Both Netflix and Hulu offer different documentaries providing insider knowledge about the infamous 2017 Fyre Festival in the Bahamas. Organized by Billy McFarland and sporting Ja Rule as the face of the event, Fyre Festival was supposed to be a luxury concert weekend experience, attracting many millennials who paid thousands of dollars. What it ended up being was a viral sensation when hundreds of people expecting to party with celebrities on an island in the Bahamas showed up to an event in complete disarray.
The Netflix doc, “Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Happened,” gives you a deeper look inside the promo video that made Fyre Festival go viral. The Hulu doc, “Fyre Fraud,” gives a deeper look into McFarland’s past. Both are strong documentaries and come at the topic at different angles. You will be thankful you are watching the disaster unfold from the comfort of your home instead of one of the thousands of people who wasted their hard-earned money on a fraudulent music festival that did not deliver on its promises!
