Fyre Festival, a luxurious music festival in the Bahamas, has been “fully postponed” after festival-goers reported a disorganized and chaotic event that left many guests stranded at the music site.

“After assessing the situation this morning and looking at best options for our guests, we cannot move forward as we hoped we could,” festival organizers tweeted Friday morning.

The Instagram-worthy event was organized by rapper Ja Rule and was due to feature headlining performances by Blink-182, Skepta and Rae Sremmurd.

With entry fees costing between $4,000 to $12,000, the festival was advertised on social media by models, including Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski, as a glamorous party where guests would be flown to an island purportedly once owned by infamous drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, and provided with luxurious meals and accommodation.

However, to the disappointment of the ticket holders, the festival turned out to be everything but glamorous.

When they arrived at the festival site in Exuma, guests said they found a dire, unfinished campsite. They described their “luxury” accommodations as disaster relief tents, many still un-built. Baggage arrived in a shipping container. For dinner, they were served bread, cold cuts, cheese slices, and a side salad in a styrofoam box. Some also took to social media to express their frustrations, including a reported lack of beer.

Marquee names such as Pusha T, Major Lazer, Disclosure, and Migos were scheduled to play. However, in the weeks leading up to the festival date, organizers allegedly missed payment deadlines to artists and were scrambling to pay the acts in full, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal.After hearing reports of the lack of organization, Blink-182 cancelled their performance on Thursday.

“We’re not confident that we would have what we need to give you the quality of performances we always give our fans,” the band stated in a tweet.

The event, which was supposed to last two weekends, was eventually cancelled by organizers on Friday. Those in attendance had reported delayed flights leaving, among other complaints.

“We are extremely disappointed in the way the events unfolded yesterday with the Fyre Festival,” the Bahamian government tweeted.

Festival organizers are currently in the process of flying their guests back home.

“At this time, we are working tirelessly to get flights scheduled and get all travelers home safely,” they said.

It is still unclear whether or not tickets for the event will be refunded.

The festival promised “the culture experience of the decade” in a tropical wonderland of yachts, villas, and gourmet cuisine. Ticket prices went into five-figures for special VIP treatment, though general admission packages were available starting from $1,200.

Blink-182 cancelled just before the event, citing concerns the band wouldn’t “have what we need” to give a quality performance.

The event was organized by rapper Ja Rule and entrepreneur Billy McFarland, who is also the founder and chief executive of Magnises, a social club for “elite” millennials. According to a report by Business Insider, some members of that enterprise claimed last-minute trip cancellations, scheduling failures, and unwanted charges on their cards.

The festival’s namesake is Fyre Media, a talent-booking startup founded by the Ja Rule and McFarland in 2015. After hours of silence, the rapper responded to the festival’s failure on Friday on Twitter, stating: ““We are working right now on getting everyone [off] the island SAFE that is my immediate concern,” he wrote. “I will make a statement soon. I’m heartbroken at this moment, my partners and I wanted this to be an amazing event. It was NOT A SCAM as everyone is reporting. I don’t know how everything went so left but I’m working to make it right by making sure everyone is refunded… I truly apologize as this is NOT MY FAULT … but I’m taking responsibility. I’m deeply sorry to everyone who was inconvenienced by this.”

According to Dylan Caccamesi, who paid about $1,200 to attend, organizers asked those seeking refunds to write their names, email addresses, and phone numbers on pieces of computer paper. He signed the paper in the hope that it would help guarantee a refund. “I’m not sure what the intent was,” the 22-year-old from New Jersey said in a phone interview from the Bahamas. “We still have to get a hold of them.”

Caccamesi said an email was also sent by the festival promising a refund, citing unforeseen circumstances, but detailed information has yet to be provided.

“I haven’t been on a vacation in a while. I was like, ‘I’ll be living luxurious!’ It was supposed to be good for like, high class youth. A higher expectations festival,” he said.

If he doesn’t receive a refund, Caccamesi doesn’t anticipate he’ll go the legal route. Instead, he plans to lobby his banking provider to issue a chargeback. However, he added that among the well-heeled festival attendees, “there has been talk of a class action.”

In the meantime Caccamesi is trying to make the best of a bad situation. “We have no idea what’s going on,” he said. “We’re just sitting on the beach getting wasted.”
