BBC Pacific Quay (Scottish Gaelic: Cidhe a' Chuain Shèimh) is the headquarters of BBC Scotland, serving as its main television and radio studio complex, situated at Pacific Quay, Glasgow, Scotland.[1]

Opened by then Prime Minister Gordon Brown on 20 September 2007, the building was designed by architect David Chipperfield to feature an all glass facade which would change throughout the day, as well as different seasons and from various vantage points from across Pacific Quay.[2] Within the building internally, a "stepped street" design rises throughout the entire length of BBC Pacific Quay. This design allows opportunities to employees to enter into break-out spaces, together with a range of different meeting areas.[3]

A range of production and filming for BBC Scotland takes place at BBC Pacific Quay, including Reporting Scotland, Frontline Scotland and Sportscene.
