Tickets for Fyre Festival 2, a second iteration of the infamous Fyre Festival in 2917, are now available for sale to the public after its controversial founder, Billy McFarland, spent time behind bars for fraud related to the original event.
Resale ticketing platform Soldout.com on Monday announced that it has started selling tickets to Fyre Festival 2, which is scheduled take place in May on Isla Mujeres in Quintana Roo, Mexico. Tickets are also for sale directly through Fyre Festival Mexico's website, ranging in price from $1,400 to $1.1 million.
"I'm sure many people think I'm crazy for doing this again," McFarland said in a statement announcing the ticket sales and festival packages. "But I feel I'd be crazy not to do it again. After years of reflection and now thoughtful, the new team and I have amazing plans for Fyre 2. The adventure seekers who trust the vision and take the leap will help make history."
