KATSEYE has postponed two additional concerts on its WILDWORLD tour after member Megan Skiendiel suffered a concussion, forcing the group to change its upcoming schedule.

According to Variety, the group was due to perform at Chicago’s United Center on November 5, followed by a concert at Minneapolis’ Target Center on November 7. Both performances have now been postponed while Skiendiel recovers from her injury.

The announcements initially appeared on the venues’ social media accounts before the group addressed the situation directly. KATSEYE confirmed that its label had decided to postpone the concerts because Skiendiel was recovering from a concussion.

In a statement, the group apologised to fans who had been anticipating the performances, particularly those who had travelled long distances to attend.

The members also asked ticket holders to retain their existing tickets, promising that replacement dates would be announced as soon as possible. No new dates have been confirmed.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The latest postponements follow another disruption to the tour earlier in the week. KATSEYE also cancelled its scheduled performance at Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena on November 2 after Skiendiel became unwell and was unable to perform.

The group has recently been performing with four members, Lara Raj, Daniela Avanzini, Megan Skiendiel and Yoonchae Jeung. Sophia Laforteza announced in August that she would temporarily step back from promotional activities to prioritise her mental health and wellbeing. She has since indicated that she expects to return to the stage in January 2027.

Another member, Manon Bannerman, also announced a temporary hiatus earlier this year to focus on her health and wellbeing.

The latest changes come as KATSEYE continues its international touring commitments. However, the group has not announced whether the postponed performances will affect any other dates on its schedule.

For now, fans in Chicago and Minneapolis are waiting for confirmation of the rescheduled concerts as Skiendiel focuses on recovering from her concussion.
