The online transaction, which came in at $245,300, marks the end of the convicted conman's attempt to revive the tainted festival brand.
Former New York concert promoter Heath Miller says he’s working with Billy McFarland to stage a Fyre pop-up at his family resort on the Honduran island of Utila.
The festival's brand and IP are on the market after the follow-up event was indefinitely "postponed."
Organizers for the event, a follow-up to Billy McFarland's failed 2017 Fyre Festival, are reportedly telling ticketholders it will be rescheduled.
Billy McFarland shared copies of alleged permits and approval letters from local officials on Instagram in an effort to reassure ticketholders.
The festival, which follows 2017's disastrous Fyre Fest from convicted fraudster Billy McFarland, is scheduled to take place on Isla Mujeres in Mexico from May 30 to June 2.
After several false starts, the high-profile ex-con said his redemption event is set for April 25-28 off the coast of Mexico.
The convicted felon will trade blows with Justin Custado at the Web3 conference Consensus 2024 on Thursday.
A former fellow inmate at a prison in Ohio says McFarland owes him $740,000.
He also revealed that the Bahamian people and companies owed money from the disgraced first edition of the festival "are getting paid back right now."
