Twilight in Concert: A Candlelit Celebration of the Saga That Sparked a Generation

Dust off your Team Edward or Team Jacob T-shirt—Twilight in Concert is coming to DC. As the beloved Twilight novel celebrates its 20th anniversary, the iconic love story that launched a global phenomenon is getting a spectacular musical twist. For two nights only, October 24 and 25, 2025, The National Theatre will be bathed in candlelight and filled with sights and sounds of Twilight like you’ve probably never experienced it before.

Presented by vGEA Live and Broadway at the National, in association with Lionsgate, Twilight in Concert is part of a 60-city national tour offering fans an immersive evening. The original 2008 film will be projected in its entirety on a massive cinema screen while a 12-piece rock and orchestral ensemble performs the movie’s haunting score live on stage. The result? A dazzling cinematic concert experience that brings Bella and Edward’s world to life in an unforgettable new way.

The National Theatre will be transformed into a magical haven for Twilight devotees and music lovers alike. Imagine reliving that unforgettable first glance in the cafeteria, the iconic baseball scene, or Edward’s heroic rescue in Port Angeles—all accompanied by live music under the warm glow of more than a thousand flickering candles. Whether you’re reliving your teenage obsession or discovering the saga for the first time, the ambiance promises an evening soaked in romance, nostalgia… and perhaps a little bit of vampire magic.
