Video: Unsavoury scenes at Marlay Park last night as fight breaks out at Avicii gig

Sad to see

JOE

Exactly the type of thing you don’t want to see at a Dublin concert.

Thousands of people descended on Marlay Park in Dublin last night for a concert by Swedish DJ Avicii, who’s become something of a sensation in the last few years.

When large crowds of people congregate in the one place, trouble often follows and unfortunately that appeared to be the case in Marlay Park last night.

The footage below was sent our way by a reader who was in attendance and although it’s very brief and the camera’s view is obstructed slightly, it’s clear that there is a man being kicked by multiple people while laying prone on the ground.

Hopefully it was an isolated event and the vast majority of the crowd enjoyed a trouble-free night; that’s not the type of thing anyone wants to see.
