Person puts on music festival in the Bahamas. Pays lots of "influencers" to market it on Instagram. People buy tickets for $1500 - $12,000 a pop for luxury tents and catered food. Ends up with something looking like a refugee camp and the top quality food is a cheese butty thrown together in a polystyrene box.
Had not to feel a little sorry for a bunch of kids who seem to have just been ripped off, but a bunch of trust fund idiots finding themselves in the Hunger Games seems to have its own schaudenfraude.
