Description

🔥 Billy McFarland & FYRE Festival 2: Tickets Are on Sale… But Does it Exist? 🔥

Billy McFarland is back with FYRE Festival 2, promising an exclusive luxury event in 2025 on Isla Mujeres, Mexico. But with no announced lineup, no confirmed permits, and ticket packages priced up to $1.1 MILLION, the question remains—is this even real?

In this episode of Tickets to Travel: The Business of Travel Experiences, host Mario Bauduin breaks down what's actually happening with FYRE Fest 2, revisits the infamous disaster of FYRE Festival 1, and explains what it really takes to plan a legitimate destination festival.

We cover: ✔️ The logistical failures of FYRE 1—remember the FEMA tents and sad cheese sandwiches? ✔️ Why selling tickets before securing venues, talent, and permits is a major red flag. ✔️ The real industry professionals—like On Location, Elevate Experiences, Vibee, and Playa Luna Presents—who do this the right way. ✔️ A step-by-step breakdown of how destination festivals are actually planned. ✔️ And, of course, a deep dive into those absurd ticket packages (Ignite, Fuego, Phoenix, and the $1.1M Prometheus package—seriously?).
