t: 08444 539 000
Follow in the footsteps of your favourite Corrie characters and step behind the scenes of the former filming site. Coronation Street The Tour will come to an end on 31st December 2015, so this is the last chance to visit the cobbles and the world famous Quay Street set!


A fifty minute guided tour offers the ultimate, immersive Corrie experience where studio guides will share fascinating facts and stories from over fifty years of filming at the site, before production moved to its new home at MediaCityUK.


Visitors are given access to the green room, dressing rooms, wardrobe and selected interior sets including The Kabin, the Platt and Duckworth homes and Carla’s flat. There is also the opportunity to have a souvenir photo taken behind the bar of the Rovers Return, which can be purchased from the gift shop.


A highlight of the experience is the grand reveal onto Coronation Street itself, visitors can take their time walking along the cobbles and stopping for pictures in front of iconic buildings such as The Kabin, Roy’s Rolls and Street Cars. Visitors can also take a peek inside Websters’ Auto Centre, pop into Prima Doner for a selfie at the counter and learn all of the secrets of filming on the cobbles with external Street Tours running throughout the day, every day.
