The Fyre Fest 2 saga continues with a turn of events no one, and I mean no one expected. Billy McFarland’s Fyre Fest 2 sent out an email to ticket holders explaining that they had decided to delay the event and change the location. This was due to multiple arguments with local officials.
The Fyre Fest 2 Timeline
At first, the event was allegedly happening at Isla Mujeres May 30 to June 1. However, after an official statement from the Isla Mujeres social media accounts, the event moved to Playa del Carmen. According to the owner, Billy Mcfarland, the organization had all the permits necessary to run the event.
Ticket sales had started without a clear lineup or any official venues. The same thing happened at Playa del Carmen, when the official local tourism and security accounts released statements. In them, they both denied any involvement with Fyre Fest. They have made it clear that there were no permits to hold an event of that magnitude.
The most recent email states that after permits and press conferences happened, the government backstabbed Fyre Fest. We know officials have claimed nothing was happening in Playa del Carmen. Nonetheless, Billy stays firm, saying that the event is still happening, while they search for new locations. However, there are no refund policies or new dates available.
It seems like this won’t be the last we hear from Fyre Fest 2 this year.
