Tileyard is the world’s largest professional music community, housing over 100 recording studios, 250 music businesses and creative spaces for industry professionals.[1] Tileyard is built on a 140,000 sq ft site, north of the Regents Canal at Kings Cross, London, United Kingdom.[2]

History

Tileyard was founded in 2011 with ten studios by Paul Kempe and Nick Keynes. The community has expanded to include creative spaces, tech startups, publishing companies, management teams, distributors, AI entrepreneurs, digital agencies, record labels, and more.[3][4] Tileyard does not advertise space and securing a place relies on personal referrals.[5]
