Now you can nab yourself some official merch to commemorate the disastrous event, with proceeds going to organiser and con artist Billy McFarland's victims.
The U.S. Marshals Service is auctioning off 126 lots of "minor assets" from the now infamous music festival, including Fyre Festival-branded caps, hoodies, sweatpants, wristbands, and commemorative tokens. With starting bids ranging from $5 to $65, the auction of these seized items will probably barely dent the $26 million McFarland defrauded from over 80 investors, but it's better than nothing.

McFarland was on pretrial release from July 1, 2017 until June 12, 2018 prior to being tried for fraud in connection with the Fyre Festival. During this time he operated yet another fraud, selling non-existent tickets to events such as the Met Gala through his company NYC VIP Access.
He ultimately pled guilty to fraud and making false statements to law enforcement, and was sentenced to six years' imprisonment. McFarland is due for release in 2023.
