«Belfast» was one of the first films shot during the coronavirus pandemic, which affected the approach to filming. Initially, it was planned that the street depicted in the film would be built in a prestigious part of London, but due to the pandemic this was deemed impractical, so it was decided that they would need to recreate the street used on the set. The end of a runway at Farnborough Airport was used.
