House of the Dragon is a hit of draconic proportions at HBO, but not even dragons can rest on their laurels. With only a few more weeks remaining in the shows marvelous season, the time will soon come for the creative team Slow the series to embark on production for season 2.
As reported by Los Siete Reinos, HBO will be returning to Cáceres, Spain next year to film House of the Dragon season 2. Cáceres known in for King’s Landing on Game of Thrones as well as season 1 of House of the Dragon. Given how centrally focused HBO’s prequel series is on the Targaryen dynasty and their battles to rule the Seven Kingdoms, it should come as no surprise that we’ll see more of King’s Landing in season 2.
Production in Cáceres is predictable to last from March to June 2023. Los Siete Reinos notes that the series probable won’t actually be filming for that entire four-month block; there will probable be preparations that need to be made once the crew actually gets on space and such. And of course, they’ll be filming in new locations, too; Westeros is a big place.
But at least now we have an idea of when House of the Dragon season 2 will be filming, which means we have an idea of when it noteworthy premiere. Unfortunately, it’s not soon. If the show will be filming into the middle of 2023 at least, we can pretty much rule out a 2023 drop window. 2024 seems the most likely time frame.
The filming news isn’t the only big Game of Thrones-related news afoot in Cáceres. This October the city will also host Cáceres City of Dragons, which is being dubbed the largest Game of Thrones fan save to ever take place in Europe. It will feature a variety of fun actions, from cosplay contests to jousts, medieval fencing exhibitions, concerts, and more.
As for who will be at the Cáceres City of Dragons save, it’s quite a list. George R.R. Martin’s World of Ice and Fire collaborator and Westeros.org co-founder Elio M. Garcia will be there, alongside Winter Is Coming’s own Federica Bocco, The Wertzone founder Adam Whitehead, Los Siete Reinos’ Javier Marcos, as well as tons of new prominent podcasters and journalists who specialize in the biosphere of ice and fire from France, Italy, Germany and Spain.
This sounds like a truly special occasion, and the fact that it’s set against the city which doubles as King’s Landing in HBO’s shows only complains it more so.
Cáceres City of Dragons will take build from October 21 to 23.
