They have proudly carried on the legacy of Steve “Crocodile Hunter” Irwin since he was tragically killed by a stingray 18 years ago.

And on Sunday, Bindi, her mother Terri and her brother Robert Irwin announced that the annual Steve Irwin Gala will return on May 11 at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

“Guests are treated to a delicious three-course dinner and a night of entertainment and dancing with roaming animals, artists, guest speakers and a live auction,” they said in an Instagram post .

But fans took to social media to question why the event was taking place in America, since Steve is an Australian icon.

“Holding the Steve Irwin Gala in America instead of Australia is disappointing to say the least,” one fan wrote.

Another user asked: “Steve is an Australian icon, why is this happening in America?” »

“Time for a change of location… your Australian, he was Australian so bring him home… no support in the US,” one commented.

However, one delighted American fan wrote: “Thank you so much for organizing a gala in America, as it makes attending more accessible for many of Steve’s fans.”

Other fans were shocked by the $750 ticket price.

“If only it wasn’t $750…I would love to go.” That’s a pretty steep price for any gala,” one fan wrote.
