FYRE Festival 2's future is in doubt after news that the event will not go on in Playa del Carmen as previously planned.
An official in the Mexican city insisted to The U.S. Sun that they knew nothing about the controversial event after founder Billy McFarland's big press conference.
On Friday, April 4, Billy insisted he had permits from Playa del Carmen's government, despite the official's statement.
"FYRE has been working directly with the government of Playa del Carmen (PDC) and their officials since March 5, 2025 to ensure a safe and successful event," he said.
"All media reports suggesting our team has not been working with the government of PDC are simply inaccurate and based on misinformation."
Then, on Sunday, TMZ reported the event will not happen at all in Playa del Carmen, citing an unnamed Fyre Festival exec.
Billy has not commented on TMZ's report, and it's unclear if the festival will go on at all.
In recent weeks, Billy changed the coordinates of the event to 20°38'07.0″N 87°03'30.8″W- which lines up to the Marina Beach Club in Playa del Carmen.
Previously, the coordinates landed somewhere in the middle of the ocean, which left fans baffled.
