Game of Thrones HBO

The Game of Thrones season 4 episode will be shown to eager fans at the Barclays Center in New York on March 20, two weeks prior to the April 6 HBO premiere date.

HBO will be inviting over 7,000 Game of Throne fans to watch the first episode of the fourth season in "The Epic Fan Experience" which will include a giant stadium-sized screen, costumes on display and a chance to take photos with the Iron Throne.

Tickets for the premiere were able for purchase at Ticketmaster for $15. However, the tickets sold out quickly – in just 30 minutes - disappointing thousands of fans who had hoped to get tickets. All proceeds will go to charity. 

Some fans who were able to purchase tickets took to eBay to sell the tickets. Some seats are selling for $80 and some going for over $1000.

"HBO Game of Thrones: The Epic Fan Experience" will take place at 6 p.m. ET on Mar. 20, 2014.

The new season will see the introduction of new characters Obertyn Martell and the Red Viper.

Prior to the premiere, date, HBO released the episode titles of the first four installments.

The title for episode 1 is "Two Swords", episode 2 is "The Lion and the Flower", episode 3 is "Breaker of Chains" and episode 4 is "Oathkeeper."

Episode 1 "Two Swords" hints at the relationship between Jaime and Brienne.

Episode 2 "The Lion and the Rose" hints at the young king's wedding to Margaery.

Episode 3 "Breaker of Chains" may see Jaime help his brother Tyrion escape from prison after he is accused of killing Joffrey.

Episode 4 "Oathkeeper" will likely to refer to the oaths made earlier in the season and in season 3.

The fourth season of the popular fantasy series will be premiering on HBO at 9p.m. ET on April 6, 2014.

Game of Thrones is an American fantasy drama TV series based on an adaptation of the fantasy novels "A Snog of Ice and Fire" by George R. R. Martin.
