KATSEYE released a video featuring its five active members ahead of Lollapalooza Argentina, confirming performances without Manon Bannerman, who is on hiatus for health reasons. The message targets South American fans amid mixed reactions.
On March 11, 2026, KATSEYE shared a video on the Lollapalooza Argentina Instagram page, showcasing Yoonchae Jeung, Sophia Laforteza, Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, and Megan Skiendiel. Known as EYEKONS to fans, the group greeted viewers with “Hola Argentina!” and said, “We can’t wait to see you at Lollapalooza on Friday!” The clip featured footage from their debut of “Touch” at last summer’s Lollapalooza Chicago.
This follows the February 20, 2026, announcement of Manon Bannerman’s temporary hiatus to focus on her health, as detailed in prior coverage. HYBE x Geffen Records confirmed the group would continue activities, with no return date specified.
The video affirms the quintet will perform at Lollapalooza Argentina on Friday, Chile on Saturday, and Brazil on March 20. Fans showed disappointment and hope in comments, such as “it would be so good if u can bring manon” and queries like “y Manon?” alongside GIFs of Bannerman.
Recently Grammy-nominated for best new artist and best pop duo/group performance for “Gabriela,” KATSEYE performed “Gnarly” in the best new artist medley. They are set for back-to-back Coachella debuts next month.
