Game of Thrones® Series 7
HBO’s Game of Thrones® has won critical acclaim. Many will recognise Northern Ireland as the setting for some of the show’s most iconic scenes. Hugo & Cat worked with Tourism Ireland to create a digital tapestry depicting series 1 to 7 – so that fans could explore the intricate plot and deep dive into the filming locations.
80m ‘Bayeux-style’ tapestry
For the launch of the highly anticipated Series 7, Tourism Ireland commissioned a giant 80m Game of Thrones® ‘Bayeux-style’ tapestry featuring “the story so far”. Made in Northern Ireland by local craftsmen using local materials, it is now an exhibit at the Ulster Museum. It's simply a ‘must see’ for Game of Thrones® fans.
