Par Mulder, 23 avril 2018

HBO Licensing & Retail, GES Events and OCS, the French exclusive broadcaster of all new episodes of Game of Thrones, announced today that Game of Thrones : The Touring Exhibition will open at Paris Expo / Porte de Versailles on June 1st,, 2018 and remain open through to September 2nd, 2018. This exhibition is presented in partnership with Encore Productions.

The new 2,000-square-meter interactive experience, inspired by the hit HBO series, is filled with breathtaking images and enthralling artifacts to give Game of Thrones fans an up-close and personal look at authentic props, costumes and set decorations from the groundbreaking show. Tickets to this blockbuster event are available at www.gameofthronesexposition.fr starting Tuesday, April 24.

Game of Thrones : The Touring Exhibition will allow fans worldwide to experience the craftsmanship and artistry of the Game of Thrones production up close in the largest public display to date. Featuring a unique mix of immersive environments, interactives, and multimedia content, visitors will experience the lands of Westeros and Essos and relive the trials and tribulations of the series’ nobles and common folk alike who struggle for survival in the shadow of the Iron Throne. Several dynamically themed exhibition areas based on series settings will feature displays of costumes, props, weapons and armor in an immersive way:

The wintry landscapes of the North, the tree-lined pathway of the Kingsroad, and the regal settings of King’s Landing. The conquered city of Meereen with its garrisons of Unsullied warriors and the loyalists of House Targaryen. Iconic settings like the House of Black and White, the home of the Night’s Watch: Castle Black; and the frozen lands Beyond the Wall. The show-stopping centrepiece of the iconic Iron Throne Room, where visitors can gaze upon the Westerosi seat of power in all its foreboding glory. “We couldn’t be more excited to bring GAME OF THRONES: THE TOURING EXHIBITION to Paris this summer,” said Jeff Peters, vice president of licensing and retail at HBO. “After the overwhelmingly positive response from the global debut in Barcelona, we are thrilled to share the experience with our French Game of Thrones fans.”

“The next stop for GAME OF THRONES: THE TOURING EXHIBITION in Paris promises to be exciting,” said Robin Stapley, vice president of creative and design at GES Events. “To see, in one place, the beautiful, hand-crafted work of the talented artisans, designers, and craftsmen who bring the world of Westeros to life will be thrilling, and we are so happy to bring it to Paris this summer.”

“It is a great pleasure and an honor to be part of this new adventure,” said Pascal Bernardin of Encore Productions. “At last this iconic series has been turned into a live exhibition, Paris is impatiently awaiting its arrival.” Additional information will be released in the coming weeks.

Since then and as a subsidiary of Orange, OCS now offers to its subscribers an unlimited access to the full HBO catalogue of several thousand hours of series, films and other programs via a dedicated SVOD HBO area on OCS Go, the OCS catch-up service. The arrival of GAME OF THRONES®: THE TOURING EXHIBITION is a new opportunity for Westeros fans to re-watch all seasons of the worldwide acclaimed show on OCS Go. Last season will air on 2019 at the same time as in the US.
