Historically, Game of Thrones parties can get pretty wild (Photo: showrunner David Benioff reacts to wife Amanda Peet kissing former cast member Pedro Pascal at 2015 Emmy Awards)
Game of Thrones production is winding down in Belfast, as June is likely when it all ends. Indeed: the end is nigh! But don’t worry: it’s good news; it means we’re closer to season eight… the last season of Game of Thrones ever. Okay, maybe it’s a bit bittersweet.
I’m sure that will be the general feeling tonight—lots of laughter and tears— as the cast joins in Belfast for a party before, soon enough, everyone has to go their separate ways. Some cast members have already been sighted in the city, and more are on the way!
Throughout the day (and yesterday), a number of cast members were sighted in Belfast: Emilia Clarke (Daenerys Targaryen), Kit Harington (Jon Snow), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister), Nikolaj Coster Waldau (Jaime Lannister), Isaac Hempstead Wright (Bran Stark), John Bradley (Samwell Tarly), and Hafþór Björnsson (Gregor Clegane).

That’s it! But only for now. Though the party will undoubtedly be a private affair, I’m sure by tomorrow we’ll have more photos of the cast in Belfast, hopefully all of them together.
We don’t technically know whether tonight’s party marks the official end of production or if filming will continue for the rest of June. Some cast members have definitely wrapped: according to Insider, Joe Dempsie and Hannah Murray finished weeks ago (likely alongside Sophie Turner, in Seville), but it seems unlikely that they’re all done, as the King’s Landing shoot is still very much active and showing no signs of slowing down. In either case, the end is nearly here and the cast wanted to celebrate before it arrived!
