Brief Explanation

In January 2016, the Game of Thrones filming location, and 400-year-old Northern Irish tourist attraction The Dark Hedges, was hit hard by Storm Gertrude. Amidst the devastation, one thing remained. Wood. And lots of it. Over ten weeks, we transformed the trees that fell that day into 10 beautifully carved, bespoke doors, depicting episodes from Game of Thrones season 6. Each week a new door was installed at the beating heart of a Northern Irish community – the local pub of a Game of Thrones filming location. Together, the doors now form a pub-crawl through season 6 that spans the length and breadth of the country. What began as a tragedy is now a worldwide celebration of Northern Ireland’s links with the most popular TV show of all time. A permanent fixture embedded in Northern Irish Culture.
