Up-and-coming global girl group Katseye will embark on The WildWorld Tour in fall 2026, which will include a stop at Austin’s Moody Center on Tuesday, November 10.<\/p>\n

Following an eight-date European leg, the group will begin the North American leg of the tour on October 13 in Miami, Florida, traveling to 19 cities over the course of 45 days.<\/p>\n

While they’re in Texas, Katseye will also perform in Dallas on November 11.<\/p>\n

Like many similar groups, Katseye was formed in 2023 through a reality competition series, Dream Academy, which aired solely on YouTube, a news release reminds. A cast of 20 competitors was winnowed down to six eventual winners: Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Manon Bannerman, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza, and Yoonchae Jeung.<\/p>\n

The six members come from four different countries: United States (Avanzini, Raj, and Skiendiel), Switzerland (Bannerman), Philippines (Laforteza), and South Korea (Jeung), making it a true global group.<\/p>\n

In recent months, Bannerman has gone on a “temporary hiatus”<\/a> from the group to “focus on her health and wellbeing.” There is no word yet if she will rejoin the group for the tour.<\/p>\n

The group released EPs in both 2024 and 2025, and will release a third EP, Wild, on August 14 just before the start of the tour.<\/p>\n

Three recent singles \u2014 “Gabriela,” “Internet Girl,” and their latest, “Pinky Up” \u2014 have made the top 30 on Billboard”s Hot 100 chart, indicating their rise has only just started.<\/p>\n

Fans will be happy to know that Katseye will perform at the 52nd American Music Awards on May 25. The group is nominated in three categories: New Artist of the Year, Best Music Video (for \u201cGnarly\u201d), and Breakthrough Pop Artist. <\/p>\n

Tickets for North American dates will first be available starting with a Weverse Artist Presale<\/a> on Wednesday, May 20, from 11 am to 2 pm, available to paid Weverse membership holders.<\/p>\n

Weverse members must apply for the presale link by Sunday, May 17, at 4 pm in order to participate.<\/p>\n

That will be followed by the Katseye World Presale at 3 pm on May 17. The general on-sale begins on Thursday, May 21, at 3 pm at katseye.world<\/a>.<\/p>\n
