OT: Fyre Festival 2

There was a documentary made in 2019.

At any rate, McFarland has announced a Fyre Festival 2. Tickets range from $1,400 to $1.1 million.

Hmmm. Give that boy Billy something to finally sober him up. The rich are already thoroughly celebrated and catered to, but the last thing they want is public association with a scattered brained publicity hound who has already failed at business.

I think.

Mark your calendars—or maybe don’t. Fyre Festival 2 is officially scheduled for May 30 to June 2 in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. That’s right: Billy McFarland is back with a sequel to the infamous 2017 disaster. But with less than two months to go, there’s still no artist lineup, the venue just changed and permit details suggest this may be more of a beachside hang than a full-on festival.

As of now, the festival is apparently still on, though details remain scarce. Tickets are no longer available, as they’ve quietly vanished from Soldout, the fest’s official ticketing site. Prices had ranged from $1,400 to over $1 million for VIP group packages.

Originally hyped for Isla Mujeres, the fest abruptly announced a new location—Playa del Carmen—just 70 days out. Why the switch? Officials on Isla Mujeres said they’d never been contacted by the Fyre team, nor had they issued any permits.

McFarland said an entertainment lineup would drop in March, but nothing has been revealed as of yet…
