Teesside University’s Student Union was transformed into a Rave of Thrones when a star from the hit TV show Game of Thrones played a DJ set to 800 students.
On Friday night, Game of Thrones actor Kristian Nairn performed to a packed Student’s Union at Teesside University on Southfield Road Middlesbrough.
Many of the audience had arrived in full fantasy costume to hear the hour-long DJ set of progressive and deep house music from the Northern Irish actor who is best known for playing Hodor in the HBO fantasy series.
Standing at 6’10”, the same physique that made 39-year-old Nairn the perfect choice for the powerful stableman Hodor, also made him an awesome presence on stage.
Will Ridley, president of the Student’s Union said: “As well as playing Hodor in Game of Thrones, Kristian is an internationally renowned DJ.
“He’s performed all over the world - everywhere from Miami to some of the big venues in Europe - he’s moving onto Ireland next.
“Friday was a really busy night. We had a good seven or eight hundred students in the union.
“There was a lot of excitement about the place and a lot of people turned up dressed as their favourite Game of Thrones characters.
“He played an hour-long set and afterwards he did a bit of a meet and greet with some of the fans.
“One thing you can’t miss about him is that he’s absolutely huge. He had a massive presence on stage.
“He even threw the Game of Thrones theme music into his set which set everybody off - it was a bit of a crowd pleaser.”
