Los Angeles, CA June 18, 2010 – In celebration of the lunar eclipse on the evening of June 26th, Summit Entertainment is inviting everyone across the nation to “TWILIGHT Night,” a 12-city event including outdoor screenings of TWILIGHT and THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON. The family and community-oriented events are the perfect chance for those new to the film franchise as well as moviegoers in general to immerse themselves in THE TWILIGHT SAGA phenomenon just in time for the highly anticipated theatrical release of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE, the third installment of Summit Entertainment’s TWILIGHT SAGA film franchise, on June 30th.

The excitement of THE TWILIGHT SAGA will be delivered directly to fans in their hometowns and online with “TWILIGHT Night” special events. Moviefone will live-stream events from Philadelphia and San Diego at www.moviefone.com/twilightnight which will include interviews with cast, fan reactions, special guests and sneak peeks of THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE, allowing those unable to attend to still take part in the celebration. In addition, each event will include special cast member appearances as well as engaging activities to be enjoyed prior to the outdoor evening film screenings, including a red carpet and photo booth, both provided by Moviefone.

Ok, here is what we know so far as to lining up for the Eclipse Premiere in LA.

The official date & time fans can start camping to see the THE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE red carpet premiere is Monday, June 21 at 6am PT. The premiere this year is being held in the Nokia Theater at LA Live in Los Angeles. As to whether people can camp out any EARLIER than June 21 at 6am PT, the answer is no.

Here is what Summit has said about that:

Allow me to clarify, and sorry if there was any miscommunication before – LA Live is not public property, and will not allow camping before that date/time. You also can not camp on the streets around LA Live.

Thank you for understanding, and we hope you’re just as excited about the event as we are!

They have also told us there will be more information next week.

I just received the poster shown above in an e-mail from Summit. Soooooo…..go check out Letters To Juliet from Eclipse yumminess on the Big Screen!
