Here's everything we know about Fyre Festival II — and be warned, it's not a lot. "It really all started during this seven-month stint in solitary confinement," he said in the Fyre Festival II announcement video. When and where is Fyre Festival II?

A leaked sales deck for 2017's Fyre Festival contains the pitch CEO Billy McFarland gave investors ahead of the failed event. The sales deck contains misleading information about Fyre Festival and has been described as "beyond parody." Fyre Festival was advertised an upscale music festival in the Bahamas, complete with luxury beach villas, gourmet food, private jets, and supermodels and influencers galore. The pitch deck was first reported on in 2017 by Vanity Fair's Nick Bilton — who uploaded the full deck online — and recirculated on LinkedIn. Read on to see some of the most shocking, outlandish, and surreal slides from the Fyre Festival pitch deck.

McFarland said he believes PYRT will look considerably different from Fyre Festival.
