Oscilloscope Laboratories presents CatVideoFest 2026, a compilation of the latest and best cat videos culled from countless hours of unique submissions and sourced animations, music videos, and classic internet powerhouses. Each year, across the country, local theaters partner with nearby cat-focused charities, animal welfare associations and shelters alike — a portion of ticket proceeds from every screening at The Cary goes directly to local cats in need at the Goathouse Refuge.
What is CatVideoFest 2026? This event is a curated compilation of the internet's newest and most popular cat videos shown on the big screen to raise money for animal welfare. The seventy-five-minute reel features everything from classic viral clips to indie animations, making it a lighthearted afternoon for anyone who appreciates feline humor. Tickets start at just $4.66, making this an affordable outing for children of all ages, especially those in elementary and middle school who already love online videos. The Cary Theater is located in the heart of downtown Cary, where you can find free parking in the nearby town deck on Charlie Gaddy Lane. Because this is a traditional theater setting, you will want to leave strollers in the car and plan to purchase classic movie snacks at the concession stand. It is a smart pick for your weekend because a portion of your ticket purchase goes directly to the Goathouse Refuge in Pittsboro. You can enjoy a air-conditioned afternoon of laughter while actively helping rescue cats in our immediate community.
