What Our Customers Are Saying

We've used Baltic's Event Connectivity at a number of venues recently. In days gone-by, when we've needed really good internet for our conferences, we've had to sign into long term onerous contracts with national companies that took months of delivery. With Baltic, we're able to book our connectivity with instant switch-on and at a wide range of venues, simply paying a very reasonable rate for a day's hire.

Tom JohnsonLush

Being able to have switch-on/switch-off internet at the various event venues that we use around the Liverpool City Region (when we need it) aligns with how the film industry works, by offering daily, weekly flexible internet packages, and at very affordable pricing and without delays, paperwork or constant form-filling!

Sydney UrmetTasteful Films

We use Baltic's Event Connectivity at various venues throughout the year in order to broadcast our streams live to the world. We're able to rock up, plug-in and instantly access high speed high grade internet at various venues, paying only for what we use, without being tied into long term contracts that are simply not for purpose.
