There's a Real-Life Game of Thrones Night's Watch Training Camp (Here's How To Get Tickets)

Game of Thrones has launched the closest chance us mere mortals will ever have at being a part of the Westeros gang with the opportunity to join the Night's Watch.

If you fancy yourself as the next Jon Snow, there's going to be a real-life Night's Watch training camp where you can learn exactly what it's like there – hopefully without all the bloodshed – and check out the pros in action with demonstrations by the show's stunt team

There will be tutorials on how to sword fight, target shoot and handle ravens, just in case you ever find yourself in Westeros.

The Night's Watch Training Day is taking place on Saturday, May 20 in two sessions, morning and night.

To take part, all you have to do is fill out a Training Day questionnaire for a chance to enter thanks to Sky Atlantic.

Attendance is by ballot only and future Night's Watchers will be selected each weekday until May 17, so there's plenty of chances.

But the fun doesn't end there – there's also a Night's Watch-themed quiz, which consists of ten timed questions with points allocated based on how quick the responses are.

Ahead of the penultimate season of the Emmy-winning fantasy series, it's emerged that there's going to be FOUR spinoffs to keep everyone happy once the main show wraps up.

Game of Thrones season 7 premieres on Sunday, July 16 at 9pm ET on HBO in the US, and simultaneously at 2am on Monday, July 17 on Sky Atlantic in the UK.
