Starlink Rental for Events & Livestreams

Yes. A 1080p stream needs roughly 5–8 Mbps of upload. Starlink typically delivers well above that with a clear view of the sky, and our rental plans are enterprise-priority, so your traffic is not deprioritized when a crowded venue saturates the network. For broadcast-grade productions we add a second Starlink or a bonded cellular failover.

$350 per week for the complete kit, plus $75 round-trip shipping anywhere in the continental US. Multi-week and multi-kit pricing is available.

Kits ship the next business day after your contract is signed. Tell us your setup date and we will build the shipping timeline around it, choosing ground or expedited so the kit arrives before you need it, with a return label for the trip back.

The dish needs a clear view of the sky. A tripod placed outside near a window, on a patio, or on a roof works well, and the included cable run reaches back inside to the router. Heavy tree cover directly overhead causes dropouts, so we will look at photos of your site and tell you honestly whether Starlink or bonded cellular is the safer choice.

Each kit includes 50 GB of priority data per week, which covers a full day of HD streaming with plenty left over for phones and vendor devices. Need more? Additional data is $50 per extra 50 GB block, so a multi-day or 24/7 broadcast is easy to size up.

No. The kit arrives preconfigured. Open the tripod, seat the Starlink Mini on the mount, plug in power, connect your phone to the printed Wi‑Fi network, and follow the Starlink app’s Alignment tool to point it. Most people are online in about 10 minutes, and our tech support line answers during setup and show hours.

Neither. The free Starlink app’s local setup and alignment tools work without an account, and the unit is preconfigured, so you never sign in or touch settings. Nobody from PivotXP needs to be on site; we support you by phone.

The Mini’s built-in Wi‑Fi covers the area around the dish. To reach a second building or a spread-out property, add one or two outdoor access points. They ship preconfigured and labeled, we mark the placements on your site map, and you set them up yourself in the same few minutes as the dish. No staff required.

Yes. Planners, caterers, DJs, and photographers rent the kit for vendor Wi‑Fi on estates, farms, and tented sites where there is no house internet. Send the date, the address, and a site map or photos and you will have a quote the same day.

A shipped kit is supported remotely: our team can see the unit, the field guide covers the common fixes, and the support line answers during setup and show hours. Most issues are a re-aim, a cable, or a power cycle and take minutes. For staffed programs, such as multi-zone footprints with a PivotXP tech booked, the tech is on site.

Yes, tailgates are one of the most common rentals. Open sky is easy in a lot, and the kit runs off a small generator or a portable power station, about 40 watts. A full game in HD uses roughly 3 to 5 GB, well inside the plan, with plenty left for everyone's phones. Set the tripod up next to the tent, weigh it down, and you are streaming in about 10 minutes.

Anywhere in the United States. Recent rentals have gone to San Francisco, Milpitas, Phoenix, Dallas, Baltimore, Nashville, and Detroit. Canadian and international events need a US forwarding address for the kit.

Yes. We regularly ship two- and three-kit orders for multi-zone footprints and pair Starlink with dual-carrier cellular failover when a stream cannot drop for any reason.
