Oasis led a joyous, rousing evening of anthems on the first of two nights at Dublin’s Croke Park as part of their Live ’25 reunion tour.

Tens of thousands of fans descended on the capital to see the ’90s Britpop superstars’ first gig in Ireland since 2009.

“Liam and Noel Gallagher knocked it out of Croke Park on a barnstorming, air-punching, controversy-proof night that transcends nostalgia and delivers a whopping dose of catharsis,” writes Laura Slattery in her review of the gig.

Oasis did not have to do very much to unlock the fervent support of their tribe.
