The Fyre Festival II reveals alleged ticket data, date and location

Tickets for the Fyre Festival II are now available for the morbally curious and/or slightly deceptive music fan of 1,400 to 1.1 million US dollars.

Billy McFarland, the convicted fraudster behind the notorious First Fyre Festival, finally revealed the details for his big second attempt, which will apparently take place on Isla Mujeres in Mexico on May 30 to June 2. The announcement on Monday, February 24th, came with the all-caps header on social media: “Fyre Festival 2 is real” the type of slogan, in which people may ask many questions that have already asked the “Fyre Festival” 2 is answered 2 is real “tagline”.

“I am sure that a lot of people think I'm crazy that I will do it again,” said McFarland and explained the obvious in an explanation. “But I feel crazy not to do it again. After years of thinking and the now thinking planning, the new team and I have amazing plans for Fyre 2. The adventure seekers who trust the vision and make the leap will help to write history. ”

The Fyre Fest II currently has a real website on which you can insert a real credit card number and supposedly buy real tickets and hospitality packages. What Fyre Fest II currently does not have is very specific details about what the participants can expect in Isla Mujeres in a few months.

Rather, there are vague promises of “border surveillance excursions on day” and “intimate beach performances in the night”. The “listing” – as it is – was described as “led by international and local talent”.

McFarland has been teasing Fyre Fest II for a few years in 2023, when there were even fewer details about the event than now, he set up a lot of 100 advance books for 499 US dollars and made it out. Last September, McFarland spoke to NBC News about Fyre II and said: “We have the chance to hug this storm and really control our ship into the chaos that happened, and if it is good, I think that fyre the It has a chance to be this annual festival that really takes over the festival industry. “

McFarland said guilty for fraud in connection with the catastrophic First Fyre Festival and was released from prison in 2022 after serving a little less than four years.
