"We are delighted to be able to brighten up this January day for you all by confirming that Game of Thrones Star, Tom Wlaschiha aka Jaqen H'ghar from the hit HBO series will be joining us at www.thronefest.co.uk on Sunday 20th May!

"Tom will be flying in from Germany to compliment our already-fantastic celebrity line-up at the event.

"So much going on - do not miss this event!"

It is set to have a whole range of activities including props from the TV set for people to see, re-enactments of the best battle scenes, a dragon and an Iron Throne to sit on.

The festival was originally planned to be in Herne Bay, but organisers could not find a venue big enough.
