ME GUSTA MY GATOSI seriously love my cats. They are so spoiled and loved. In the home my husband and I share, there are three supreme rulers: Autumn, Phyllis, and Regan. So when I heard about a Cat Festival featuring famous cats of the Internet, I was pretty excited. Deciding it best to leave our girls at home, we ventured to the Great Walll with 3 friends, hoping to make a day of the cativities.
We were slightly disappointed by the number of vendors present. I think we were hoping for more, as it became difficult to envision us there for more than a few hours.
We wanted to stay until dark to watch the videos, but had arrived when it opened and ran out of things to do. We did enjoy some of the cativities like making cat puppets and watching face painting, but would have liked to see more options.
The in&out privileges were nice and the event was well-organized. EventBrite ticket sales were great and when we couldn't pull up on our tickets on our phone, the people at the gate were able to smoothly handle this problem and we didn't hold up the line at all.
Shirts and other items were sold. Would have liked to see more food than we did, but tried something new and enjoyed it. Beer was sold at a booth from Luca's Taproom, which is next door to the Great Wall.
The line stayed pretty long though! Very noteworthy was the girls band that played. A group of young (high school-ish) girls sang and played instruments - they were really awesome.All in all it was very much worth the price ($10 in advance) and we had a great day and took some great photos. Even some in a photobooth with prop cats. The $5 fee went to support the kitties and was very fair!
I will definitely return next year if the festival returns.
