Alarms raised over legitimacy of Fyre festival 2: ‘An event that does not exist’

After the announcement of a follow-up festival in Mexico, tourism and local officials have denied any knowledge of its existence

When tickets to the second Fyre festival went on sale this week, there was just one concrete detail: it would take place on Isla Mujeres, a tropical island off Cancun, Mexico.

But the festival seems to be repeating its own history as an improvised disaster after the local government in Isla Mujeres denied knowing anything about it.
