KATSEYE Land Sziget 2027 Headline Slot on Day Two, Joining a Roster Once Shared With Lola Young
HYBE x Geffen Records' KATSEYE will headline Sziget Festival 2027 in Budapest on August 11. The festival drew about 350,000 visitors this year.

KATSEYE will headline Sziget Festival 2027 in Budapest, performing on the festival's second day, August 11, HYBE x Geffen Records announced on the 11th. The event runs August 10–14 (local time) on Óbuda Island in the Danube, and this year it drew roughly 350,000 visitors.
First held in 1993, Sziget is one of Europe's major music festivals. KATSEYE, the HYBE and Geffen Records co-created girl group, was part of this year's lineup too, alongside names like The Fontaines D.C. and Lola Young. Moving from a spot on the bill to a headline slot in a single year is a notable step up.
The group has had a busy festival season in North America. They played Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, the Governors Ball and the Hinterland Music Festival. They also made appearances on high-profile stages including NBC's Saturday Night Live and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2026.
KATSEYE's world tour, THE WILDWORLD TOUR, covered North America and Europe and sold out every date. Not every stop went smoothly: shows in North America were postponed in succession, including a Detroit date pushed back on the day of the performance, with the agency citing member Megan's recovery from a concussion and health issues. The group is also scheduled to play its first Korean concert at KSPO Dome in February.
Headlining Sziget puts KATSEYE in front of a large European crowd on a stage that usually belongs to established acts, and it follows a year in which the group's profile grew on both sides of the Atlantic.
