Game of Thrones is always finding new territory to put on film, adding Spain to their list of countries and further exploring Northern Ireland.
Osuna, Spain, has long been known to be a shooting location for the show’s fifth season, with the town’s bullring a notable site. A few other areas around Osuna were scouted as well, without any being officially confirmed.

The Wall can be a cold and unforgiving place, so we Watchers need to find some way to keep ourselves entertained. But, since we can only remember half the words to “The Rains of Castamere” and none of us can play the harp, a good, old-fashioned sing-a-long is out; as is a brief trip to Molestown (too poor), or a foray into the Haunted Forest (too scared).
So instead, we bring you, dear readers, a celebration of you, our black brothers and sisters in arms with a week-long giveaway of some of the finest merchandise in all the realm!
Though Winterfell was taken by the Ironborn and burned by the Boltons, the former seat of House Stark remains, and the set is now taking shape again in Northern Ireland.
Originally built at Castle Ward, the set being built this year in Moneyglass (as it was season 2) includes the courtyard where much of the Winterfell action has taken place.
Filming for Game of Thrones season 5 will soon begin in Dubrovnik, with the Croatian city once more representing King’s Landing.
Sources have revealed the Game of Thrones production team’s schedule for filming in the city. Some of these locations are new, and some have been used previously. Note that these are just the locations to be used in the Old City; it is expected that locations in greater Dubrovnik will also be used.
Death is something Game of Thrones does fantastically well, and there was a strong batch of nominees in round one. Five winners stood above the others (until their untimely ends, anyway), and have made it to the final round of voting.
Filming of Game of Thrones season 5 continues in the Croatian town of Šibenik today.
Yesterday, one fan even managed to capture some footage of the goings on in the square by the Cathedral of St. James, where cast members Maisie Williams, Ian Beattie, Mark Gatiss, and Roger Ashton-Griffiths have all been seen filming.

The five performers nominated for Best Supporting Actress of Game of Thrones Season 4 have been chosen by you, the viewers and the readers of Watchers on the Wall. A month ago, when the polling began, we asked fans to decide who should compete for the prize and we heard you loud and clear.
Details surrounding the shooting schedule for the Alcázar gardens in Seville, Spain, are just starting to emerge, with local sources reporting that the site will be partially or, on some days, completely closed to visitors in early October.
Details after the jump!
Location shooting in the Croatian town of Sibenik for Game of Thrones season 5 began today, and several of the show’s actors were on hand for filming.
Slobodnadalmacija.hr snapped several photos of the scene being shot in front of the historic Cathedral of St. James. There was reportedly controversy over the use of the site but that appears to have been resolved.
The scene filmed involves Mark Gatiss as Tycho Nestoris, Roger Ashton-Griffiths as Mace Tyrell, and Ian Beattie as Ser Meryn Trant. With the characters present and the costuming of the extras, we can see that Sibenik’s square by the cathedral will be standing in for the Free City of Braavos.
