Game of Thrones will end this year, but Westeros will not be gone.

Starting in 2020, fans of the series and the books will have an opportunity to visit Winterfell and sit on the Iron Throne, courtesy of a new studio tour.

The Game of Thrones Studio Tour will be a 110,000-square-foot tourist attraction at Linen Mill Studios in Northern Ireland, and is the first in a series of legacy projects that HBO announced last year.

According to HBO, “the tour will bring visitors face-to-face with original set pieces, costumes, props, and weapons used to create the worlds of Westeros and Essos. Featuring a compelling mix of behind-the scenes insights, interactive elements, and expansive, fully dressed sets, visitors will wander in the very footsteps of Westeros’s most prominent residents, re-living key moments from the series and standing right where they took place.”

Fans will have to wait a while to visit the fantasy world as the tour will only open in Spring 2020, but at least we know that winter is coming.
