It was an emotional night at Dublin’s 3Arena on Thursday, as Boyzone played their last ever Irish gig as part of their Thank You & Goodnight farewell tour.
Bandmates Ronan Keating, Mikey Graham, Keith Duffy, and Shane Lynch delighted fans by singing some of their greatest hits – and new tracks from their final album.
In between their performances, the band got sentimental with fans as they referenced Stephen Gately, who sadly passed away in 2009.
According to Independent.ie, Ronan gushed, “The four of us, the five of us, want to thank you.”

“In 1993 we were babies we were kids, we didn’t know our arse from our elbow and we got on that green beautiful green bird and we flew to London and all hell broke loose and we never saw it coming nobody did. We’ve lived the dream.”
“They say you’ll never work a day in your life if you’re doing the job you love and we have never worked a day in our lives thanks to you guys. Thanks so much,” he continued.
“We’ve only begun this tour, we’ve a long road ahead of us, but tonight feels like the climax of something really big in our lives. It’s really special. It’s going to be emotional. I’m trying to get through this.”
