As fall rolls around every year, Twihards go to social media to declare that “Twilight Season” has begun. What better way to celebrate than to watch the film with other superfans and live music.
Shows have and will continue around North America, Asia and the United Kingdom. Dates and locations can be found on the “Twilight in Concert” website.

“I made sure to cheer loudly for my side,” Alvarado said.
