Fyre Fest 2 Postponed, Obviously


Fyre Festival 2 lasted even less time than its disastrous predecessor, with Billy McFarland postponing the the fest before even announcing a lineup.

McFarland previously pleaded guilty to fraud charges related to the disastrous first Fyre Festival and was released from prisonin 2022 after serving less than four years.

McFarland claimed that the event had 1,800 confirmed guests and that its lineup would feature rappers, DJs, pilots, creators, and athletes, but did not share who would actually be attending.
