Katseye to headline Lollapalooza India in January

Girl group Katseye is scheduled to headline Lollapalooza India 2027 in January, according to its agency HYBE on Wednesday.

The group will perform on the final day of the two-day music festival on Jan. 24 at Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai, India. Next year will be the festival’s fifth year since starting in 2023. The stage will be especially meaningful because Lara, one of the group’s members, is Indian American, according to the agency.

Other notable artists such as Grammy-winning singer Olivia Dean, rock band Limp Bizkit and Irish band Fontaines D.C. are scheduled to perform at the festival.  Approximately 40 teams will perform on four different stages.

Earlier this month, Katseye performed at the 2026 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles.

Its latest release "Animal" ranked record No. 8 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart on Tuesday. The chart ranks the most popular songs of the week by tracking radio airplay of select radio stations in the United States.

"Wild," released in August, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart upon its release. The band is currently on its “The Wildworld” tour across Europe and North America.

Katseye was formed by HYBE and Geffen Records through the audition program "The Debut: Dream Academy" in 2023. The group consists of six members: Manon, Sophia, Daniela, Lara, Megan and Yoonchae. Manon and Sophia are currently on hiatus from the group. 

Katseye is known for hits such as "Touch" (2024), "Gnarly" (2025) and "Gabriela" (2025).
