Fyre Festival organizers Billy McFarland and Ja Rule are facing several major lawsuits after attempting to put on a music festival in the Bahamas only to have it collapse before it began.

The most recent suit, filed in the Southern Ditrict of Florida, was brought by two Fyre Festival guests, Emily and Kenneth Reel.

Filed by Greenspoon Marder and seeking $5 million in damages, the suit names Fyre Media, McFarland, Ja Rule (Jeffey Atkins), and two PR firms that were tasked with handling promotion for the festival, 42West and Matte Projects. 

“Even basic due diligence would have revealed that the Fyre Festival could not possibly live up to the hype, as basic infrastructure was not even in place,” the complaint reads. “And, upon information and belief, the PR Defendants did nothing to ensure that what they were marketing, and in turn what people were relying upon in purchasing tickets, was or even could be true.”

One shot showing a woman swimming in the sea off Exuma is highlighted, which according to the plaintiff, is incorrect, as one of the employees of the festival was told not to go near the water off Exuma because of “a rampant shark problem,” the lawsuit says. 

Here’s the full Fyre Festival promo video:

The lawsuit outlines what the expectations were for this supposedly “luxury” festival vs. the realities. Take a look at the pictures below:

The three-day party was supposed to be on a private beach on the island of Great Exuma in the Bahamas.

It was supposed to be over two weekends: April 28-30 and May 5-7.

A host of supermodels had promoted it on social media, including Hailey Baldwin, Emily Ratajkowski, and Bella Hadid.

Guests expected to party on the white sand beaches.

But when they turned up, it didn’t look anything like the advertisements.

They were told they would fly in from Miami on a custom, VIP-configured Boeing 737 …

… to have the full VIP experience.

Instead, guests ended up waiting for hours at the airport …

… and collecting their luggage from the back of a shipping container in the dead of night.

The ticket cost was meant to include gourmet food.

Guests were expecting Starr Catering Group to be there, but the group told Business Insider it terminated its services with Fyre on April 2. Instead, there were makeshift food tents.

They were given cheese sandwiches and salads.

Fans were expecting to see Blink-182 perform.

But the band dropped out before the festival started on Thursday.

Festivalgoers were promised luxury, eco-friendly domes and villas to stay in that were included in the ticket prices.

But one guest described it as a “disaster tent city.”

Some of the tents hadn’t been put up.

Instead of partying on the beach with friends …

… guests were trying to fly back to Miami.

But for some, that wasn’t possible, and they ended up stranded in the airport.

One guest said she was kept in a room without food or water, waiting for a flight to take off. She said a person fainted because the conditions were so bad.

Not exactly the VIP experience they had envisioned.
