Sky Atlantic brings Game of Thrones: The Exhibition to Sky Backstage at The O2, London this February
Sky TV customers will have exclusive access to the epic world of Westeros and beyond as Sky Atlantic brings Game of Thrones: The Exhibition to Sky Backstage at The O2, London from 9-12 February and 15-17 February 2015.
In a worldwide exclusive, Sky TV customers will be the first to experience the latest incarnation of HBO’s celebrated exhibition over seven days in London, the first destination of its international tour and the exhibition’s debut in the UK’s capital.
Open exclusively to Sky TV customers and their guests, the not-to-be-missed exhibition will focus on the fourth season of the series and feature new installations, showcasing a collection of nearly 70 original artefacts from pivotal scenes throughout the series, plus select pieces from the fifth season premiering in 2015. In addition, a new integrated web-based companion and photo stations will provide exciting new ways for fans to interact within the exhibition, placing them within some of Game of Thrones most shocking and talked-about moments. These stations will create fun and unique content that fans can share with their friends through various social media platforms. Fans can also, for the first time ever, pledge their allegiance to their favourite Game of Thrones family by joining a House before entering the exhibition.
Oculus Rift-powered virtual experience Ascend The Wall will take visitors to the top of one of the show’s most iconic set pieces while elsewhere in the Exhibition they will have the opportunity to sit on the Iron Throne and experience what it’s like to rule the Seven Kingdoms.
Sky TV customers can book up to two tickets free of charge via www.sky.com/gameofthrones Tickets will be allocated on a first come, first served basis from Monday 26 January. Updates on ticket availability will be shared via Sky Atlantic’s Twitter feed @skyatlantic.
The London location of Game of Thrones: The Exhibition is presented by Sky Atlantic and HBO. The 2015 exhibition will debut at Sky Backstage at The O2, London in February, ahead of the arrival of S1-4 TV Box Sets On Demand with Sky and NOW TV from 1 March.
