Game of Thrones fanatics in Northern California who want to sit on the “Iron Throne” might want to plan a trip to San Francisco.

A pop-up store at the AT&T West Coast Flagship Store located at 1 Powell St. in San Francisco has opened a new “Game of Thrones” experience based on the world of Westeros, according to NBC Bay Area.

The exhibit features props from the HBO hit series: a replica “Iron Throne,” the “Night King” on the second floor and a map of the seven kingdoms, which activates interactive White Walkers on a video screen above, according to NBC Bay Area. The store will be adding additional props in the next few weeks.

AT&T is using the props to promote its flagship store, according to SFGate.com. The company is closing on a $85 billion takeover of Time Warner, HBO’s parent company.

The store has a public “Game of Thrones” costume party from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Aug. 19.
