Top Emcees In Singapore [UPDATED 2024]

Top-Emcees-in-Singapore

I’m sure you’ve done at least one of the following:

I attended a wedding. Passed by a roadshow during the weekends. Dressed like a pirate or whatever the trending costume fads are during your company’s dinner and dance.

You probably wonder why you felt so at ease after hearing that soothing voice. It’s like you’ve zipped off to a celestial paradise, with smiling angels playing the harps everywhere.

You probably wonder what drew you to grab that freebie by the roadshow despite being in 35-degree weather together with several pushy, kiasu Singaporeans.

You probably wonder why you laughed so hard after witnessing your friend struggle to win a game on stage.

The reason is simple – You were charmed and moved by a very exceptional emcee.

Is it worth hiring one? Can’t I just get the loudest person in my department to host? 

There are many benefits of hiring an emcee other than their presumed ability to shout, “let’s get this party started!”, which by the way, isn’t an official catchphrase of emcees. Much like “Put the shrimp on the Barbie!” isn’t an official catchphrase of Australians.

Not only will a good emcee/MC/compère/host/master of ceremonies give you an unforgettable event. He/she can change the image of your company. He/she can even change your life – Yes.

So what makes it so necessary to hire an emcee? Let’s find out!

A good emcee can make you feel special.

A phenomenal event host proves that people who talk a lot make good listeners. They make good observers too.

The emcee’s job isn’t done just through linguistic gymnastics. Through superior people-reading skills, the emcee can deliver the very comment that lights up a spark in your eyes.

For those ROI-obsessed folks, here’s how making someone special measures up practically. The feeling of being special can bring up someone’s self-esteem. With healthy self-esteem, one can be more confident and productive in life.

“I wouldn’t have the initiative and confidence to pursue my hidden ambition if the emcee didn’t make a note about my napkin doodles.” Sean, who works for an animation firm in One North recalls.

A skilled emcee fosters team building and unites people.

In the age where office politics and social divides seem to linger in our midst, a good event host can make the late Martin Luther King Jr. proud.

2 individuals who probably will never speak to each other in real life can share the heartiest laugh together, thanks to the polished manoeuvres of a master of ceremony. Differences can be resolved. Strangers can become friends.

A vital accessory to your sales team. 

I know what you’re thinking.

Why don’t we get one of our staff to host our product launch?

Why bother hiring an outsider? 

An adept master of ceremony provides a fresh pair of eyes for the company. He/she isn’t attached to the product/service and will not bore everyone with technical details. He/she is a gifted storyteller who has the verbal magic to whet your audience’s appetite.

Besides, your sales force will be busy closing deals after everyone’s appetite is whetted.

How much does an emcee charge? 

This is a tricky question. Emcee charges vary from event to event, people to people.

A general rule of thumb – Roadshows usually charge by the hour. In contrast, large scale corporate events usually charge by the day. Dinner and dance events charge by night; however, there would usually be a surcharge after midnight.

A very proactive roadshow emcee who has the stamina to talk and interact with random people for 4 hours can charge up to $150-$300 an hour. Most roadshow emcees regardless of experience, will stay away from gigs that quotes them less than $100 an hour.

Corporate events such as conferences usually start from $1,000-$2,000 a day. However, experienced emcees, especially those with celebrity status, can charge a few times more for the same event.

A standard dinner and dance emcee package will range from $500-$1,000 a night, excluding the midnight surcharge. Of course, this sum is expected to increase when the emcee is a celebrity.

There are no hard and fast rules for prices, as many emcees may also come with other talents such as singing, magic performing or DJ-ing. You can always negotiate with them for a bundle deal. Additionally, bear in mind that there would be a peak period price during festive occasions such as Christmas and Chinese New Year.

With that being said, you can also contact the companies on our curated events company list to check if they have an event planning cum emcee bundle deal.

Review 1 “Amazing and energetic host who kept the energy high while filming Asia’s Got Talent. Without his game segment, the filming would have been pretty boring!”
Review 2 “Awesome emcee… professional yet very humble…”
Review 3 “Love how Wayne engaged with the crowd, especially with my client right before the event.

Confident, eye-catching, humorous, and always alert!

With him as an emcee for my show, I need not be worried about hiccups or awkwardness during the event. He’s always chirpy, entertaining and welcoming. Engaging even the most reluctant crowd could get hyped up for the event.

Review 1 “We have worked with William for 3 events consecutively and he and his team had done a fantastic job to make the events a successful one. They are very proactive, creative and pay attention to details.

They also never fail to surprise the team, especially with the talented emcee, William, who is capable to always blend in with the theme and entertain our guests all night long.

The only feedback from the floor is that they can’t even leave their chairs for a second because they do not want to miss every second of William’s company.”~ LY Soo, Chairperson – Kimberly Clark – Sales Conference Gala Dinner

Review 2 “William was extremely professional and got our guests all revved up to herald the start of our wedding.

With that, the atmosphere and energy from the audience was high and energetic – our bridesmaids could hear the applause and cheers as they stood outside the closed ballroom doors (to prepare for march-in) and commented “Inside the ballroom, atmosphere very high!”

William was fluent, humorous, and engaged the audience throughout our wedding. He not only covered English and Mandarin fluently, but even Malay for our Malay guests.

He and his team helped us create Kahoot! quiz questions and they were creative and funny – we heard lots of raucous laughter and our guests posted about the Kahoot on IG stories. Our parents and friends truly enjoyed and loved his emcee-ing too!

He even went the extra mile to help us facilitate our Chinese Tea Ceremony when we needed some help with it.

He makes things happen and did a late-night Zoom call even when he had an early flight to catch the next morning, when there was no other common time slot with the rest of our core planning team.

We are thankful to William and his team for putting in so much effort, time, and heart – for looking into the little details just to ensure the wedding runs smoothly and well. Thanks for making our wedding a most memorable, joyful, and exciting one!

Thanks for helping us with the planning, engaging our guests, and for the humorous and heart-warming moments created! – Yu Tian & Meiyan, Wedding Reception @ Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre

Review 1 “We engaged Choy Ting to emcee our wedding dinner at Conrad Glass Pavilion and it has been a great one! There were a few hiccups throughout such as minor AV video playback issue but Choy Ting was very experienced and quick witted enough to turn around these several times and managed to pull back the atmosphere and mood of all my guests! Kudos to her quick thinking on the spot during the entire dinner! She also obliged to my request and sang us a song. She’s very on the ball! At the end of the dinner, guests’ feedback about Choy Ting emcee was great and amazing! She’s full of energy and her voice is filled with power. I made a right choice to engage her emcee service and stick to my belief that I made the right choice!”

25 Frequent Q&A About Emcee in Singapore

Whether you’re planning a corporate event, a wedding or a private party, a professional emcee can make all the difference.

To help you find the perfect emcee in Singapore, we’ve compiled a list of 25 frequent questions and answers. From understanding the emcee’s role to making an informed decision when hiring, we’ve got you covered. Let’s dive in!

What does an emcee do?

An emcee (short for “master of ceremonies”) is responsible for hosting and managing an event, ensuring it runs smoothly and efficiently. They introduce speakers or performers, keep the audience engaged and entertained, and make announcements as necessary.

Why should I hire a professional emcee?

A professional emcee has the experience, charisma, and skill to keep an event running smoothly, engaging the audience and ensuring everyone has a good time. This can make a significant difference to the success and overall feel of your event.

What should I look for in an emcee?

When hiring an emcee, consider their experience, adaptability, and style. It’s essential to find someone who can effectively engage your audience and adjust their approach depending on the event’s tone and purpose.

How much experience should an emcee have?
Experience is crucial, but it can vary depending on the specific requirements of your event. Ideally, look for an emcee with a solid track record of successfully hosting similar events.

Can I request a demo or sample of their work?
Yes, it’s always a good idea to request a demo, sample, or even watch a live performance. This allows you to assess their style, charisma, and ability to engage an audience.

How do I find the right emcee for my event?
Research is key. Look for recommendations, read reviews, and check out their online presence. Attend local events featuring emcees to get a feel for their style and ability in person.

How much does it cost to hire an emcee in Singapore?
The cost can vary depending on factors such as the emcee’s experience, the event’s duration, and any additional services required. It’s best to discuss your budget and requirements with potential candidates to ensure you find the right fit.

What additional services can an emcee provide?
Some emcees offer additional services such as DJing, event planning, or providing sound equipment. Be sure to discuss your event’s specific needs to determine whether additional services are required.

Is it necessary to meet with the emcee before the event?
Although not always required, meeting with the emcee beforehand allows you to discuss your expectations, preferences, and any special requests. It also helps establish rapport and ensures a smoother event experience.

Can I provide a script for the emcee to follow?
Yes, you can provide a script or outline for the emcee to follow. However, keep in mind that experienced emcees may prefer to work with a general outline rather than a rigid script, allowing them to adapt to the event’s flow and engage the audience more effectively.

How can I ensure the emcee understands my event’s purpose and tone?
Communication is vital. Be sure to discuss your event’s objectives, desired tone, and any specific requirements with the emcee beforehand. Providing examples or references can also help convey your vision more clearly.

What if the emcee is not available on my event date?
If your preferred emcee is unavailable on your event date, consider asking for recommendations or referrals. They may know other talented emcees who can meet your needs.

How far in advance should I book an emcee?
It’s advisable to book an emcee at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if you have a specific individual in mind. This ensures that you have enough time to secure their services and plan the event accordingly.

What information should I provide to the emcee?
Provide the emcee with essential details such as the event date, time, location, purpose, and expected audience size. Additionally, share any special requests, themes, or specific segments that you want the emcee to cover during the event.

How can I ensure the emcee is well-prepared for my event?
Regular communication is key. Check in with the emcee in the weeks leading up to the event to discuss any updates, changes, or last-minute details. Make sure they have a clear understanding of the event’s purpose, tone, and audience.

What kind of attire should the emcee wear?
The emcee’s attire should match the event’s tone and formality. Discuss your preferences and any dress code requirements with the emcee beforehand to ensure they dress appropriately.

What if the emcee falls ill or has an emergency on the day of the event?
It’s essential to have a backup plan in case of emergencies. Discuss this possibility with the emcee in advance and ask if they can recommend a substitute or colleague who can step in if needed.

How do I know if the emcee is suitable for my audience?
Consider the emcee’s past experience, style, and ability to adapt to different audiences. Request references or testimonials from previous clients, and watch live performances or demos to get a better idea of how they interact with different audience types.

How can I give feedback to the emcee?
Provide constructive feedback to the emcee after the event, highlighting areas where they excelled and areas for improvement. Honest and open communication is vital for maintaining a strong working relationship.

How can I negotiate the emcee’s fees?
Be upfront about your budget and discuss any flexibility the emcee may have regarding their fees. Remember, it’s essential to strike a balance between cost and quality to ensure you get the best value for your investment.

Do I need to provide a meal for the emcee?
It’s customary to provide a meal for the emcee, especially if the event lasts several hours. Discuss any dietary preferences or restrictions with the emcee in advance.

How do I ensure the emcee arrives on time?
Clearly communicate the event’s start time and request that the emcee arrives early to set up and prepare. You may also want to confirm their arrival time in the days leading up to the event.

Do I need to provide any equipment for the emcee?
Emcees typically require a microphone, sound system, and potentially a lectern or stage. Discuss your event’s specific equipment needs with the emcee to ensure everything is in place for a successful performance.

Can the emcee handle last-minute changes or issues during the event?
An experienced emcee should be able to adapt to unforeseen changes or issues that arise during the event. However, it’s crucial to communicate any last-minute changes as soon as possible, allowing the emcee to adjust their performance accordingly.

How do I know if I’ve chosen the right emcee for my event?
Ultimately, the right emcee for your event is someone who understands your vision, engages your audience, and ensures a smooth, memorable experience. Trust your instincts, and remember that communication and preparation are key to a successful partnership with your emcee.
