Ex-1D star Payne, 31, fell to his death from the third floor of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, last Wednesday (16 Oct).
Thousands of fans gathered at vigils around the world to pay honour to the singer yesterday (20 Oct).
The tributes were held in cities such as Birmingham, Glasgow, Paris, Manila and Sydney.
A gathering in London’s Hyde Park was attended by around 1,000 fans, according to the police.
Payne rose to fame as a member of the boyband which was created on The X Factor in 2010.
He performed alongside bandmates Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Louis Tomlinson until they embarked on an indefinite hiatus in 2016.
