Fyre Festival Ticket Holders Win $2 Million Compensation

  • Nearly 300 people who bought tickets to the Fyre Festival have won a collective $2 million payout in a class-action settlement.
  • The now-infamous 2017 music event was canceled the day it was scheduled to start.
  • Each person will each get $7,220 pending final approval next month.
  • Fyre Media touted the Bahamas-based music festival as the "cultural experience of the decade", promising 8,000 attendees luxury beach huts and superstar performances. 
  • But, when people arrived, they found disaster relief tents to stay in and cold cheese sandwiches to eat.
