Fyre Festival 2 Announced for May 2025 in Mexico
Billy McFarland, convicted of fraud after the disastrous 2017 event, claims years of planning have gone into the revival on Isla Mujeres.
- The revived Fyre Festival is scheduled to take place from May 30 to June 2, 2025, on Isla Mujeres, Mexico.
- Billy McFarland, the festival's founder, announced the event on social media, stating it follows years of detailed planning.
- The original 2017 Fyre Festival gained infamy after attendees, promised luxury accommodations and experiences, were left with emergency tents and basic food.
- McFarland was convicted of fraud in 2018 and sentenced to six years in prison but was released early.
- Details about performers remain undisclosed, but ticket packages are being sold for up to $1.1 million, including options like yacht accommodations.
