Radio 2 and 6 Music on the move as BBC closes Wogan House

The BBC is to move out of Wogan House in London and Bridge House in Media City in a bid to reduce costs.

It means BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music, along with other Wogan House-based departments, will be moving (primarily) into Broadcasting House.

Meanwhile, those at Bridge House MediaCity, where BBC Children’s and Education and some BBC Sport and operations staff are based, will move to Quay House and Dock House next door.

These moves are expected to be completed in the spring of 2024.

Wogan House is located on the junction of Gildea Street and Great Portland Street near Broadcasting House and has been a BBC building since at least 1953.

Originally named Western House, on 16 November 2016 the building was renamed Wogan House after Sir Terry Wogan who had died in January that year.
