Fyre Festival 2 announced for 2025: Tickets, dates, and new location revealed

Fyre Festival 2 is returning in 2025 with new dates, location, and luxury experiences.

In September 2024, Billy McFarland confirmed to NBC News’ Savannah Sellers that the infamous Fyre Festival will be returning for a second round in 2025. The original event, which promised a luxurious music festival experience, was marred by controversy as attendees found themselves facing poor conditions and no concerts at all. In 2018, McFarland pleaded guilty to wire fraud charges related to the failed festival and was sentenced to six years in prison, as reported by NBC.

Following its original run in 2017 and surviving being postponed by a month, the Fyre Festival 2 is scheduled to begin from May 30 to June 2. McFarland told Today, “We just needed the extra month to give our partners time to get everything ready.”

The original festival was held on the island of Great Exuma located in the Bahamas, however, this year the location has been shifted to Isla Mujeres. McFarland shared that an “incredible production company” has been appointed and will be “handling everything from soup to nuts.” The company will handle all the logistics of the event with McFarland adding, “But we are developing and building out the private island for the actual festival festivities.”

It’s about the adventure. So you’ll be scuba diving with me. You’ll be bouncing around to other islands and other countries on small planes.”
