The brand finally issued a statement after influencers flooded social media with videos showing the horrible conditions at the off-site drop-off location.
Revolve said it is “sincerely” sorry for leaving influencers in the lurch at its 2022 Coachella festival over the weekend., during which attendees were forced to stay in FEMA tents despite paying ticket prices between $1,200 and $100,000.
Fashion brand Revolve issued a statement in response to its Coachella event being compared to Fyre Festival.“In anticipation of the high level of interest in attending Revolve Festival this year, Revolve worked closely with all appropriate city and safety authorities to ensure a safe and secure path for guests to access the two-day invitation-only event,” a representativeTuesday, adding that city regulations mandated the company have an “off-site location for guest check-in and parking.
The representative noted that the off-site location featured shuttle transportation as well as ride-share access but admitted the system started to falter Saturday afternoon when their event was getting full. “We always strive to provide a great experience and we promise to do better,” the spokesperson shared.“As the festival was reaching capacity late Saturday afternoon,” the statement continued, “shuttle access to the venue was limited in order to remain in compliance with safety requirements, causing longer wait times for entry and resulting in some guests not being able to attend the festival. The safety of our guests is of the utmost importance to us, and we will always make that a priority.
The lengthy explanation came after influencers took to their accounts to expose the “most unorganized event” that nearly left someone “trampled.”
