Funeral live streaming in SydneyWhen distance shouldn’t mean missing goodbye.

A sister in London. An uncle in Cebu. A closest friend in a Campbelltown nursing home. For over a decade we have done one thing for Sydney families: close that gap, so the people who matter are included in a moment they can never get back.

Why us

Sydney’s dedicated funeral live streaming specialists.

A lot of companies that stream funerals also stream auctions, rodeos and corporate conferences. For them a funeral is another job on the calendar. We work only in the funeral and memorial space.

We know the venues

We know Rookwood’s layout and we have worked at Northern Suburbs Memorial Gardens dozens of times. A Catholic mass off Pennant Hills Road flows differently to a humanist service in Parramatta, and we plan for that.

Directors keep recommending us

Over ten years of doing only this work is why Sydney funeral directors keep sending families our way. We coordinate with your director so you are never the go-between.

Our own connectivity

We bring at least three independent mobile connections and combine them. We are never reliant on venue Wi-Fi, in a church, a chapel or at a graveside.

Who it’s for

Who funeral live streaming is for.

It is not niche. It is for almost every family planning a service in Sydney right now.

Relatives overseas or interstate

A son in the UK with no leave left, a daughter in the US who only found out yesterday. We get the stream up so they can watch in real time and feel part of it.

Sydney’s multicultural communities

Chinese Buddhist services in Burwood watched from Guangzhou. Lebanese church services in Lakemba for family in Beirut. Greek Orthodox in Marrickville, Hindu ceremonies in Parramatta. Every tradition has its own rhythm and we know them.

Elderly and mobility-restricted mourners

A hip replacement, a heart condition, no one to drive. We set them up with a private link on a tablet or smart TV so they can watch from their lounge room or care facility.

Smaller services and limited-capacity venues

Keep the room exactly as intimate as you want it, while still including everyone who could not get a seat.

How it works

No complicated process. No technical meetings.

  1. 01

    You call us, any time

    Day or night, we pick up. We ask about the date, venue, length and anything specific you want captured, and we work directly with your funeral director.

  2. 02

    We sort everything in advance

    We check the venue, confirm connectivity, plan camera positions and prepare your private link, sent early so family can test it before the service starts.

  3. 03

    We arrive early and set up quietly

    Our crew is there before anyone else. By the time guests arrive we are already invisible. The technology should never be the thing people notice.

  4. 04

    The service runs. Everyone watches.

    When the celebrant begins, so does the stream. Family anywhere in the world opens the private link for clean picture, clear audio and every moment in real time.

  5. 05

    The recording stays with you

    Within a few hours the full recording is available on the same link, accessible for up to twelve months, with a downloadable HD copy.

What’s included

No hidden extras. No surprises at invoice time.

The setup is thorough, the equipment is professional, and we have tested all of it before we walk in the door.

  • Three or more professional cameras covering multiple angles
  • Wireless microphones on the celebrant for genuinely clear audio
  • A secure private link, not public and not searchable
  • Our own combined 4G and 5G internet, never reliant on venue Wi-Fi
  • Tribute slideshows and photo memorials integrated into the stream
  • Full HD recording online for twelve months, plus a downloadable copy
  • Complete on-site coordination with your funeral director
  • Coverage anywhere in Sydney: church, chapel, graveside, crematorium, home or park

Every setting

Every service type, every setting.

Church and chapel services

Catholic, Anglican, Orthodox or non-denominational. We work within the space and the tradition, from Strathfield to Mosman.

Graveside and burial

Rookwood, Northern Suburbs Memorial Gardens, Woronora, Pinegrove. We carry our own power and connectivity to every outdoor location.

Cremation services

We cover all major Sydney crematoriums, capturing the service fully from start to finish.

Memorial services

A week later or a month later, in a hall or a family home, with the same professional treatment as the funeral itself.

Outdoor and beach services

A clifftop in the Northern Beaches, a harbour park in Balmain. The view is stunning and the stream stays solid.

Home services

Intimate and quiet. We set up without disrupting the space, and we know when to be still.

Who we work with

The funeral directors and venues we work with.

Most families book us through their funeral director. We stream services for 54 Sydney funeral directors, at the city’s crematoria and cemetery chapels and in 34 churches. If your funeral director is not listed, ask them to call us. We stream services anywhere in Sydney.

“The streaming of my dad’s memorial was seamless, it was watched live in Japan and other national locations. Ned was great on the day and the recording was ready within hours to share to those not able to attend or to rewatch at any time. Andrew and his team were considerate, respectful and professional at all times.”

“My sister was stuck in London with no way to get back in time. Stream Catcher set everything up at the church on Old Canterbury Road, and she watched the whole service on her laptop. She rang me after and said it felt like she was sitting right next to me.”
Maria T.Dulwich Hill
“We had relatives in the Philippines who could not get visas sorted quickly enough. The stream was perfect. My cousins in Manila lit candles and watched it together. The recording is something we still go back to.”
The Santos FamilyBlacktown
“Dad’s service was at Rookwood. We had family watching from Queensland, New Zealand and Ireland simultaneously. Nothing went wrong. The recording has become something we genuinely treasure.”

We film the service in HD and broadcast it over the internet in real time. You receive a private link to share with family and friends. They open it on a phone, tablet, laptop or smart TV and watch the service as it happens, from anywhere in the world.

If they can’t be there in person, they can still be there.

Ten years of this work taught us one thing above everything else. Families do not regret having a live stream, they regret not having one. Tell us your date, your venue, and who you are trying to reach.
