This must be hard for you. On one side the fact that you are searching for how to watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada means that you are either near the start of season 8 or that it already started. But on the other side, it means that this is the last time you will ever search for how to watch Game of Thrones because this is the final season and that’s it after that. 8 years of watching coming down to the last 6 episodes, and after that, well that’s it. No more.
Step 3 is the cheapest and best method if you want to watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada. The problem? The method doesn’t work in Canada and many other countries.
But we are here to help you watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada, and there is a way to do it, it just requires some right knowledge that we will share below.
To watch Game of Thrones Season 8 in Canada with HBO NOW, you need to trick HBO into thinking that you are in the US and that is pretty much it minus the fact you, of course, need to get an HBO Now subscription first.
To use HBO NOW in Canada, you need to use a VPN. A VPN allows you to virtually change your location allowing you to be in the US without being there, and thus to access HBO NOW or the likes of American Netflix.
Not all of the VPN services work with HBO though. That’s because the likes of HBO and other companies are aware that VPN services exist and need to make an effort to prevent them from working resulting in most VPN services providing servers without any benefit.
At PrivateVPN, we don’t provide the most servers on the market, but we do make sure our servers work with the entertainment platforms that you actually want to access whether that’s American Netflix, Hulu, or HBO NOW to watch Game of Thrones Season 8 in Canada.
By connecting to the right American server with PrivateVPN, you will be able to access HBO NOW. Our app should tell you what server works with what service depending on when you are reading this, but if it doesn’t just try them one by one, and you will find out pretty quickly.
That will allow you to watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada as far as the web browser is concerned, but if you would like to watch it on your phone or the Amazon Fire TV Stick, you still need to apply some more steps.
If you just search for HBO in the Apple App Store right now, it won’t show up.
The first thing you need to do is to sign out of your iCloud account followed by creating a new one with your location in the US.
Changing the location of your current account will get rid of everything you have so while you will be able to watch Game of Thrones Season 8 in Canada with that method, don’t do that.
Making a new account will allow you to keep your current things, and once you download HBO NOW, you can switch back to your other account.
On Android devices, you do the opposite of what you do on Apple devices.
You do indeed need to change your location on your current store.
That should allow you to download HBO NOW to watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada, but if it doesn’t then repeat force stopping and clearing data.
And that will allow you to watch Game of Thrones season 8 in Canada on the Amazon Fire devices.
Although, some people do have problems downloading it with that due to their cards being issued in Canada. If you have a problem with the actual download, first remove current methods of payment, and if that doesn’t work,
get a prepaid American card or even just a virtual card. Amazon isn’t too fussy about cards, unlike many other companies.
You wanted to know how to watch it, and now you know. But after you finish, that’s it, which is why we also have posted about how to watch American Netflix in Canada or about how to set up Hulu that we recommend you check out so that you can access more content than ever, if HBO NOW isn’t enough for you.
