The “Twilight Over Portland” fan convention planned for this upcoming weekend has been canceled.
Gil Birmingham was among the cast members set to appear at the event. He posted on his Twitter account, “It was cancelled due to the investor backing out. Money issue.” He also called the cancellation a “bummer.”
In a statement to the Examiner, Elissa Cotton, founder of TalkingTwilight.com, said, “Due to circumstances beyond our control the event has been rescheduled to March.”
However, fans of Twilight still have an opportunity to meet with one of the movie’s stars this weekend. Actor Peter Facinelli, will appear at the Jantzen Beach SuperCenter on Saturday, August 29 at noon. He will hold an autograph and photo session with fans, with sales benefiting Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. The canceled convention would have also benefited Doernbecher.
Fans have another chance to mingle with the stars next year at the Official Twilight Fan Convention.
