The premier of HBO’s “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” is just around the corner, and author George R.R. Martin made an exciting announcement about it. To promote the series, they just launched a contest to “Knight” a fan and bring them to the Los Angeles premiere of the new series.

“I’m searching for modern day knights,” Martin said. “Inspired by our hero Ser Duncan the Tall. Do you know someone who lives by the Knightly ideals — honor, courage, self-sacrifice? Nominate them, no armor required. Make a quick video telling us why they deserve it. Or even better, show them in action. Who knows? I might just Knight them at our premiere.”
To enter, fans must nominate someone they know that exemplifies courage, valor, honor, and sacrifice. Entrants have to use the hashtag #KnightChallenge on TikTok, and tag their nominee.
The lucky winner will receive a trip to attend HBO’s LA Fan Premiere of “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms.” There they will be knighted by the “A Song of Ice and Fire” author.
The contest ends at noon on January 2nd, 2026. You can learn more about contest rules and restrictions here. “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” hits HBO January 18th, 2026. It has already been renewed for a second season. Check out the trailer below:
