Investor Warns of Risks for Fyre II Festival
News summary

Andy King, a former investor who lost $1 million during the disastrous Fyre Festival in 2017, has expressed significant concerns about the upcoming Fyre II, set for April 25-28, 2025, on a private island off Mexico. King warns of 'red flags' surrounding the event, particularly due to the involvement of founder Billy McFarland, who was released from prison after serving time for fraud related to the original festival. Ticket prices for Fyre II range from $499 to $1.1 million, with McFarland claiming to have sold 100 early bird tickets already. King recalls past promises that were not fulfilled during the first festival, stating that if McFarland is 'running the show again,' it is likely to fail. Despite expressing hope that Fyre II could succeed, King remains skeptical about McFarland's approach and ability to manage the event. The warning comes amid a backdrop of renewed interest following a documentary about the original festival's failures.
