The line-up consisted of Blue, Five and the Westlife-Boyzone amalgamation, Boyzlife.

All three bands wowed concertgoers as they sang a selection of their hits for the one-off international crowd pleasing gig.

Appearing at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Stadium in Al Garhoud, they sang 26 classic hits from yesteryear in a nod to their incredible music legacies.

All four members of Blue were present with Duncan James, Simon Webbe, Antony Costa and Lee Ryan all taking to the stage.

Keith Duffy and Brian McFadden wowed the crowd as Boyzlife after opting to perform as a duo to merge two of Ireland’s biggest pop acts for a unique act.

Sean Conlon, Ritchie Neville, and Scott Robinson appeared as Five singing hits including Everybody Get Up.

One attendee was left thoroughly impressed by the gig as they wrote online: “You guys rocked, please come back to Dubai.”

As another penned: “You guys were fantastic this evening!!”

Blue had huge chart success with hits such as All Rise and One Love which took them right to the top of the charts.

They have been fortunate enough to see no line-up changes with the group’s close bond helping to keep them together and performing for almost 30 years.

Five have been performing as a trio since 2014 after rapper Abz Love walked away from the band.

Jason ‘J’ Brown is another former member of the boyband but he opted not to perform with them again when they got back together in 2012 as part of ITV2 reality show The Big Reunion.
