Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide - it's actually happening.

Okay, take a deep breath, everyone.

As part of the annual Ideas At The House program in November, Sydney Opera House has just announced that George R. R. Martin — the bearded brains behind A Song of Ice and Fire, which was adapted to a little show called Game Of Freaking Thrones — is coming Down Under to say things like this to you:

And he’s bringing Emmy Award-winning Peter Dinklage — aka Tyrion Lannister — with him. CALM DOWN.

The ‘In Conversation’ event is being presented in collaboration with the Supanova Pop Culture Expo, which means the pair will be heading to Brisbane and Adelaide too, and WILL YOU JUST SETTLE, I AM TRYING TO TYPE.

No exact dates for Brisbane and Adelaide, and nothing’s been announced for Melbourne or Perth or anywhere else yet, either. This is all the information we have so far — stay tuned for more.
