A weekend-long cat convention featuring vendors, cat influencers, panels, workshops, a kitten alley with adoptable kittens, and cat contests.
Sea-Meow Convention 2026 takes over the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall on Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8, from 10 AM to 5 PM both days. It's the fourth edition of the event, put on by the Meowtropolitan Foundation, and they're calling it the biggest cat convention in the Purrcific Northwest—a weekend-long festival for cat owners and admirers that also supports feline organizations across the country.
Inside the hall, there are more than 100 vendors, meet-and-greets with cat influencers, and panels and workshops led by cat behaviorists. The Kitten Alley brings in adoptable kittens, and there's cat face painting and cat bingo on the side. The convention's signature contests are back too: the Annual Cat Calling Contest—which they claim is the world's first—and a Cat Cosplay Costume Contest. It's a mix of shopping, learning, and just hanging out with other people who love cats.
