"Twilight" fans, unite. Philadelphia will be the place to be this fall as a 12-piece orchestra performs the soundtrack from the 2008 cult vampire classic live alongside a screening of the movie.

A 60-city "Twilight" in-concert tour will kick off in September in Washington state, where the movie is set. It will stop at the Met Philadelphia, 858 N. Broad St., on Saturday, Nov. 22, at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets went on sale on Friday, April 11.

According to a PhillyVoice report, this event marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Stephenie Meyer's book "Twilight." The performance will include more than 1,000 candles lighting up the stage to create an even more mysterious ambiance.

The live "Twilight" performance will cover only the first in the five-film sequence. When it debuted, the film made $3.3 billion during the 2010s. The "Twilight" series revolves around high schooler Bella Swan, who falls in love with vampire Edward Cullen. 

In 2020, Meyer revisited her epic work and released "Midnight Sun," a companion novel told from Cullen's perspective. The novel is being adapted for a Netflix series.
