Boyzone fans have hit back at the group after they shared their merchandise ahead of their final farewell shows this weekend.
The hit-making Irish group are set to perform just two London concerts at the Emirates Stadium on Friday (June 5) and Saturday (June 6). It will mark the group’s first shows since their 2019 Thank You & Goodnight Tour.
Founding member Stephen Gately tragically died in 2009. However, the group — comprising Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Mikey Graham, and Shayne Lynch — continued to release new music in the years that followed.
With their concerts just days away, Boyzone have revealed what merchandise they will be selling in promotion of the shows. And sadly, fans are not impressed…

The clip featured four different T-shirts. One had “Boyzone Love Me For A Reason” slapped across the front while another had the group’s name and vintage logo on the back.
Meanwhile, the other two had the group featured across the front with throwback images.
