Games Of Thrones Live Concert Is Coming To A Near You

Winter is coming, and while the world
waits to see who conquers the Seven
Kingdoms of Westeros, Game of Thrones
composer Ramin Djawadi, and his army
of 80 orchestra members and choir
singers, will descend upon 28-cities in
America. The arena tour, which starts
February 15, 2017 in Kansas City,
Missouri will feature the series’ greatest
hits — “Light of the Seven,” “The Winds
of Winter,” “Main Title,” and other
classics you hum in the shower or make
up words to — performed by the
musicians on a 360-degree stage. “We
really wanted to make it a special
event,” Djawadi told Billboard. “We
wanted it to be an immersive
experience so that when you’re walking
into the [arena], you are in Westeros.”
So how does your major city’s run-of-
the-mill 10,000-plus seat venue get
transformed into a Medieval-esque
magical fantasy world? According to
Billboard, through LED telescoping, wall
screens and 3D designs. No word on
whether a dragon will appear. Stops
include New York, Chicago, Houston
and Los Angeles; tickets go on sale
August 13 through Live Nation
