India, Feb. 24 -- 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."
