Fyre Festival 2 has not occurred in early June, late May, as originally planned… ‘The organizers are fully responsible for Mexico as no new dates have been selected yet.
The website states that only tickets are “now unavailable” when customers try to buy, but Billy McFarland, the event’s infamous promoter, now admits that it’s not happening… TMZ confirms a broken story 10 days ago.
The organizers of Fyre Festival 2 say: “We have worked closely with experienced third-party festival operators for the past 18 months to ensure that Fyre Festival 2 is built to the highest standards”…but he claims that the government of Playa del Carmen has been screwed.
The stated organizer says it is sending it to ticket holders. “The government will take your money, issue your permits, promote the event, pretend it has never heard of you.
As to how many fabric organizers are said to be out – McFarland tells us. [Playa del Carmen] I was instructed to make a reservation. ”
He also says they are filming all the meetings with the same PDC government officials who have told the media that they have never heard of Fire.
Certainly the show won’t take place from May 30th to June 2nd, but he says they will soon be determining a new location and date.

As we said… Fyre Festival 2.0 was a shot of McFarland, who redeemed himself after the first festival disaster led to the imprisonment of wire fraud.
BM appeared on “TMZ Live” in February, ensuring the show was all set… he rejected the name of a single act he claimed to have been booked, and only offered vague hints about one DJ.

As the organizers argued, the festival is set to take place in Mexico, so organizers confirmed that the Mexican government is supporting them and that there is no place to place them on the show. In March, Billy posted a video. He said the opposite claim was fake.
Our source said, “…at this point, we have not had an event there, so we’re planning to make it very public and show all the evidence.”

Mexican authorities initially appeared to be mounted on festivals taking place in the country, but recently they have claimed they have no knowledge of what Fire Festival 2 is going on… The photos shared on the festival accounts appear to show documents submitted to the city of Playa del Carmen.
Everything is pretty vague now…but ultimately, FF2 is currently pending.
