THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON IN Concert to Launch UK Tour with Live Rock and Orchestral Ensemble
The Lionsgate and GEA Live production will kick off at London's Eventim Apollo, following sold-out TWILIGHT IN CONCERT shows.
The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Concert, the next installment in the live-to-film concert series. Following the breakout success of Twilight in Concert last fall, this new event debuts the saga's most emotional chapter starting in the U.K. The tour kicks off at London's Eventim Apollo on February 7, 2027 with additional stops planned across England and Scotland.
Lionsgate and Eventim Apollo pre-sale start today at 4 p.m. and tickets go on general sale June 11 at 10 a.m. BST. For tickets, tour dates, and more information visit www.twilightnewmooninconcert.com.
The new live-to-film production features a 12-piece ensemble of rock and orchestral musicians performing the film's powerful score on stage, live and in sync with the full movie on a massive cinema screen, transforming The Twilight Saga: New Moon into a shared, immersive experience for fans. From quiet, fragile moments to sweeping, unforgettable highs, The Twilight Saga: New Moon in Concert amplifies the film's emotional intensity through live music and cinematic scale.
"The response to Twilight in Concert was immediate and passionate, and made it clear that fans wanted more," says Floris Douwes, Producer and Managing Director at GEA Live. "The Twilight Saga: New Moon takes everything to another level. It's more emotional, more intense, and when you experience Bella's story with live music, those moments hit in a completely different way."
"The Twilight Saga: New Moon is where Bella Swan's journey begins to truly expand into two different worlds." says Kirsten Taylor-Hall, Vice President of Global Live & Location-Based Entertainment at Lionsgate. "It deepens the emotional story while introducing new characters and mythology that became central to the franchise. Experiencing this chapter in this live format gives fans a new connection to the story."
The original score for The Twilight Saga: New Moon was composed by Academy Award winner Alexandre Desplat (Music (Original Score), The Grand Budapest Hotel, 2014), whose work with the London Symphony Orchestra for the film brings a rich, cinematic intensity to its romance, heartbreak, and supernatural tension. Taking over from Carter Burwell, who scored the original Twilight, Desplat introduced fan-favorite tracks including "New Moon (The Meadow)," "Bella Dreams," and "Werewolves" that have become a defining part of the saga's musical legacy.

About The Twilight Saga: New Moon
In the second chapter of The Twilight Saga, the romance between mortal Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) grows more intense as ancient secrets threaten to destroy them. When Edward leaves in order to keep Bella safe, she tests fate in increasingly reckless ways to glimpse her love once more. But when she's saved from the brink by her friend, Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner), Bella will uncover mysteries of the supernatural world that will put her in more peril than ever before. Based on Stephenie Meyer's #1 NEW YORK TIMES bestseller, the film is directed by Chris Weitz, screenplay by Melissa Rosenberg, produced by Wyck Godfrey and Karen Rosenfelt, and executive produced by Marty Bowen, Greg Mooradian, Mark Morgan, and Guy Oseary.
