New Zealand Gets A New Film & TV Studio As Banijay’s Screentime Launches Remarkable Studios NZ In Queenstown


A new film and TV studio has opened its doors in Queenstown, New Zealand.

Marco Bassetti, CEO, and Fred Balmary, Chief Business Officer, Banijay Entertainment paid testament to De Lacey for realizing the studios project. In a joint statement they said: “Standing as our tenth studios globally, but certainly first in a re-purposed department store, the groundbreaking facilities have emerged at the perfect moment – a time where production costs are soaring, and producers everywhere are looking for economical solutions. New Zealand has a storied film history, and De Lacey hopes the combination of new Studios, scenery, infrastructure and decent tax incentive, will be a shot in the arm for the industry, which weathered a tough time through Covid.
