Leicester event host & MC

Event host in Leicester.

A Leicester event host and master of ceremonies, from an awards ceremony at the King Power Stadium to celebrations at Stapleford Park and Winstanley House.

From the King Power Stadium to Stapleford Park.

I have hosted four events across Leicester, including an awards ceremony at the King Power Stadium, with further work at Stapleford Park, Winstanley House and The Old Inn. It is a city I know for both its black-tie evenings and its big celebrations.

I came up through television and live entertainment, so I run an awards night like a well-paced show rather than a running order read aloud. The same read of the room keeps a conference moving and a party alive, whichever kind of evening you are planning.

  • Event host, MC and awards compere for business and charity evenings
  • One host for the whole evening, not a patchwork of acts
  • A pre-event consultation as standard, so nothing is a surprise on the night

What I host in Leicester.

01

Award ceremonies

Awards nights where every name is checked, every winner gets their moment, and the room stays alive between categories, drawing on years of live television presenting.

02

Master of ceremonies

One MC for the whole evening, reading the room second by second and holding it together between every moment so nobody in the room has to.

03

Conferences & business events

Corporate hosting that keeps an agenda on time without the day feeling like a schedule, whether the audience is fifty people or five hundred.

04

Fundraising nights

Pacing the appeals and auction moments so the room stays generous, and the ask lands when the audience is warmest rather than when the running order says so.

05

Interactive game shows

Audience-led entertainment built around the people in the room, run from my own software on the big screen.

06

Parties & celebrations

Birthdays, anniversaries and celebrations hosted with pace and warmth, with the games built around your guests when you want them.

My company used Kevin’s services for our awards evening, and we were blown away with his performance! From the time of engagement Kevin was very clear and communicative, gave great advice and set clear deadlines. We will definitely be working with Kevin again.
Fahim Modak, Awards evening
Kevin hosted our staff conference event this year which was fantastic. He brought an energy and enthusiasm with him and played a really important part in getting people engaged in the day. Thank you for all your help in making this a really memorable day for Golding.
Golding Homes, Staff conference
Kevin is a fantastic host. I used him as a toastmaster for a corporate event. I booked him last minute and with minimal prep time, he managed to provide an exceptional service. He was professional and went above and beyond to ensure that our guests were engaged throughout the course of the event. I highly recommend Kevin!
