With No Hint of Irony, Fyre Fest 2 Organizers Accuse Mexican Officials of "Theft"
Briefly

Fyre Fest 2's organizers, led by spokesperson Nick Lowe, have accused government officials in Playa del Carmen of theft following the festival's postponement. Lowe claims officials initially supported the event, facilitating venues and public promotion, only to later deny any connection. This accusation echoes the infamous failure of the original Fyre Fest. Despite the setback, founder Billy McFarland remains optimistic about rescheduling and moving the event to a new location, engaging the audience through social media polls.
The Playa del Carmen government introduced us to venues, hotels, and hospitality partners, all of which we signed and paid. They issued permits, held press conferences, and promoted the event publicly before denying any awareness of it.
When a government takes your money, issues permits, promotes the event, and then pretends it's never heard of you, that's not just dishonest-it's theft.
