While concerts usually cater to those of all ages, Katseye seems to have attracted a very specific demographic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Concert-goer Melissa shared a video on <a aria-label=\"social mediaLink opens in a new tab.\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mylondon.news\/all-about\/viral\" rel=\"follow nofollow noopener\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\">social media<\/a> immediately after the gig on Thursday, in which she said she was &#8220;shocked&#8221; by one key detail about the people around her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Melissa explained that while she &#8220;expected&#8221; to see some young children at the Katseye gig, she couldn&#8217;t believe how many kids were actually in attendance, as she joked she thought she&#8217;d walked into a &#8220;Wiggles concert&#8221; by mistake.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Issuing a warning to other concertgoers on TikTok, she said: &#8220;I was expecting there to be a lot of kids, because it&#8217;s Katseye, but if you&#8217;re going to a concert, I don&#8217;t think you&#8217;re going to realise how many there actually are. I thought I was going to a Wiggles concert. That&#8217;s how many kids there are.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Lara Raj, Yoonchae Jeung, Megan Skiendiel and Daniela Avanzini of Katseye perform during the Wildworld Tour at The O2 Arena\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/0_KATSEYE-Perform-At-The-O2-Arena.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p aria-label=\"Some concertgoers said the show was 'inappropriate' for the young fans in attendance\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">Some concertgoers said the show was &#8216;inappropriate&#8217; for the young fans in attendance(Image: Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Another TikTok video from a woman named Gab showed the group on stage performing &#8220;Touch,&#8221; while the voice of a young girl could be heard screaming along to the lyrics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">She captioned her video: &#8220;Can there please be an age limit for Katseye concerts because this is literally all I could hear.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Commenters on both videos were split over whether children should attend the concert. Many parents defended their decision to take their kids, saying their little ones had the &#8220;best night&#8221; at the gig.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">One mum said: &#8220;Took my nine-year-old yesterday to see them! What a night! She sang her heart out and told me it was the best night of her life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Another argued: &#8220;As a mum of a 10-year-old who&#8217;s taking my daughter tonight, I do slightly agree, but I do know the songs. The thing is, Katseye came out with a bang with these great dance routines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">&#8220;Of course young girls are going to recreate these, just like I did with Steps and S Club 7. Some of the songs I used to sing were also rude, but I had no idea what I was singing, for example, Aqua&#8217;s Barbie Girl, and Spice Girls&#8217; 2 Become 1 isn&#8217;t so innocent.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Another person argued: &#8220;It&#8217;s no different to when I was young. I loved Madonna; she was very sexual, but I didn&#8217;t see that. It was about the music. Let the kids enjoy it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Another agreed, writing: &#8220;Parents grew up with Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and a whole lot of rap videos on MTV. So we think Katseye is ok.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">However, others think concerts are &#8220;not for kids&#8221;. Someone else shared: &#8220;I was shocked at how many really young girls there were. All singing, dancing and swearing along to the songs. A mum sat next to me looked in utter shock and horror when she heard the words to some of the songs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">There is no age restriction for seated tickets at the Katseye shows at the O2 Arena. There is, however, a 16+ age restriction for floor tickets, and a message on the O2 website warns that you may be asked to show ID to access that area.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Katseye performed their first of two shows at London&#8217;s O2 Arena on Thursday (September 3) and while fans&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":118007,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[26],"tags":[12413,27,674,8519],"class_list":["post-118006","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-london","tag-gig-tickets","tag-london","tag-music","tag-o2-arena"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@UnitedKingdom\/117216388320698028","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=118006"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/118006\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/118007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=118006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=118006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=118006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
