Overseasidol.com — BNK48 has officially released its special single titled Celebration today, February 8, 2026.
The single serves as a meaningful closing chapter for BNK48’s 3rd Generation, following the graduation announcement of eight members.
Both the song and its official music video are now available on major digital music platforms and the official BNK48 YouTube channel.
The graduation announcement was first revealed on December 20, 2025, during the BNK48 & CGM48 Christmas Festival 2025, KANGAROO VILLAGE, held at MCC Hall, The Mall Lifestore Bangkae.
Fans were shocked when eight 3rd Generation members, Earn, Earth, Eve, Grace, Kaofrang, Mean, Peak, and Yayee, announced their decision to graduate at the same time.
Despite the announcement, all graduating members will continue official group activities until March 6, 2026.
Meanwhile, five other members from the same generation, Hoop, Pancake, Yoghurt, Fame, and Monet have confirmed their contract renewals and will continue their journey with BNK48.
This contrast between farewell and continuation adds emotional depth to the group’s current chapter.
The single Celebration stands out as a special project, featuring all 13 members of BNK48’s 3rd Generation as senbatsu.
Instead of having a fixed center, the song adopts a rotation system, allowing each member to take the center position.
This concept symbolizes unity, celebration, and shared memories, making the song a heartfelt tribute to their time together.
