While fans eagerly await the epic eighth and final season of HBO's Emmy Award-winning series Game of Thrones in 2019, Major League Baseball and HBO announced a renewal of their partnership to bring specially customised GoT events, giveaways, ticket specials and experiences to participating MLB ballparks in the US this summer.



Last summer, in conjunction with the seventh season of GoT, the partnership engaged thousands of fans across more than 20 MLB ballparks through a variety of creative cross-promotional activations designed by the participating Clubs, HBO, MLB and MLB's official licensees.

Some of those fan-friendly specials integrating iconic themes known to millions included: MLB player and mascot bobble-heads, video board games, special food and drinks at concession stands, co-branded t-shirts and caps, GoT costume contests, Snapchat filters and the appearance of the Iron Throne.

Details for participating clubs and *** the experiences offered for 2018 will be announced at a later date.
