Back in 2017, Fyre festival went viral on for all the wrong reasons, for promising a luxury music event which turned out to be under-resourced and completely unprepared.

The festival creator was threatened with legal action, there was an FBI investigation, and even the threat of prison.

The Nextflix doc promises to take us through exactly what went down with various witness accounts, never-before-seen footage and talking heads.

FYRE is set for release on 19 January 2019.
