Kristian Nairn is a Northern Irish actor and DJ. He is best known for fan favorite Hodor on HBO's Game of Thrones.
His portrayal of the gentle-hearted Winterfell stable boy, largely
through the use of skillful body language, has cemented his status as
one of the best-loved stars of the show.

signature blend of progressive house to sellout venues worldwide. He has
performed alongside such acts as the Scissor Sisters and Calvin Harris,
and has a residency at Irish club The Kremlin. Kristian recently
completed a well-reviewed DJ tour across North America and Europe, which

"Hodor!"
said Marc Nathan, promoter of the Baltimore Comic-Con. "Seriously
though, when we heard Kristian was a possibility, we were very excited.
His portrayal of a supporting character in the sweeping Game of Thrones
epic has been so utterly memorable that he has clearly made Hodor one of
the show's stars, and fans of the show and of Kristian in particular
recognize his amazing dramatic abilities. We're truly privileged to have
him join us in 2016, and his fans are going to love it!"
