The competition series which has been garnering a lot of attention for a few months now was actually entirely filmed in Canada. Currently, two seasons of the show are on air and can be binged on Netflix. The show is based on the art of glassblowing and the competition is about who can make the best sculptures in a specific time using the glassblowing technique.

Hamilton, Ontario

As reported by Decider, Blown Away shooting locations include Hamilton, Ontario. The location is about an hour drive from the southwest of Toronto. The production company of this show Marblemedia had turned an empty warehouse in Hamilton into the largest hot shop in North America. The empty warehouse had ample space for the 10 glassblower contenders to use 10 furnaces and blow out a relevant glass sculpture via glassblowing.
