One vehicle. A whole festival's worth of entertainment.
WhatsApp Video Jukebox
Your crowd requests songs by WhatsApp; an AI DJ finds the official video, checks it's family-safe for your event rating, and queues it on the big screen.
Silent Disco
300 high-quality HiFi headsets across three colour-coded channels — two DJ'd by us, and one voted for live by the crowd from their phones. The big screen becomes the light show.
Open-Air Cinema
Licensed film screenings under the stars through a 4,000-watt Bose F1 line-array PA, on a screen you can see from the back of the field.
Karaoke Nights
Full karaoke rig with big-screen lyrics — punters book their slot from their phones and the MC calls them up.
Let Lee Entertain You
Our hosted karaoke party session — Lee takes the mic, warms up the crowd, and turns a singalong into a show. Big-screen lyrics, full PA, and a host who won't let the energy dip.
Retro Games Wall
Pac-Man five metres wide. Wireless pads, classic arcade and console games — irresistible daytime crowd-puller.
Advertising & Sponsorship
Daytime billboard mode rotates your sponsors, schedules and adverts. Whole-event branding available — your festival's colours across every mode.
Live DJ Ready
Bring your own DJ — we patch their decks straight into the headphones or the PA, and the visuals dance to their set automatically.
MC & Announcements
Multi-mic setup with one-touch routing to any channel — perfect for hosts, speeches and spoken-word events.
Runs on sunshine
TiPi is fully off-grid and charged entirely by solar — no generators, no diesel hum, no mains hook-up needed. We can even top up your crew's electric vehicles while the show runs.
