Fyre Festival ripped off tons of people. From misled investors to rich millennials, down to the hardworking locals that prepped the grounds for no pay. In the wake of the Fyre documentaries, we’re still learning about all the fraudulent activity and downright shady business that went on.

Villa Italian Kitchen’s description of the “Festival Pyzza” specialty is on point. It’s “a new luxury pizza experience exclusively for the wealthiest consumers and industry influencers!”
