In August of this year, your favorite cat videos will make the move off of your computer screen and onto the big screen for the first ever “Internet Cat Video Film Festival.”

“I could not be more excited to literally bring this solo cat video viewing behavior out in the open,” event organizer Katie Czarniecki Hill said in a blog post announcing the event.

Set to be held August 30th at the Walker Arts Center in Minneapolis, the cat-friendly hour-long festival will be free to attend and encourages cat enthusiasts to submit their own favorite feline flicks to be included in the presentation.

The event description on the Arts Center website describes a festival that will test social boundries:

While normally viewed alone on a computer screen, our unofficial cat-lady-in-residence invites you to come gather together on the field and LOL in the presence of others as your favorite silly cat videos are projected larger-than-life one after the other. Experience the joy of a surprised kitten or keyboard cat together. Participate in this experiment that tests the social boundaries of the online community with a live, off-line event as we attempt to gather in physical space and real time to enjoy one of the internet’s most popular phenomena.

You can nominate your favorite cat video to be included in the festival now through July 30th.
