"The new Fyre festival": Fans slam BravoCon 2022 as chaos erupts on Day 1 after attendees rush towards stage during RHOBH panel

Day one of Bravo's three-day reality TV event, BravoCon, wasn't all smooth, as chaos erupted ahead of the RHOBH panel on October 14.RHOBH, which was supposedly one of the first panels at the event, had many fans waiting in line for a long time in the hopes of securing a good seat. However, trouble ensued when fans became restless.Merely 20 minutes before the show's stars Crystal Kung Minkoff, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Garcelle Beauvais, Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, and Sutton Stracke arrived on stage, fans lost control and pushed past security. They left their places in line and rushed towards the stage, knocking down barriers and causing a stampede.A video of fans running away from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills panel at BravoCon was taken as chaos erupted inside the Javits Center in New York City, where the event was being held. Upon witnessing what happened on Day 1 of BravoCon, many fans likened the mismanagement to the kind seen at The Fyre Festival in 2017.
