Fyre Festival 2: Everything that’s real (and possibly fake)

thefader.com:

The first Fyre Festival is one of the most well-chronicled sagas of the past decade, a luxury weekend of music and good times with beautiful people (and Blink-182) that ended up being more akin to Survivor for influencers.

The fallout led to two documentaries, one prison sentence, and the name Fyre Festival becoming shorthand for any event that over promises and under delivers.

The idea that there could ever be a follow-up event seemed fanciful at best, but organizer Billy McFarland never dropped the idea of a Fyre Festival 2.

In an age of unnecessary sequels, surely this one tops them all. McFarland, though, disagrees. He has said on Instagram that many people would think he is “crazy for doing this again” but is selling tickets to a second Fyre Festival and swears this time it will be different.
