PHOENIX — Fans of the hit series “Game of Thrones” will have a chance to experience Westeros in person next year when concert featuring music from the show returns to the Valley.

The “Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience” was scheduled to hit the stage at Gila River Arena in Glendale on Sept. 12, 2018.

The show made a stop at Talking Stick Resort Arena earlier this year.

The event will be hosted by composer Ramin Djwadi, the mastermind behind the show’s soundtrack.

Tickets for the show were available through an HBO presale on Tuesday. Several other presales will also be available throughout the week.

The general public will be able to purchase tickets on Friday.

Prices started at $34. The most expensive seats and packages topped out near the $500 mark.

The show is massively popular. Last month’s season finale drew in a record 12.1 million viewers, while at least 4 million more streamed it online.

This most recent season of “Game of Thrones” has regularly ranked as the second-most-viewed series each week among all programs, both cable and broadcast.

Its eighth and final season is scheduled to broadcast next year.
