Before the Twilight movies became a global phenomenon, the high-school vampire romance started as a 2005 book written by author Stephenie Meyer. Twenty years later, fans can celebrate the love story’s anniversary with a string of events taking place September through November, including a theatrical re-release of all five films in the franchise, special editions of the original books, and even a Forever Twilight in Forks festival happening in Forks, Washington. There’s also Twilight in Concert, a national tour featuring a screening of the first 2008 film and live performance by a 12-piece ensemble of Oscar-nominated composer Carter Burwell’s soundtrack, illuminated by 1,000 candles on stage.
