Hundreds of fans brought the home village of the 23-year-old Olympic double medallist to a standstill with a homecoming celebration centred around St Patrick's Parish Hall.
Daniel wowed the world with his achievements in Paris when he became the Olympic 800m champion and then lifted bronze in the 1500m race. He was also the first Irish swimmer ever to compete in the open water marathon swim at the Olympics.
Supporters in Northern Ireland made sure he knew how proud they are of him throughout Tuesday’s unforgettable ‘Welcome Home’ event.
