Fyre Festival 2 Postponed, No New Date or Location Announced

Fyre Festival 2 tickets went on sale in February, with general tickets starting at $1,400. The festival was supposed to take place in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, from Friday, May 30, to Monday, June 2.

But on Wednesday, April 16, ticket holders received a message that the event was postponed. “The event has been postponed and a new date will be announced. We have issued you a refund. Once the new date is announced, at that time, you can repurchase if it works for your schedule,” the message said, per ABC News.

“FYRE Festival 2 is still on,” the message said, per NBC News. “We are vetting new locations and will announce our host destination soon. Our priorities remain unchanged: delivering an unforgettable, safe, and transparent experience.”

Billy McFarland, the organizer of the initial Fyre Festival in 2017 and the 2025 festival, announced in August 2023 that the festival would be returning.

“I’m sure many people think I’m crazy for doing this again. But I feel I’d be crazy not to do it again,” McFarland, 33, previously said, per NBC News. “After years of reflection and now thoughtful planning, the new team and I have amazing plans for FYRE 2.”
