Last week, we reported that the cast and crew of Game of Thrones Season 6 held a wrap party at the Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Per Belfast Live, the party cost a cool £80,000 to throw (around $118,686). “Everybody was very well looked after,” a source told the publication. “Anybody involved in the series was invited along, and they were given jackets as keepsakes.”

That jacket will shield you from the cold in style.
SPOILERS AHEAD
Apparently “anybody” included cast members whose character may or may not have been killed in the fifth season finale. Kit Harington was there, is what I’m saying, at least if these images from the party can be believed.

And here are a couple of closer shots—look behind the revelers in the foreground at the gentleman in the background, the one wearing glasses and a white sweater.
These images jibe with another report that Harington was indeed in attendance, and were originally posted to the Facebook account of a Game of Thrones stagehand. A few people have questioned whether these images might be the work of a Photoshop artist, but I doubt it. The person who uploaded them has previously posted pictures of himself with the likes of Liam Cunningham, Gwendoline Christie, and Iwan Rheon, and I don’t see much reason to doubt his access to the wrap party.
Anyway, at this point it doesn’t particularly matter. Whether Harington was there or not, all the spoilers from the off-season more or less guarantee that we’ll see Jon Snow again in Season 6. And even in the unlikely event that those spoilers turn out to be an elaborate ruse, it’s not hard to believe that Harington would be invited to the wrap party anyway. He was heavily involved with the production for five years, after all.
