Host & Emcee

Joel has the unique ability to be a Host AND an Emcee. What's the difference, you ask? Mostly spelling...
He's been at it for over 20 years hosting on TV, live corporate events, huge galas and even Drag Queen Bingo.
In short: There's not a lot he hasn't brought his sense of humor and event professionalism to.
LIVE CORPORATE EVENTS

ON-CAMERA HOST
Joel has been THE Master of Ceremonies for over 20 years. He has entertained in front of cameras and groups of people ranging from 30 to 30,000. He's been the mouthpiece for awards galas, corporate events, live auctions, game shows - both live and recorded, team-building events, Drag Queen Bingo, Opening Ceremonies, a variety of charity events and anywhere else you need someone to get people excited and having fun in a professional but always energetic manner! From a basement in Vienna to the rooftops of Los Angeles, from a private vessel in the South China Sea to the beaches of Florida, there isn’t a venue, a crowd or an event that Joel hasn’t seen...and rocked!
"I’ve had the opportunity of working with Joel on many occasions and every time he delivers. Even on the most challenging of jobs, with the toughest of rooms, he rises to the challenge every time, somehow finding a way to create bonds between guests that were formally not there. He adds life to every venue and can take the driest of conferences, turning it into a vibrant cocktail party even without the cocktails. He manages to get all engaged with his approachable and friendly style, a quality most of his contemporaries lack in their method. We have had Joel do demanding multi-day events with us and  even if he is exhausted,  we would never know; his talents as a host and MC consistently burst with energy and inclusiveness and yet somehow he always makes it seem effortless. I do not believe there is an event out there on which he would not be a valuable attribute."

"After doing one event with Joel, you’ll never do another one without him.  He’s the ultimate MC and a great addition to any celebration.  He’s absolutely hilarious, while still extremely professional, and he can keep any type of crowd engaged and entertained for hours.  I once told him 'just 5 more minutes' about 10 times in a row (50 minutes!) because the entertainment he was introducing wasn’t quite ready. He managed to riff and not only keep the attention of the guests, but have them in stitches the whole time.  We’ve worked together on corporate retreats, holiday parties, social events, and even a Zoom wedding, and he brought the same level of charm, wit, and utter entertainment to each. I can’t speak highly enough about Joel.  His presence elevates any type of event, and as a bonus he keeps you laughing the whole time."

LIVE EVENT HOST - SUPER BOWL SECTION:

Main Stage Host in front of Raymond James Stadium for Super Bowl 55 in Tampa, Florida

Hosting the side stage in Houston, TX for Super Bowl LIV
For the last 9 Super Bowls, you may have seen Joel in Houston at Super Bowl LI introducing bands like ZZ Top, Gary Clark, Jr. or Solange Knowles on the Super Bowl Live Main Stage or hyping fans in front of the stadium. You might’ve caught him in Minneapolis at Super Bowl LII getting the crowd ready for NFL Superstars on the Autograph Stage or at the Mall of America. You certainly heard him in Atlanta at Super Bowl LIII MCing the Scouting Combine, the “Draft” or the Autograph Stage at the NFL Experience or hyping up 100,000+ football fans entering Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Or maybe it was at the Super Bowl Experience manning the Scouting Combine and hyping up Chiefs Kingdom to their epic Super Bowl LIV win at the stadium. Super Bowl LV was slightly different: An outdoor event during a global pandemic. But hosting in a mask and social distancing isn't going to slow down the energy in balmy Tampa, FL and the Super Bowl Experience! You might've also heard or seen Joel at the Super Bowl Experience in downtown LA or getting Rams fans hyped for Super Bowl LVI. His 7th, Super Bowl LVII (same number as Tom Brady!) was in Phoenix, AZ where he not only hyped up attendees for the "College Combine" but he managed the stage as well. He then was honored to be the Main Stage MC on Game Day organizing 2 DJs, a dance team, a pep squad and 4 additional hosts into one epic pre-game party! Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas was one for the ages. To bring a party to party city seems easy, but is wildly exhausting. And fun! And most recently, football fans attending Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans got to hear Joel riff with those participating in the 40-yard dash all week before Kansas City Chiefs fans were hyped up pregame on their own stage at Caesar's SuperDome.
As long as they keep playing a Super Bowl, you can bet he'll be there!!!

"Joel Bryant is ALL-TIME.  There is no event he can't handle.  Whether dressed up for a fortune 500 corporate event or surrounded by rabid NFL Super Bowl fans, Joel always adds fun, brings the energy and keeps it professional no matter what.  He's the type of guy you hire first and then plan your event.  A rare breed indeed, there is nothing this man can't do with a microphone to make your event better than you ever expected."
