Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience going on tour!

tot_dracarys_0

Last week, we posted information regarding the Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience that took place today at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.

At the event, it was announced that the “Experience” itself will not just be for those of you in southern California, but will embark on a North American Tour beginning in February of 2017 and will feature composer Ramin Djawadi.

More information from HBO including a program description along with dates, venues and the HBO fan code below the cut…

HBO has provided us with more info regarding the tour…

The concert is described as “an immersive music and visual experience that will bring the Seven Kingdoms to life on a scale never seen before. Using state-of-the-art technology, Game of Thrones composer Ramin Djawadi, along with a full orchestra and choir, will take fans on a musical journey through the realm – from King’s Landing to Winterfell, along the northern stretches of the Kingsroad to The Wall and across the Narrow Sea to Braavos, Meereen and beyond.”

“As rich as the stories, intrigue and world of Game of Thrones, Ramin’s celebrated music for the show resonated immediately with fans as the meticulously constructed songs underscored the emotional weight of key moments between beloved characters, lent scale to massive battle sequences or brought to life songs referenced in the books.  Ramin’s relentlessly popular title track alone has become instantly recognizable as a pop culture phenomenon in its own right.  Fan enthusiasm for the music from Game of Thrones® continues to grow with each season.”

Sounds pretty damn good to me.

The dates and venues are listed below. Tickets are scheduled to become available on livenation.com on August 13 and American Express Card Members on August 10, 2016.

Update: Specific ticket prices are not yet available, but the price range on one of the venues is currently listed at US $37.00-$97.00.

  1. The White Wolf!!!!

    While this is very cool stuff, I do hope they will also do an international tour as well.

  2. Already heard Hans Zimmer’s live performance and if i could listen Ramin’s GoT music in live after that i’d be soo soo damn happy.

  3. Wow, they’re playing in fairly large venues. Many of them the local NHL hockey arenas that are usually around 20k. I might have expected smaller locations. The second date in St. Paul’s Xcel for instance usually holds concerts for some pretty big tours, just as most of the others; Adele, Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, etc.

    Djawadi’s GoT music alone is worth going to listen to, but adding in visual items will be super cool! I’d like to see some video examples of the show eventually.

  4. What, this is actually coming to where I live?!?!?! Can’t believe it, HBO finally figured out that there are more than like five cities in the U.S.

  5. You have Buffalo, NY on this list, but that date isn’t on the ticketmaster/livenation website? Maybe those tickets just aren’t up yet?

  6. Oh my god! Count me in for the St. Paul show… but I don’t think I know anyone who would be willing to go! I have always been a movie score nerd…. I listen to the GoT themes driving around in my car- all of my friends who are GoT fans don’t nerd out over the score like I do.. Dammit. Guess I’ll go alone… or maybe not at all. Any cool Minnesota peeps wanna meet up? 😉

  7. Wooohooo!!! Sooo excited for this!!!! YES, me and my kids and their spouses will be going on February 19th to the United Center in Chicago!! I don’t have American Express?, so will have to wait until the 13th to purchase! Hope there will be decent seats left! Would LOVE a meet and greet for WOTW fans somehow!!! Will be so awesome to experience his with other GoT fans too!! I listen to the soundtrack season 6 everyday in my car! Love it and love Ramin, he is the best!

  8. Grumbly nitpick that once again GoT ignores the northern half of Texas. Houston and San Antonio are about 3.5 hours apart, but both are far southern Texas with Houston having more regional coverage (including San Antone and NOLA). A date in DFW would cover the above-mentioned half of the state, plus most of OK, Little Rock region of AR, northeastern LA. All that said, I am glad to see a larger range of stops.

  9. wow!!! It’s only about an hour from me!!!!

    Dragons125,
    Hey that’s where I’d be going! 🙂

    I imagine that tickets will become available at some later date. Feb is pretty far off, no?

  10. I saw this via your teaser on Facebook, and was very sad to come here and read the actual post and see that this was a U.S. event only. I think you have enough non U.S. members/followers to please take us into consideration and write “U.S. only” in such a headline over there so we won’t get all excited for nothing. Pretty please?

  11. Why is there no link for Houston on the Live Nation website or on the Game of Thrones Facebook page?!!

  12. I though there was going to be a bigger announcement … why did they need Isaac there??? …
    When are they going to begin filming???? Not a good sign that Sophie is blonde …

  13. not coming to a place near me.

    Have anybody seen Kit Harrington’s tv ad for a car company? Jon Snow driving through the North and Tormund wanting to book me a hotel room. Guess I’ll have to settle for that until next season.

    Rella,

    This is awesome news. Ill be going to the United center in Chicago. Dont have Amex card so have to wait till 13th to purchase. Would enjoy seeing some fellow watchers of the wall!

  15. Methinks they are setting their sights too high in booking enormous venues like Madison Square Garden. There will be a significant level of interest, but I don’t think that they will nearly sell out huge halls like that.

    MSG will be sold out in a heartbeat..would bet money on it

  17. Was just listening to the “Light Of The Seven” today…and hearing it in its entirety, it is a brilliant and beautiful piece of music, and I was just imagining how I might sound live in a concert hall!

  18. I was able to go to the live event today, and I’ll definitely be checking out the tour as well. I got the biggest chills listening to some of those songs live.

    Saw Kit’s car ad during the Olympics tonight! Wish the network would play it during every commercial break.

  20. This is off topic, but does any one know where I can find ratings for Canadian viewership?
    I ask because yesterday CTV Canada, one of our biggest networks, started airing season 1 of Game of Thrones, uncut, and it will be happening daily for 10 days (an episode a day), at 10pm. I am curious to see what the ratings will be!

  21. All of the good tickets will be gone by the time they go on sale to the public.

    Right now is the HBO Fans & Family Presale. Those codes have not been released to the public, which makes me think a lot of people who work for HBO will get tickets from that.

    Next is the American Express pre-sale. Most people don’t have an AE. More tickets gone.

    This is a poorly handled release to say the least. Expect to pay for tickets on stub hub for a lot more then market price if you want a good seat….

  22. Woo hoo! Siked about this coming to Charlotte! I’m already setting up child care for the night hahaha….

    agreed.
    This is really messed up when you think about it. Way to alienate the fanbase.

  24. Dee Stark,

    I mean I’ve been able to buy Playoff game tickets for the Verizon center without issue the day they went on sale, so this is kind of disappointing, esp. when the irony is today’s sale is for ‘HBO Fans’. What even constitutes that 😛 Subscribing annually to the service is not being a fan of the network?

  25. capleesi,

    I guess so… yeah I don’t get the HBO Fans thing… some how you would obtain a code.
    and for the AMex holders its understandable.
    THis is a promo tool to try and get people to buy a ticket faster.

    Its the same with payoff tickets for sens games, yeah many of the better tickets are gone , but these are people who are season ticket holders.

    Maybe if you are an HBO subscriber you get a code?

  26. I get HBO Newsletters and I subscribe to HBO Now. And I live within 45 minutes of one of the locations showing the concert. I have not gotten a code either.

    I can’t imagine what else I need to do in order to get that code sent to me.

  27. QueenofThrones,

    AWESOME!! I’m about 2.5 hours east in Syracuse, but i’m up for the drive!! ;D I travel for concerts alot… no real big arena here, just got a new outdoor ampitheater though 😉

  28. PRESALE PASSWORD is GOTTOUR.

    However, it looks like most of the seats have already sold out or they didn’t release any good ones for the presale.

    What a mess.

  29. Got into the presale today for NYC!! (code is GOTTOUR), got nice seats in the 200s section, I googled the view from there and it will be great. The 100-section seats they were selling were side/behind the stage, which is puzzling, but I’m happy with what we got!
    Anyone else in for an NYC meetup before the show?!

  30. Littlefinger’s Middlefinger: Anyone else in for an NYC meetup before the show?!

    I would like that, but being that the MSG performance happens on the first Tuesday evening of the month, I’ll be stuck upstate covering a town board meeting for my newspaper. Rats!

  31. I just went to Ticketmaster & searched for the concert. Then I put in the GOTTOUR password it asked for, and it took me to the list of venues. When I selected Denver, it sent me to a “partner site” called Altitude Tickets. I was then able to purchase the tickets. Section 122 was supposedly the “best available”, & doesn’t look bad on the seat map.

  32. Any folks in the Bay Area planning on going to the San Jose show?

    (It seems a bit of a shame they chose San Jose for the Bay Area date, since there are other venues in other towns that would be far more central, thus easier for more people to get to, but, hey, I’m just happy it will be somewhere within a couple of hours.)

  33. Aryamad:
    Lonely Cat,

    Oh nice! Cheers to that! Wonder if there will be cosplay happening.

    Woo-hoo, just got my tickets! Thanks to those of you who shared the HBO friends and family code! I could not have slept tonight if I had to wait any longer. I’m starting to doubt my sanity.

    If we can get enough people to go in costume, I will consider it! I have been obsessed with figuring out how to replicate Mad Queen Cersei’s coronation costume since S6E10 and am trying to convince my husband to do Qyburn or the High Septon (at least for Halloween). Creepiest couple ever?

  34. Ygritte: August 8, 2016 at 6:53 pm

    Me too!! Finally–Chicago! I just asked for tickets for Christmas. Hopefully, I can get my husband or one of my children to go with me. I suggested a spring break trip to Phoenix to see it there, but finances being what they are, that’s asking a bit much.

    Hope they decide to do this in Europe for those across the pond. Hearing this at some of the beautiful venues there would be awesome for you folks.

  35. I’m so jealous of all of you people it sounds amazing.Have fun and hope they put a dvd out or something lol

  36. Got my Toronto tickets. Center ice 108 row 2 🙂 A Stark table would have been nice but not for over $1200!!

  37. Winter Has Come!!!!! Yay!!!! The North Remembers…got my ticket…I’m going to heckle Ramin Djawadi from the stands!!!! Nah…just kidding…uh oh just the thought of listening to “The Light Of The Seven” live!!!! I just soiled my adult diapers…problem is I forgot to wear my adult diaper!!!!

  38. Any Valley of the Sun fans thinking of going? (I haven’t even thought about looking for tickets but if we could get some it could be fun to go as a group!)

  39. Red Viper:
    Toronto, March 4 – who’s in?

    Jason:
    Got my Toronto tickets. Center ice 108 row 2 A Stark table would have been nice but not for over $1200!!

    LTaylor:
    Red Viper,

    Me! So excited. Glad they have some canadian stops

    Awesome to see more Toronto fans. I don’t think a major GoT event has ever NOT come to the 6! I think we originated the GoT exhibition, so I love that we’re getting this!!!

    Got tickets for my brother and cousins who are majorly into GoT. Good view of the stage for a solid price for four peeps! Tried to get last minute Hip tickets and they were going for more than these tickets combined for way shittier seats!

    BTW, any other GoToronto fans go to that IMAX screening a few years back where Neil fucking Marshall was there!?! GoToronto totally gets the best events. Here’s hoping for more surprise appearances this year!

  40. Ashara D,
    Closest to stage is 500 bucks wow. Well, I’m looking at maps of United center right now and put some tickets in “shopping cart” but I can’t decide whether to spend the $99 each to sit directly across from the stage but up on balcony or $70 on one of the lower sections but that’s on an angle (not sure if there will be decent view of screen?). I’m terrible at making these kinds of decisions. I have never been there and no clue how this will be set up.

  41. Got our tickets for the United Center! So excited to see a live performance with Ramin Djawadi orchestrating. The sets they have described seem unbelievable. The music by itself is just…indescribable.This is one to check off the bucket list, for sure. Aahhhhh!!!!

  42. ygritte,

    Ours are lower level side stage. Hoping for the best, but they looked good. There were more of those available and in the 100$ range.
