The Fyre Festival is the debacle that keeps debacling.。
On Wednesday, Vice News released new information about the behind-the-scenes planning, or rather lack thereof, that went into Fyre Festival, speaking with former employees who worked on the festival as well as venders who were involved with the event. 。
SEE ALSO:Ja Rule on Fyre Fest: 'I truly apologize as this is NOT MY FAULT' 。It shouldn't come as a surprise that the entire process was one big mess. Led by entrepredouche Billy McFarland, Fyre Festival organizers blew way too much money on Instagram models, didn't start real planning until way too late, and also didn't pay half the people they contracted. In short, Fyre Festival's catastrophic failure could have been seen coming from months away.。
Based on the Vice News report, here's a breakdown by the numbers of exactly what went down during the planning of Fyre Festival.。

9. $500-$2,000: how much people actually paid for their tickets to Fyre Festival. Previous claims of packages purchased for hundreds of thousands of dollars were apparently all gross exaggerations, possibly propagated by festival organizers themselves in an attempt to appeal to potential investors.。
10. $8.4 million in land on Black Point island: what McFarland claimed he had been given for the hosting the festival and promoting the island. In actuality, the island was not private as it was advertised and the festival location was actually an abandoned development site.。

12. 20,000 tickets: a revised number of tickets organizers expected to sell.。
13. 28 days before the event: when the restauranteur that was supposed to supply gourmet catering for the festival cancelled after not being paid.。
