Everything your PA system broadcasts, streamed live to your audience's phones. Spectators at the edges of the venue, on boats, on balconies, or in nearby parks can tune in and hear the show in real time.
A great PA system only reaches so far. Live audio streaming puts the show in the hands of every spectator, no matter where they are standing.
PA systems have physical limits. Spectators at the far end of the flight line, on boats offshore, on rooftops, or in parks just outside the venue often miss the narration entirely. The audio stream puts it directly in their hands via their phone, so no one is left guessing what just happened in the sky.
Every remote listener hears the same sponsor mentions, performer introductions, and branded announcements as the on-site crowd. This is a measurable expansion of what the show delivers to its sponsors, with no additional production effort required.
The stream can be gated behind a ticket purchase for a new source of show income. Or it can be offered freely to maximize audience size and sponsor exposure. The setup is configurable to match your show's business model.
Some shows already partner with a video broadcast team. Live PA audio streaming serves a completely different audience.
A video broadcast partner provides cameras, produced programming, and performer interviews for people watching from home. That is a real service. But on-site spectators are not watching a screen. They are watching the sky. They want to hear the announcer calling the action in front of them, not cut away to a produced segment.
Live PA audio streaming and video broadcast address two distinct groups. One serves the remote viewer at home. The other serves the spectator who drove to the show and is standing at the fence. These services can run simultaneously without any conflict.
The audio stream runs directly from the PA system feed. There is no additional talent, no cameras, and no coordination required from your existing broadcast partner. Setup and operation are handled end to end by Airshow Technologies.
Everything needed to stream your PA audio live, handled from start to finish.
Turnkey live audio streaming of everything the PA system broadcasts. Full production managed end to end: audio capture, encoding, streaming infrastructure, and securing reliable wired and wireless network connectivity on-site.
The stream can be embedded directly in your show's website. A dedicated mobile app lets listeners keep the audio playing even with their phone screen locked. Any smartphone, tablet, or computer can tune in without installing anything.
All music licensing obligations handled on behalf of the show: BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, and the per-listener SoundExchange webcast fees required for internet broadcasts. SoundExchange fees are billed separately based on actual listenership.
