Fyre Festival was a fraudulent luxury music festival founded by Billy McFarland, scheduled to take place on April 28-30 and May 5-7, 2017 in the Bahamas. After being promoted as a luxury event with villas, gourmet meals, and more, for which attendees paid top-dollar, they instead received prepackaged sandwiches and FEMA tents as their accommodation.
In March 2018, McFarland pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud to defraud investors and ticket holders, and a second count to defraud a ticket vendor that occurred while out on bail. In October 2018, McFarland was sentenced to six years in prison and ordered to forfeit US$26 million.
In April of this year, after being released from prison, McFarland took to social media to state that he is working on Fyre Festival 2.
