The world’s #1 cat video festival is back! Join us at Lincoln Theater in Damariscotta, beginning on Saturday, Aug. 9 for CatVideoFest 2025, a purr-fectly delightful compilation of the latest and greatest cat videos from across the globe.

Edited by Will Braden, creator of the popular “Henri, le Chat Noir,” and presented by Oscilloscope Laboratories, this 74-minute reel features a mix of unique submissions, charming animations, creative music videos, and classic viral favorites that will have audiences of all ages laughing and saying “aww.”

But CatVideoFest isn’t just about adorable entertainment—it’s about making a difference. Each year, local theaters partner with animal welfare organizations to give back. For the past three years 10% of Lincoln Theater’s CatVideoFest ticket proceeds have been donated to Midcoast Humane in Edgecomb, supporting cats in need right here in our community. Every year more of you have attended the videofest helping us raise more money than the previous year. For CatVideoFest 2025, we’d love for you to help us reach our goal of raising $300 for our local feline shelter! So, gather your fellow feline fans, bring the whole family, and experience the internet’s best cat videos on the big screen!

It’s no secret – watching cat videos is good for you. Playing Saturday, Aug. 9 at 2 and 7 p.m., Sunday, Aug 10 at 5 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 13 at 7 p.m, and Thursday, Aug. 14 at 7 p.m.

Lincoln Theater is located at 2 Theater Street in the heart of downtown Damariscotta. Tickets are availble online in advance on the online box office LincolnTheater.org, or in-person at our box office beginning 30 minutes before showtime.
