 The exterior Hacienda scenes were faithfully shot at the correct  location, i.e. the corner of Whitworth Street West and Albion Street  in central Manchester. The Happy Mondays video shoot scene with the  children was shot at The Ritz, another nightclub on Whitworth Street  West. The interior scenes for the Factory nights in the first half  of the film were shot at Jillys (formerly Rockworld), a nightclub  around the corner on Oxford Road.
