If you can't make it to Westeros, bring Westeros to you.
HBO and Facebook are partnering to bring the red carpet season 4 premiere of Game of Thrones to fans via live stream.
The premiere, being held on March 18 at Lincoln Center in New York City, will be streamed on Facebook Live. Fans can ask questions on the show's Instagram or Facebook pages and have them answered by cast members like Peter Dinklage (Tyrion Lannister), Jack Gleeson (Joffrey Baratheon), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) and Sophie Turner (Sansa Stark), among others.
“The fans have made Game of Thrones a global phenomenon, so we wanted to give them an opportunity to be a part of the excitement on red carpet premiere night,” Sabrina Caluori, HBO's vice president of digital and social media tells Mashable. “By partnering with Facebook we're able to reach a huge global fan base beyond the nearly 10 million that are already connected to the Game of Thrones Facebook page."
