Newly restored company- now NFT Music Market Instead of buying the file sharing service for $245,000 in an eBay auction, it’s The New York Times Report. A separate plan to launch a new music streaming service using the Fyre Festival name is Announced in April 2025.
“Fyre became a symbol of hype, but also made history history,” Limewire CEO Julian Zehetmayr shared in a press release. “We didn’t bring back the festival – we brought the brand and memes back to life. This time with real experience, no cheese sandwiches.”
It sounds like Limewire may want to turn Fyre Festival into a physical privilege for its digital collectibles sold through the NFT marketplace. The company plans to unveil “a vision of reimagining Fyre” in the coming months, which is “transcends the digital realm and expands it into real-world experiences, communities and surprises.” At the height of its popularity, NFTs are often sold to Exclusive communities and eventsso if that was sticking limewire, it wouldn’t be a particularly primitive one.
Of course, when your company’s key strategies are clearly acquiring and reshaping old brands, creativity may not be the goal. Limewire’s bet seems to be that buying musician NFT from Limewire or attending a name recognition for Fyre Festival events and not getting stuck in the Bahamas would be enough to accommodate some people.
