Westlife played their homecoming gig in Croke Park last night and the fan reaction was immense.

Sporting t-shirts featuring the familiar faces of Kian, Shane, Mark and Nicky, fans belted out the lyrics of Westlife’s most-loved songs with the setlist including all the crowd-pleasing hits.

For many, it was a nostalgic experience and a chance to relive childhood memories with the majority declaring it an amazing concert and a night to remember.

Westlife also made sure to thank their “fantastic fans” and declared that it would be the “best Westlife gig” ever because they had the best audience.

The venue was an emotional choice for them too, the same location as their farewell gig, coined their last every concert, back in 2012.

Thankfully, the Twenty Tour marked Westlife’s return to Dublin and the delight of their loyal brigade of fans who were over the moon at seeing the guys on stage again.
