Believe it or not, Fyre Festival is back. Billy McFarland announced the return of the storied event under the name Fyre Festival 2. Now the real question is, who’s dumb enough to pay to go to this?

Appearing on NBC’s TODAY, McFarland revealed his “dream is finally becoming a reality.”
It’s a little different this time. There is a festival operator in place and a different company for hotels, travel, and ticketing. But will it have a different narrative?
“FYRE 2 really isn’t about the past, and it’s not really about me. It’s about taking the vision, which is strong,” McFarland said.
