Billy McFarland sets Fyre Festival II date — with tickets as much as $1.1M

Convicted fraudster Billy McFarland has revealed Fyre Festival II is going ahead off the coast of Mexico next April — with tickets expected to go for as much as $1.1 million.

The 32-year-old announced the details for his second attempt at the disastrous music festival in an interview with NBC News on Monday.

“Fyre Festival II is happening April 25, 2025, so we’re seven and a half months away,” McFarland said.

“We have a private island off the coast of Mexico in the Caribbean, and we have an incredible production company who’s handling everything from soup to nuts.”

Fraudster Billy McFarland is more than $30M in debt — but still plans Fyre Festival 2.0

Tickets for the controversial event, which is slated to run over three days, will range from $1,400 to a staggering $1.1 million, McFarland said, adding that pricier option includes luxury yachts, scuba diving and island hopping.

The entrepreneur, who revealed earlier this year he’s drowning in more than $30 million of debt , stopped short of disclosing the name of the island — or any of the companies he has apparently lined up to help handle logistics for the event.

He also said the festival hadn’t yet booked any artists.

McFarland, however, was adamant the revamped festival wouldn’t be a repeat of the infamous 2017 event in the Bahamas where furious attendees were left stranded with disaster relief tents and cheese sandwiches in styrofoam boxes.

This time, McFarland insisted the island had the physical infrastructure — including hotels and villas for people to stay in.

“We will have cheese sandwiches, though,” he joked. “They’re going to be super expensive, too. We’re going to make them, like, really good. Like, that’ll be the highest priced food item, I think.”

The world-renowned fraudster ended up serving a four-year prison sentence after being convicted of defrauding investors during his first attempt at Fyre Festival.

“I was totally guilty. I committed a crime. Obviously went to prison, and I deserved that prison sentence,” McFarland said.

Soon after he was cut loose in 2022, the huckster started teasing plans for his big comeback and for Fyre Festival II.

He claimed last August that an initial 100 tickets had already been sold at $499 a pop — despite there being no location, lineup or details about accommodation.

“I think there’s a large number of people who want to go to Fyre II because they’re unsure of the outcome, and they would like to have a front-row seat no matter what happens,” McFarland said on Monday about the apparent initial interest.

“Thankfully, we have good partners who will make sure they’re safe and obviously make sure things work out.”

“We have the chance to embrace this storm and really steer our ship into all the chaos that has happened, and if it’s done well, I think Fyre has a chance to be this annual festival that really takes over the festival industry,” he added.
