Fans of 'Game of Thrones' are delighted that their wait for the return of the fifth season of the medieval fantasy epic television drama is drawing closer. Another three months' wait and all the sword-wielding, continuous threatening, and doubtful romancing, will launch onto television screens.

While fans in the U.K can watch the premiere of an entire new chapter of the show on Sky Atlantic on April 13, those in the United States can continue to enjoy their favorite show by tuning to HBO on April 12.

On that note, CNET has suggested that fans of the show, which is based on the bestselling novels of author George R. R. Martin, should refresh the whole lot by watching all the previous four seasons 'Game of Thrones' on the online service prior to the premiere of Season 5.

Christian Today suggests that even as the European fans of the show are at leisure, they can opt for a trip to London, Stockholm, Tel Aviv, Madrid, Berlin, Amsterdam or Paris by February to watch a novel 'Game of Thrones' exhibition. The exhibition will display as many as 70 original artifacts from the sets of the popular show. In fact, chances are good that the fans will catch a few spoilers of Season 5 while passing through the exhibition halls.

On the other hand, 'Game of Thrones' fans in the U.S can gear up for winter by watching two episodes from the show's Season 4 on a much larger screen, an IMAX. In fact, 150 theaters across the U.S will screen the the penultimate and finale episode of 'Game of Thrones' Season 4 from Jan. 23 to 29.
