Meowfest made its epic debut here in Vancouver in 2018 to a sold-out crowd, but opted to hold the furry fun in Toronto in 2019. Now the one-day fest has revealed they will be returning to Vancouver on Sat. Aug. 1 at the Sheraton Vancouver Airport Hotel.
If you're down to purr-ty, mark your calendars for Meowfest's programming encompassing all forms of cat-centric entertainment including workshops, adoptable kitties, shopping, food vendors, celebrity cats, insta-worthy photo ops, and live music.
Among the celeb cats slated to appear are Jiro Boo (the tie-wearing cat who lives in Vancouver's Olympic Village 'hood), Nala Cat, and Fomo the Cat, with more expected to join the feline-up as the event approaches. Human stars include Kitten Lady Hannah Shaw and the creators of "Cats of Instagram."
Early bird tickets go on sale Saturday, Feb. 29 at 10 a.m. for just $20 apiece, and are expected to sell out quickly. The next advance ticketing sale begins March 28. A final wave of "last minute" tickets will be made available starting July 27.
