Netflix\u2019s Squid Game: The Challenge<\/a> has taken the streaming site by storm, much like the original drama series did when it debuted in 2021.<\/p>\n

The competition series sees 456 real players take on the Squid Games, in the hopes of winning a life-changing $4.56 million.<\/p>\n

In order to win the cash prize, the players must compete in various games inspired by the original show.<\/p>\n

Everything will be tested, included their strategies, alliances and their character, as their competitors are eliminated around them any every step.<\/p>\n

When the drama series hit the streaming site, the location didn\u2019t seem real, and since then it has all been completely rebuilt with new additions to give the players a completely authentic and immersive experience.<\/p>\n

So, where is the Squid Game: The Challenge<\/a> filming location? Read on for all the information.<\/p>

Where is Squid Game: The Challenge filmed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Squid Game: The Challenge was filmed at Wharf Studios in London<\/strong> over the course of 16 days.<\/p>\n

A total of six interconnected sound stages were taken up by production to allow players to live inside a \u201ccompletely immersive world\u201d.<\/p>\n

The only point of the show where filming took place elsewhere was during the Red Light, Green Light game.<\/p>\n

Red Light, Green Light was filmed at Cardington Studios in Bedford<\/strong>, Europe\u2019s largest indoor space. At over 100,000 square feet, the space was previously used to build airships and zeppelins in the 1920s and \u201930s.<\/p>\n

A lot of work went into making the competition look just as it did in the drama series, including items that were CGI\u2019d into the original drama.<\/p>\n

For example, the piggy bank that the players see fill up with money every time a contestant is eliminated was created for the very first time for Squid Game: The Challenge<\/a>.<\/p>
