Sheffield event host & MC
Event host in Sheffield.
A Sheffield event host and fundraiser compere, from a fundraiser at OEC Sheffield to a large obstacle event at Rother Valley Country Park.
From a country park obstacle event to a city fundraiser.
My Sheffield work has covered two very different rooms: a large-scale obstacle event at Rother Valley Country Park, run outdoors with hundreds of participants, and a fundraiser at OEC Sheffield, run on the more traditional format of dinner, speeches and an appeal.
Those two events need almost opposite skills, and that contrast is exactly what a live television and comedy background gives you: the pace of an outdoor family event and the restraint of a formal fundraising room, both drawn from the same twenty years of reading whatever crowd is actually in front of me.
- Event host, MC and fundraiser compere
- Comfortable at both formal dinner scale and large outdoor events
- A pre-event consultation as standard, so nothing is a surprise on the night

A client review, in their own words.
Family celebration: “Kevin organised the whole evening fantastically well. It couldn’t have been better.”
Client reviews
Kevin recently hosted a company corporate event and proved to be the consummate professional throughout the evening. With his depth of experience in the industry, Kevin kept the evening flowing superbly and has the unique ability to read a room and keep everyone happy. Kevin is a great asset to any event.
Kevin hosted our annual football Graduation Ceremony and he was truly exceptional throughout the event. He had a remarkable way of engaging with the audience making it fun for all the children and parents. He was even courageous enough to get people dancing on their feet which really added to the atmosphere of the event.
Kevin was a brilliant host for our event, incredibly well prepared including double checking pronunciations of names, turning up early to complete a dress rehearsal and helping out to run around with a card machine for charity in his breaks from hosting without prompting. Would highly recommend for any event.
