Following the disaster of the ‍first‍ Fyre Festival several ⁢years ago, its founder ‌is reportedly relaunching Fyre ⁣Festival,⁤ having the first set of‌ tickets already allegedly sold out.

The festival’s co-founder Billy ‍McFarland made the announcement‌ on⁢ Tuesday.

The first festival in ⁢2017 had⁤ ended in⁢ disaster which resulted⁤ in McFarland being jailed on fraud ⁤charges. McFarland was booked on a combined prison term of six years for fraud but⁢ ended ⁢up serving four‌ years, after scamming customers and investors for ​over $26​ million. ‌

The festival had promised‍ to have an ‌all-star celebrity ⁢cast, such as Kendall⁤ Jenner and Hailey ‍Bieber, who never showed up, in​ addition to multiple top musicians such as Migos and Blink 182.

The promised accommodations such as luxurious hotels turned out to be FEMA disaster relief tents and fine dining ended up being plain cheese sandwiches.

According⁣ to⁣ the site, the new event will⁣ be “targeted for the end​ of 2024 in the⁤ Caribbean.”

However, there were no details of the⁣ lineup performing and any accommodations the venue will offer to festival goers.

According to the festivals website, ‍the first 100 presale tickets for the new festival​ went⁤ on sale ​Monday, for $499 a ticket​ and sold out the same day.

Additionally, the Bahamas ⁣Tourism Ministry said last year the government “will not⁣ endorse or approve any event on the islands “associated with” McFarland.

According to the site, more ​tickets will become available for the new festival, from ⁣prices ‌ranging from $799 to $7,999 per ticket.
