Is Sky TV Right for my business?

Showing Sky TV in a public place, such as a pub, family fun centre, or restaurant, (as opposed to Freeview) can offer several advantages. Here are some of the benefits of using Sky TV in these settings:

  1. Diverse Programming: Sky TV offers a wide range of channels, including sports, entertainment, childrens entertainment, news, and music channels. This diversity allows public places to cater to a broader audience with varying interests, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
  2. Exclusive Content: Sky has exclusive broadcasting rights to various sports events, including Premier League football, major golf tournaments, and more. This exclusive content can draw sports enthusiasts and fans to your establishment. Sky for Business is also the only legal way to show premium childrens and music channels such as Nickelodeon™ or MTV™.
  3. High-Quality Picture and Sound: Sky TV typically provides higher picture and sound quality compared to Freeview, enhancing the viewing experience for customers.
  4. Live Sports Coverage: If your establishment aims to attract sports fans, Sky TV offers extensive live sports coverage, including major leagues and tournaments. This can make your venue a preferred choice for watching sports events. (Pricing subject to alcohol license criteria).
  5. Flexibility: Sky TV allows businesses to customise their channel packages, enabling you to tailor the programming to your specific target audience and needs.
  6. Premium Content: Many popular TV shows, series, and documentaries are available on Sky TV. This can attract customers and help customers stay longer when you show their favorite shows* or other Sky content.
