Game of Thrones fans can sit in The Iron Throne when it comes to Glasgow during UK tour

The final season of Game of Thrones is edging closer - and to celebrate there's a special surprise in store for Glaswegians.

Fans of the HBO hit will have the chance to sit in the famous Iron Throne, as it stops in Glasgow during a UK and Ireland tour in April.

Ever dreamed of parking your derrière in the hotly-contested seat while enjoying a serious power trip? Well during Sky's Seven Kingdoms Tour, you can do just that.

You'll be following in the footsteps of Aegon the Conqueror, kings Robert, Joffrey and Tommen, and Queen Cersei to take their place on the coveted throne.

The Iron Throne, which features in the multi award-winning programme, based on George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire book series, will be at Intu Braehead all day April 7-8.

You will have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be pictured in The North Kingdom's version of the throne.

Sky’s Director of Programmes Zai Bennett said: “With one of the greatest shows of television’s golden era coming to its end, we wanted to give fans something special to remember it by.

"The 7 Kingdoms Tour will do just that with fans getting the chance to experience what it feels like to sit on the Iron Throne before the eventual crowning moment at the end of the season.”

The final series of Game of Thrones starts on Sky Atlantic from Monday 15 April.
