Disgraced Fyre Fest founder and Certified Scammer - Billy McFarland - says he has secured funding to stage a “2.0 version” of the festival, as well as a companion Broadway musical (Fyre Fest 1.5). “Instead of like traditional Broadway actors, it’s going to be current music artists, combined with the Broadway format of the play - making fun of me, but also I think sharing some of the good sides as well.”
“That’s going to lead to the Island,” McFarland continued. He says his financial backers have agreed to pay off existing debts from the first Fyre Fest, including anyone who is owed money in the Bahamas. ”They’re getting paid back and getting paid back, like right now,” he claimed.
The convicted scammer said FF 2.0 would take place on an island, but not in the Bahamas. He also claimed that several artists have expressed interest in playing the event. ”The reaction for getting artists has been so extreme,” McFarland said. “Really, like half of them are like, fuck off, how dare you can call us. And they’re half - like, literally after I tweeted that Fyre Fest 2.0 is happening, they’ve been texting, emailing, saying, ‘Hey, like what can we do to come.'” Sure Jan.
McFarland made the announcement via his TikTok.
