Steps at Yorkshire Wildlife Park: Audience complain they couldn't hear 90s band perform and concert started an hour late
The legendary 1990s group were booked to perform at the attraction on Saturday August 27 as part of their 25th anniversary tour and were the headliners for the park’s annual Safari Nights event.
Yet concert-goers were filmed chanting 'turn it up' because they couldn't hear the music from the stage.

Those watching from the ‘bronze’ seating section have slammed Yorkshire Wildlife Park online, saying many of them could not hear the show, and some attendees left early.
"Absolute joke!” wrote Kirsty Ward on the Yorkshire Wildlife Park Facebook page. “Steps are over an hour late on stage, then we can’t hear a thing they are saying or singing! The screens go off so we can’t even see them! Most of the crowd already left. Waste of money!”
Rebecca Tate wrote: “Sat here since 6pm, Steps didn’t start until 8pm (should have been 7pm) and we can’t hear it at all from where we are sat.”

"My grandma’s TV is louder,” wrote Anthony Wilson. “Nobody can hear a thing in the bronze section.”
Yorkshire Wildlife Park has been contacted for a comment and asked if any customers will be receiving refunds.
