The all-new 2026 edition of the beloved CatVideoFest is a hand-selected, curated collection of the most entertaining, surprising and endearing cat videos of the year, together with some unique videos submitted directly to festival organizers. An underground sensation for years, CatVideoFest is now a national theatrical event and one of the DFT’s most reliably popular annual attractions. While you’ll have a great time, the CatVideoFest has a more serious purpose as well – the festival’s creators contribute a portion of ticket revenues each year to animal welfare associations, shelters and cat-focused charities in every state in which CatVideoFest plays. Tickets are available at the door, though advance ticket purchase on dia.org is the most convenient way to secure your seat without “having kittens” while waiting in line.

“Watching cat videos is good for you.” –The Wall Street Journal
