The Linen Mill Studios tour includes fully-dressed sets, costumes, imagery and original props and weaponry from the Game of Thrones universe—including King's Landing, Braavos, Dorne and Dragonfell—which have been rebuilt and restored by the same construction crews and artists who worked on the Emmy award-winning show.

Julain Moon, head of EAMA Warner Bros. Consumer Products said: “What an incredible honour to be opening the doors today to the first-ever Game of Thrones Studio Tour. This marks a first for Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment to launch a world-class attraction in Northern Ireland where fans can explore, up close and personal, a vast array of authentic sets, as well as a comprehensive collection of costumes, props, set pieces, and so much more.”
