This is a page full of snippets of media we have come across along with some of our own behind the scenes images. Not everything ever done in the Govan Shed (by a long shot), but hopefully this selection of clips and images gives a good feel for what can be done in the building.

The exterior of the Govan Shed also served as a useful location for the exterior scenes at the start. The video received over 1.7 million views in the first four days after going online, with over 18,000 shares in the same time.

While not officially an events venue as such, the Govan Shed has provided a stunning location for popup cinema events.
