Types of event hosts for hire we supply
Event hosts for hire, desk, door and floor.
Book one role or build a front-of-house team on a single booking, briefed once and managed on the day.
Larger teams come with a host team leader who is your single point of contact.
Conference hosts and hostesses
Welcome desks, registration support, session doors and speaker escorts on a programme day. For the full organiser-side team, see our conference staff.
Exhibition stand hosts
Hosts greet visitors on the stand, keep the meeting-room diary and bring qualified prospects to your sales team. Larger stand teams sit with our exhibition staff.
Corporate and awards hosts
Arrivals, seating plans and guest care at awards nights, launches and client days. For the whole occasion, see our corporate event staff.
VIP and lounge hosts
Hosts meet VIPs and sponsors on arrival, escort them to lounges, boxes or seats and keep them informed through the day, discreetly.
Welcome and arrival hosts
The first faces at the door: guest list checks, directions and queue management at venue entrances, hotels and airport arrivals. Arrivals booked as a role on their own sit with our meet and greet staff.
Host team leaders
On larger teams one lead runs the hosts, manages breaks and handovers, and works with your operations team and the venue from doors to close.
How our host agency briefs and trains every host
Briefed like part of your team.
Right to work and ID checked for every host. Employer's and Public Liability cover on each booking. DBS checks and alcohol licensing on request.
Hosts learn your agenda, speakers, VIPs, venue layout and the questions guests will ask, from a briefing document built on your form. Training sessions are available for larger programmes.
We pay every host through our PAYE, handle National Insurance and HR in-house, and set out the whole booking on one itemised quote.
Reminders before each shift, geo-tagged check-ins on arrival and a 24/7 support line answered day and night.
How our hosting agency matches hosts to your guests
A hosting agency that picks hosts for how they handle people.
An event host is the person guests remember: the one who found their name without fuss, knew which room the keynote was in and had an answer when the schedule changed. Good hosting is mostly preparation, which is why we brief every host on your event before the first guest arrives.
We choose hosts for experience and how they handle people, whatever their gender, and match them to your audience and dress code. We supply the front-of-house team; security stays with your venue and food service with your caterer.
We supply event hosts nationwide across the UK
Wherever your guests arrive.
Teams come from the staffing hub nearest your venue, across 40 hubs in the UK. Hosting somewhere not listed here? Tell us in your quote request.
Our host agency compliance checks
Insured and ready.

What organisers ask our hosting agency
Hosting, booking and cover: your questions.
What does a host agency do?
A host agency finds, checks and briefs event hosts and hostesses, then manages them on the day. We match hosts to your guests and dress code, brief them on your agenda and VIPs, pay them through our PAYE and give you one point of contact, so you get a front-of-house team without recruiting one.
What is an event host and what do they do?
An event host is the person who looks after your guests from arrival to departure. That means checking names against the guest list, issuing badges or wristbands, giving directions, answering questions and keeping VIPs and speakers where they need to be. On a stand, hosts greet visitors and hand them to your sales team.
What's the difference between a host and a brand ambassador?
A host looks after guests who are already coming to your event. A brand ambassador creates interest in a product, in store, at an activation or in public. For that, see our brand ambassadors.
Are you a hostess or model agency?
We're a hostess agency for events, not a model agency: our hosts are booked for their experience and briefing rather than their looks. If your brief is promotional models for a launch or a stand, our promotional models page covers it.
Do you supply compères or MCs?
No. Our hosts look after your guests front of house, from the welcome desk to the VIP lounge. For someone to present on stage, a speaker or entertainment agency is the right booking.
How do I hire an event host?
Tell us the venue, dates, hours, the host roles and the dress code, through the quote form or on the phone. We send an itemised quote, then match hosts from the hub nearest your venue and brief them before the day.
Can you supply hosts at short notice?
Often, yes. Late requests are welcome, and every extra day of notice widens the pool we match from, which matters most for larger teams.
How much does it cost to hire event hosts?
The number of hosts, the roles, hours and start times, the city and the number of days. Every quote is itemised, so you see each host and shift before you confirm.
How many hosts can you supply?
Host staffing runs from one host for a morning to a team of 100 or more, drawn from 6,000+ registered staff. Multi-venue and multi-city runs stay one booking with one point of contact.
Where in the UK can you supply event hosts?
Anywhere in the UK, we operate nationwide, from 40 staffing hubs, with hosts drawn from the hub nearest your venue. For London venues, see our dedicated event hosts in London page.
