McFarland is in the process of planning a comeback with Fyre Festival 2, which was originally scheduled to take place in Isla Mujeres, Mexico, between May 30 and June 2 but was moved to Playa del Carmen, Mexico, just weeks before the start date.
However, in a translated statement from the Playa del Carmen government posted to social media, the city said that "[i]n response to rumors about a supposed event called ‘Fyre 2,’ we inform you that no event of that name will be held in Playa del Carmen."
