HBO has brought some of its biggest shows to London in a special free experience ahead the broadcaster’s UK streaming app launch.
HBO Max will finally be available to viewers in the UK and Ireland tomorrow, with much-loved hits like House of the Dragon and The White Lotus, as well as new series such as The Pitt.
To celebrate the occasion, the US entertainment giant Warner Bros Discovery – which owns HBO – has brought to life over 15 popular TV shows and movies.
These include The White Lotus, Sex and The City, House of the Dragon, Harry Potter and Superman’s Fortress of Solitude.
The experience is free but will only be open at London’s Piccadilly Circus for a limited time, today and tomorrow.
Visitors begin by stepping into The White Lotus hotel, before taking a seat at Carrie Bradshaw’s iconic apartment desk from Sex and the City.
