With all the speculation and rumors going around, Summit has finally made it official and confirmed the premiere date and location for the LA Premiere on the Twilight Twitter:

“The Breaking Dawn Part 1 World Premiere will be at the Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE on 11/14! Will you be there?”

This is great news for those of us who would like to attend and want to start planning, but there is also some more information that is quite interesting. Creation Entertainment has also made an announcement on their site about a Twilight Convention that could be happening before the premiere in LA.

Los Angeles, CA
4-Nov-11 – HOLD THIS DATE FOR AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT RE: THE TWILIGHT SAGA!

I briefly spoke to one of the reps for Creation to clarify and he explained to me that just like with Eclipse, there is supposed to be a Twilight Convention in LA to help promote the film. The weekend being looked at right now is November 4th and more details should come out some time this week.

At first I was positive that I would be attending the premiere, but with the convention being held earlier, it might be nice to go to that instead. I would love to go to both, but I do not think that would be possible, so it seems I will just have to wait and see which seems more promising. Camping out for days on the streets of LA for the premiere seems like a once in a lifetime experience, but if the convention is anything like the Eclipse one, then it would be fun to attend that. What about you ladies? Is anyone planning to attend the premiere or the convention when it is announced?

Tamra Day admits she was a latecomer to “Twilight” mania.

Stephenie Meyer’s hugely successful series of books — and the movie adaptations — about the love affair between a human young woman and her vampire boyfriend have been unavoidable the past few years, but Day didn’t get hooked until January.

“I live in a cave,” jokes the 51-year-old retiree, who, in fact, lives in Salem.

But once Meyer’s characters got their fangs into her, Day joined the masses of fans who love the books — “Twilight,” “New Moon,” “Eclipse” and “Breaking Dawn” — about human heroine Bella Swan and how she comes to choose between Edward Cullen, her dreamy bloodsucking beau, and Jacob Black, the Native American hunk who turns into a werewolf.

“I’m here,” Day says, “because I’m addicted to ‘Twilight.’”
Love of all things “Twilight” was the reason the first wave of fans were gathering to register Friday afternoon, at the Official Twilight Convention. The event, presented by veteran fan convention company Creation Entertainment, continues through Sunday at the Hilton Portland and Executive Tower downtown.

Sunday was bright and beautiful, but inside the twists and turns of the Westin Convention Centre, 500 girls and women hardly cared. When pursuing love with a vampire, sunlight is an easy sacrifice.

This weekend was the Toronto stop of the touring Twilight Convention, a gathering for fans of Stephenie Meyer’s rabidly popular tale.

Almost 100 million copies of the four-novel series have been sold, and three movies have been made about the teenager Bella Swan and her romances with the vampire Edward Cullen and werewolf Jacob Black. A fourth film is set to be released in 2011.

“I cannot wait for Breaking Dawn,” said Santyna Brar, 14, who attended the entire three-day convention with her cousin, Sonali Kumar, 15.

Peter Facinelli was the star of the day at the Twi Tour Convention in Phoenix today. Peter started the karaoke session off with a quick rendition of “We are the World”, and then danced with the crowd to Candace Charee singing her song “Comin’ to Getcha”.

Here’s some notable comments caught by Twilight Examiner:

* Taylor Lautner’s favorite and most difficult scene to film in the Twilight series was the wall scene from New Moon.
* Kristen Stewart was starstruck by meeting Kate Winslet at the Academy Awards and says that it was an awkward experience.
* Taylor Lautner thinks that Eclipse is far and away the best book and film in the Twilight Saga.
* Kristen Stewart’s favorite scene with Charlie in Eclipse is when she looks over his shoulder to see the missing Riley and must confront the fact that it may be that way for him.
* Robert Pattinson is most annoyed by the question “what kind of pranks occurred on-set” because he says he was working and pranks were rare if any.
* Taylor Lautner’s favorite characteristics about Jacob are his warmth, his loyalty to Bella, and his persistence.
* If Kristen Stewart could give Bella advice, she’d tell her to be more honest with the people she cares about.
* Robert Pattinson’s most exhausting day on-set was when they were filming fight training to prepare for the big battle.
* If Taylor Lautner had sixty seconds to grab anything from his burning home, he’d grab his laptop because “there is a lot of stuff on that thing,” but then he also wonders “wait, shouldn’t I grab my mother or something?”
* What Robert Pattinson will take away from the Twilight Saga fans is the fact that there are still a group of people who “desperately want to keep romance alive” even in such a “cynical” place.

People desperately wanting to keep romance alive!???Guess he means us!

Thanks to MammaDawg for sharing her incredible experience at the Phoenix TwiTour with CBA. She is a volunteer with the con so she has lots of fun stories to tell! When you read her report you can see all the work the volunteer’s go through to help put on these fabulous con’s for all of us but it also has it’s rewards. Her report is broken into 4 parts:

1. From Green Room to Backstage
2. Flirting & Feeding
3. A Waltz with Gil at the Vampire Ball
4. The Wolf Pack, Saving Some Sexy for Me

After everyone reads her report I can see a stampede to Creation Entertainment’s volunteer sign ups LOL! Also, Creation Entertainment, who puts on the TwiTour’s is now partnered with Summit Entertainment, so their con’s are the “Official Twilight Conventions.” To see their schedule click HERE.

From The Hub Productions:

Unfortunately, due to an extension of the filming schedule of Eclipse, Kellan Lutz will not be able to attend the Twilight Tour in Brisbane and Sydney. He sends his regrets and is looking forward to returning to Australia in the near future and seeing you all soon. We are very pleased, however, to welcome Christopher Heyerdahl who portrays Marcus of the Volturi, at his first ever Twilight appearance.
