta, United States Free to see

Filmed here: TVA headquarters atrium, elevators, and lobby scenes

The TVA headquarters atrium, elevators, and lobby scenes were filmed in this working hotel, known locally as the Pregnant Building for its dramatic architecture. It is the single most recognizable Loki location and one of the easiest to visit. It remains an active hotel, so anyone can stay the night or simply walk into the lobby and atrium during a visit. The building also appeared in the Hunger Games films.

North DeKalb Mall, Decatur

North DeKalb Mall

Georgia, Decatur, United States Free to see

Filmed here: Roxxcart superstore in 2050 Haven Hills, Alabama (apocalyptic scenes)

The Roxxcart superstore in 2050 Haven Hills, Alabama, was shot here, inside a vacant Macy's that the production dressed with inflated prices and humorous taglines. The apocalyptic episode scenes unfolded in this ordinary shopping mall in Decatur, Georgia. The mall is open to the public, so visitors can walk through and picture the raided shelves and collapsing timeline.

Georgia Renaissance Festival grounds, Fairburn
Location 03

Georgia Renaissance Festival grounds

Georgia, Fairburn, United States Ticketed

Filmed here: 1985 Renaissance Faire in Oshkosh, Wisconsin (Episode 2)

Episode 2's 1985 Renaissance Faire in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, was filmed on these grounds in Fairburn, Georgia, over just a few days in February 2020. Outside the show, the site hosts a seasonal Renaissance festival. Access requires tickets, and the festival only runs during its season, so travelers hoping to stand where Loki and Sylvie fled through the fair should time a trip accordingly.

Westview Cemetery / Westview Abbey, Atlanta
Location 04

Westview Cemetery / Westview Abbey

Georgia, Atlanta, United States Free to see

Filmed here: 1549 Aix-en-Provence church abbey scene (Episode 1)

The 1549 Aix-en-Provence church abbey scene in Episode 1 was filmed here at this Atlanta cemetery. The abbey and mausoleum interior, which stood in for a French church, is accessible to visitors during opening hours, making this one of the more atmospheric stops on a Loki tour of the city. The cemetery is public and free to visit.

Historic Chatham Dockyard, Chatham
Location 05

Historic Chatham Dockyard

Kent, Chatham, United Kingdom Ticketed

Filmed here: No. 3 Covered Slip scenes (Episode 2)

The No. 3 Covered Slip scenes in Episode 2 of season 2 were filmed at this maritime museum in Chatham, Kent. The historic dockyard is open to the public with tickets and has hosted multiple film productions over the years. Visitors can explore the covered slips and surrounding historic ships and buildings that formed the backdrop for Loki's second season.

The Fighting Cocks pub, Kingston upon Thames
Location 06

The Fighting Cocks pub

London, Kingston upon Thames, United Kingdom Free to see

Filmed here: 1980s Oklahoma bar scene with Loki and Sylvie

The 1980s Oklahoma bar scene between Loki and Sylvie was filmed at this active pub in Kingston upon Thames, southwest of London. It remains open for drinks, and fans can find a plaque marking Loki's stool. Of all the Loki locations, this is arguably the most enjoyable to visit, since it requires nothing more than ordering a pint.

Pinewood Atlanta Studios / Trilith Studios, Fayetteville
Location 07

Pinewood Atlanta Studios / Trilith Studios

Georgia, Fayetteville, United States Private property

Filmed here: TVA sets, practical interiors, many soundstage scenes

The TVA sets, practical interiors, and many soundstage scenes for season 1 were built at this studio in Fayetteville, Georgia. Season 1 used practical sets for about 90 to 95 percent of locations, with minimal green screen in early episodes. The lot is closed to the public, with no tours offered, so this is a drive-by or neighborhood-glance stop only.

The Proscenium, Atlanta
Location 08

The Proscenium

Georgia, Atlanta, United States Outside only

Filmed here: Stark Tower lobby (from Endgame footage reused)

This Atlanta office building appears via Stark Tower lobby footage from Endgame that was reused in Loki. It is a working office building, so only exterior views are possible; the interior was not used for Loki filming and is not public. Visitors ticking off Marvel sites in downtown Atlanta can view the facade from the street.

Where It Is Set Versus Where It Was Filmed

The story sends Loki across multiple timelines and fictional places: the TVA outside of time, the shattered moon Lamentis-1, Asgard, and various Earth eras from 1549 Provence to 2050 Alabama. Almost none of it was filmed where it is set. Season 1 shot primarily in the Atlanta metro area of Georgia, while season 2 was produced mainly at Pinewood Studios near London with additional UK locations in Kent and southwest London.

The Studio Side

Season 1 was based at Trilith Studios in Fayetteville, Georgia, then known as Pinewood Atlanta Studios. Season 2 moved to Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, England, which even received some season 1 sets, including the Citadel, shipped over from Atlanta. Neither studio offers public tours, so the practical appeal for visitors lies in the outside locations instead.

Tours That Visit These Locations

Only one bookable tour connects directly to Loki's filming sites, and it operates in Atlanta, where most of season 1 was shot. It is a general Marvel and film location tour rather than a dedicated Loki experience, but it includes the stop that matters most to fans of the show.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can You Visit The TVA Headquarters?

Yes, in a sense. The TVA atrium, elevators, and lobby scenes were filmed at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, an active hotel. Anyone can walk into the lobby and atrium, or book a room and sleep inside the Time Variance Authority.

Where Was Loki Season 2 Filmed?

Season 2 was mainly shot at Pinewood Studios near London, England, with additional UK locations including Historic Chatham Dockyard in Chatham, Kent, and The Fighting Cocks pub in Kingston upon Thames. Some season 1 sets, like the Citadel, were shipped from Atlanta to the UK for reuse.

Is Trilith Studios Open To Visitors?

No. Trilith Studios, formerly Pinewood Atlanta Studios, is a closed production lot with no public access or tours. Visitors to the Fayetteville, Georgia area can only view the exterior.

Where Was The Roxxcart Superstore Scene Filmed?

The apocalyptic Roxxcart scenes were shot inside a vacant Macy's at North DeKalb Mall in Decatur, Georgia. The mall is open to the public, though the dressed set elements are long gone.

Where Was The Lamentis-1 Moon Filmed?

A stone quarry near Loganville, Georgia, was transformed into the surface of Lamentis-1 for season 1. It is a quarry, not a developed visitor attraction, so it is not a practical stop for most travelers.

Can You Drink At The Bar From Loki?

Yes. The Fighting Cocks pub in Kingston upon Thames, where the 1980s Oklahoma bar scene between Loki and Sylvie was filmed, remains open. A plaque marks Loki's stool.

Atlanta offers the deepest Loki experience: a free-to-enter TVA atrium, a mall, a cemetery abbey, and a private tour that ties Marvel filming sites together. England adds a strong season 2 pairing of a ticketed maritime museum and a working pub. Between the two, most major Loki locations are surprisingly reachable.
