Cat Video Fest 2026 at the Rome Capitol Theatre, Sat. Nov. 7 at 2:30 p.m.
A cheap, family-friendly afternoon of cat videos on a big screen, with adoptable cats in the lobby and part of every ticket going to a local cat rescue.
Cat Video Fest 2026 plays the Rome Capitol Theatre, 220 W. Dominick St., on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026, from 2:30 to about 4 p.m. Tickets are $8, $7 for seniors, students and military, $6 for Capitol Friends members and $4 for kids 12 and under, per the Daily Sentinel and the theatre's event page.
The main feature is the touring Cat Video Fest reel, a fresh compilation of the year's best cat clips. Before it rolls, the Capitol shows a short reel of cat videos sent in by local viewers.
The theatre is partnering with Purrs and Whiskers, a local cat welfare group. A share of every ticket goes to them, and they'll have cats available for adoption on site. Vendors will be set up too; names weren't published.
