Fyre Fest 2, the much-anticipated sequel to the infamous music festival, has been indefinitely postponed. Billy McFarland, who organized the original Fyre Fest and spent four years in prison for related fraud, announced the delay via email to ticket-holders. The festival faced numerous logistical challenges, including difficulties securing a location and necessary permits. Despite selling tickets up to the morning of its postponement, the festival only had one confirmed act, Antonio Brown, and had not secured a viable venue, leading to inevitable cancellation and refunds for ticket purchasers.
According to an email sent to ticket-holders on Wednesday, the festival has been "postponed and a new date will be announced." In the meantime, ticket-holders will apparently be issued refunds.
Since announcing the festival back in 2023, McFarland struggled to secure a location for the event. He initially planned for it to take place in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, only to relocate it after local officials denied having any knowledge of his plans.
