The sports channel specially designed for pubs and bars.

Staying on top of promoting football fixtures - update assets, print, assemble, take down, repeat - and building the entertainment into more than a 90-minute match requires a lot of time and energy, and we all know pub managers are busy enough.

Startle Arena brings pubs and bars a digital signage platform that’ll take care of your sports promotions, automatically updating with fresh, relevant content every day that’s customised to the pub’s location, so pub managers don’t have to lift a finger.

Promotions that manage themselves

With next-to-no management by your staff required, you can do less of the admin and more of the pint-pulling. Arena is designed to run itself, so you and your team don’t need to faff around with soggy flyers and tatty table talkers.

Display (almost) anything you want.

Our digital signage platform is an intelligent thing, and Startle Arena is just one feature of it. We know there may be other types of content you want to show in your locations, but don’t have the means to do so. With Startle’s Takeover functionality, you can use our API to schedule HTML on screens for both dynamic content or integration into external services. Show the weather, train times or news, or integrate with other entertainment systems to bring them to life on your screens, integrating seamlessly with your own content. With our highly flexible signage solution, you can do (almost) anything.

Our pubs range from community pubs to hybrid high street venues in town centres, so each of them has a unique identity and needs entertainment and offers relevant to its local environment. It is vital that our suppliers can offer each pub a bespoke package to help them drive sales and become a go to destination. Startle helps each pub to deliver their message, their way. We are delighted to use them for our music, digital signage and sports promotion.
