Everything between your event and the internet.
We handle the whole chain: getting a fast link into the site, spreading it across the ground as Wi-Fi, and keeping it running while the event is on. Pick the pieces you need or hand us the lot.
Where we turn up
Every one of these has the same three needs underneath: take payments, run the show, and stream or share it. If yours isn't listed, it almost certainly still fits.

Getting internet to the site
Satellite links
Starlink-based connections that work in a paddock, a valley or a coastal reserve with no mobile coverage at all. Multiple dishes bonded for bigger events.
Anywhere in NZCellular links
Business-grade 4G and 5G routers with external antennas, using more than one carrier so a busy tower doesn't take the event down with it.
Fast to deployFibre and venue connections
Where a venue has fibre, we make it do the job: proper routing, separate networks for staff and public, and a backup link in case it drops.
Venues and stadiumsFailover and bonding
Two or three links combined so a single outage is invisible. Standard on every job where payments or streaming are involved.
No single point of failureSpreading it across the ground
Site-wide Wi-Fi
Weatherproof access points on poles, trusses and tents, planned from a coverage survey so the gates, bars and stage all get a strong signal.
Outdoor and indoorPoint-to-point links
Wireless bridges that carry the connection hundreds of metres across a site without trenching a single cable.
Large sitesPayments and ticketing networks
A protected network just for EFTPOS terminals and scanners, kept separate from public Wi-Fi so a full crowd can't slow a sale.
Priority trafficPublic and sponsor Wi-Fi
Branded login pages, fair-use limits per person, and the option to collect opt-in emails for your next event.
BrandedKeeping it running
Streaming-grade connections
Dedicated upload bandwidth for your broadcast team or livestream, tested with your encoder before you go live.
Guaranteed uploadOn-site technician
Someone from FestiFi on the ground for the duration, watching the network and fixing problems before you hear about them.
Multi-day eventsRemote monitoring
For smaller events we monitor from our end and are a phone call away if anything looks off.
Smaller eventsPermanent installs
Not an event? We also build permanent point-to-point links and property-wide Wi-Fi for farms, holiday parks and rural businesses. Rural and site connectivity has the details.
Farms, parks, propertiesPortable kits you own
If you run the same kind of event repeatedly, we build you a plug-in kit and a plain-English manual so your own team can run it. See the Volleyball NZ case study.
