“Bringing the Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience to audiences across Europe earlier this year was a dream come true, dating back to an idea hatched over four years ago,” said Djawadi. “The scale and spectacle of the production brought the world of Westeros to life in a truly immersive fashion, and I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to share the experience with fans in North America who may have missed the original version of the tour last year.”
As rich as the stories, intrigue and world of Game of Thrones, Ramin’s celebrated music for the show has resonated with fans from the very beginning, as the meticulously constructed songs underscored the emotional weight of key moments between beloved characters, lent scale to massive battle sequences and brought to life songs referenced in George R.R. Martin’s books. Ramin’s relentlessly popular title track alone has become an instantly recognizable pop culture phenomenon in its own right.
“HBO is thrilled to welcome North American Game of Thrones fans to the updated version of the Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience this fall,” said Jeff Peters, Vice President of Licensing and Retail at HBO. “There’s nothing quite like watching Ramin and his musical team bring the world of Game of Thrones to life right before your eyes.”
The tour, produced and promoted exclusively by Live Nation in partnership with HBO Licensing & Retail, will continue to use innovative music tour production and video technology that will recreate the various realms found throughout Westeros and Essos as well as showcase footage from the series in addition to new imagery created exclusively for the concert. The tour wrapped a successful journey across 20 European cities earlier this spring, drawing rave reviews from critics:
Ramin Djawadi’s previous credits include the Grammy-nominated score for Marvel’s 2008 blockbuster, Iron Man. Other film credits include A Wrinkle in Time, Pacific Rim, Slender Man, Clash Of The Titans and Warcraft. In addition to Game Of Thrones, Ramin also garnered Emmy Award nominations for other television projects including the hit HBO series Westworld, Flash Forward (ABC) and Prison Break (FOX).
Based on the bestselling fantasy book series by George R.R. Martin, Game of Thrones is an epic story of treachery and nobility set on the continent of Westeros, where summers and winters can last years, and only the lust for power is eternal. The Emmy®- and Golden Globe Award-winning series has captured the imagination of fans globally, making it one of the most popular shows on television.
