TWILIGHT CONVENTION NEW JERSEY: THIS WEEKEND: UPDATE!

Twilight Convention Due to the shooting of Eclipse we’ve had a great number of guest cancellations and changes for this particular convention.

No one, least of all us, likes guest changes but the fact is that all convention contracts allow for guest cancellations if movie work occurs and of course this has been indicated from the start at our site.

We’ve ended up with a final schedule of seven great guest stars (including the Award Winning Director of Twilight) and we have a wonderful weekend planned filled with celebrities, events, contests, parties, music, videos, autographs, photo ops, and surprises.
When this has happened at other previous tour stops the attendees all had an awesome time! If you have separate autograph or photo op tickets for any of the guests that cancelled you can use them as cash at the convention for other tickets, photo ops, autograph tickets, or Creation produced Twilight souvenirs at the convention.
You can also return your separate autograph tickets and photo op tickets for a full refund to Creation, 217 South Kenwood, Glendale, CA 91205 Attention: Ed.

AS AN EXTRA BONUS, ALL OF OUR GOLD AND PREFERRED WEEKEND PATRONS WILL RECEIVE A FREE HAND SIGNED AUTOGRAPHED PHOTO FROM ONE OF THE STARS WHO COULD NOT ATTEND, YOURS FIRST COME, FIRST CHOICE! YOU GET THIS WHEN YOU FIRST COME TO REGISTRATION.
So, our gold and preferred weekend patrons will end up with EIGHT in-person autographs as well as the fun of the convention!

The final guest list includes:
CATHERINE HARDWICKE (Director of Twilight, appearing Friday)

EDI GATHEGI (Laurent, appearing Saturday and Sunday)

GIL BIRMINGHAM (Billy Black, appearing Friday and Saturday). Gil is also appearing in concert at our Friday night performance.

ALEX MERAZ (The Wolf Pack’s Paul, appearing Saturday and Sunday)

JUSTIN CHON (Eric Yorkie, appearing Sunday)

KIOWA GORDON (Embry Call of The Wolf Pack, appearing Saturday and Sunday)

CHASKE SPENCER (The Wolf Pack’s Sam Uley)

The Twilighters (appearing Friday Evening at the concert)

The Hillywood Show (Hosting throughout the weekend)

For those wondering who pulled out, it looks both Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene had to cancel.  While I’m sure fans will be disappointed, I hope they understand that in order for the shooting of Eclipse to stay on schedule, they had to pull out.

Summit Entertainment and Creation Entertainment to Produce the

Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions

Los Angeles, CA  August 17, 2009 – Summit Entertainment and Creation Entertainment today announced a partnership to produce a series of Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions over the next three years.

The unprecedented success of both the Twilight novels by Stephenie Meyer and the feature film adaptation of the first book has created a worldwide following of passionate fans who are eagerly awaiting the release of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON, the second movie in Summit’s TWILIGHT film franchise, which will be released theatrically in North America on November 20, 2009.

The Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions will offer attendees the unique opportunity to involve themselves in all aspects of THE TWILIGHT SAGA.  The weekend gatherings will feature on-stage appearances by TWILIGHT celebrities, exclusive footage screenings, panel discussions, TWILIGHT themed parties, musical performances, costume and trivia competitions, auctions, autographing, merchandising, and photo opportunities.  The major online TWILIGHT fan websites, including www.twilightlexicon.com and www.twilightMOMS.com, will be participating with special presentations at stops on the convention tour.

Erin Ferries, VP of Creation Entertainment, said, “It is a delight to be involved with the tremendous excitement that surrounds THE TWILIGHT SAGA.  The fans are incredibly knowledgeable about the property and have used the story as a springboard for their own creativity.  The Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions will allow attendees the chance to show off their TWILIGHT inspired artwork, writing, costumes, filmmaking, and music with thousands of their fellow fans.  While the conventions will offer fans the chance to cheer for their favorite actors they are equally about gathering with like-minded folks and forming friendships based on a common devotion.  We can’t wait to bring some of the magic of TWILIGHT live to cities around the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom!”

“The fans of THE TWILIGHT SAGA continue to be incredibly supportive of the film franchise and we wanted to find a way to allow them to immerse themselves in the films and the characters in a much more interactive setting,” said Nancy Kirkpatrick, President of Worldwide Marketing of Summit Entertainment.  “The Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions will offer incredible opportunities to get up close to the characters which they have grown to love.”

Official TWILIGHT Fan Conventions around the country with more then 20 stops have already been announced including New Jersey, Chicago, Miami, Seattle, Nashville, San Francisco, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Arlington, Charlotte, Minneapolis, Phoenix, Boston, Toronto and Portland.
