Malala Yousafzai, the youngest person to ever receive a Nobel Peace Prize was among the younger fans descending on Croke Park over the weekend as Oasis made their Irish return.
The band kicked off their Live 25 tour last month, and this past weekend played two sold-out nights at Dublin's Croke Park.
Amongst the younger cohort of fans was Malala, as well as Bono's son, Elijah Hewson. Despite being back together for the firs time since 2009, Oasis' reunion tour has garnered fans of all ages heading to packed out stadiums. Pic:There was much speculation as to whether the feud was actually over between brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, but they seem to have squashed doubts over the weekend at the home of the GAA.
With tickets like gold dust, avid fans flocked to Croke Park with those not lucky enough to have gotten their hands on some tickets gathering outside the stadium to enjoy the gig from afar.

Michael Flatley was also among attendees and posed alongside Peggy Gallagher, the Mayo mammy to Noel and Liam.
On Sunday, it was a more political affair with Fine Gael TDs Simon Harris, Helen McEntee and Patrick O'Donovan all joining revelers for the major sing-song.
While it's the first time in 15 years the band have been together, there was plenty of young die-hard fans at the gigs, including 28-year-old Malala.

In 2012, at the age of 15 years old, Yousafzai was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman after campaigning for education for girls in Pakistan.
She became the youngest winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014.

Meanwhile, Inhaler frontman and Bono's son Elijah Hewson danced and sang his heart away as he celebrated his 26th birthday at the gig.
