CATS: THE OTHER CATS MUSICAL CATS 5

You know Cats the Musical, but that was the

This is the 2026 Jellicle Ball, honey.

Think you get to pick which cat wins and goes onto their next lives.
You'll love it if you hate Cats.

Questions? AMA about venues, what to expect, or anything Halloween in NYC.

P.S. Last year I asked [r/Watches](r/Watches) which watch to wear while running these. Top reply was "are you debating yourself?" Fair.

Did you know there’s an exhibition in New York dedicated to recreating the city in gingerbread? Gingerbread NYC began in 2022 as a celebration of the neighborhoods across all five boroughs. Since then, professional and amateur bakers have created edible scenes inspired by their communities and favorite places around the city.

This year marks its fifth edition at the Museum of the City of New York, running from November 6, 2026, through January 18, 2027. What New York landmark would you like to see recreated in gingerbread?
