Derived from the abbreviation M.C. or “Master of Ceremonies,” which also implies ‘move the crowd,’ an emcee is a person who acts as host at events to inspire people with a well-written, crisply-delivered, and clear and concise presentation. A professional emcee sets an upbeat and fun tone for an event. These professionals know the art of connecting with an audience, keeping their attention, and keeping them entertained.
Whatever the type of audience and type of event, emcees know how to adapt their performance style to ensure the audience enjoys their presentation. The main task of an emcee is to keep your event moving along by entertaining and engaging the audience. Emcees have the gift of gab. They are especially helpful in making sure the audience is awake and enjoying themselves. By booking a pro, it helps keep everything on schedule and the emcee adds life to an event.
A comedic emcee can do it all with humour. By using humour in a tasteful way, people laugh and they feel good about being at the event. A good emcee can customize a presentation to ensure all main event points are emphasized. We have a great list of emcees to fit your particular event needs.
