Host Andrey Barabanov

Admit it, there's a difference between "we booked a host" and "we had a host people remembered." At a corporate event the scenario is often the same: the official part, congratulations, a cocktail reception — and that's where everything depends on who holds the microphone. If the person can't feel the room, the evening falls apart into awkward pauses and contests from the noughties.

Andrey Barabanov has been hosting events since 2013. 'Host of the Year 2021' according to EXPERT_RF magazine, winner of the TOP100AWARDS, resident of the TOPSHOWMEN project and member of the top 100 showmen of the professional union 'Club of Hosts'. He is invited as an expert on corporate events by MIA 'Russia Today' and 'Radio 1' — meaning he doesn't just take the stage but also understands the mechanics of a business celebration.

The client list speaks for itself: Lukoil, Gazprom Nedra, Unilever, Sberbank, Alfa-Bank, Aeroflot, Toyota, L'Oreal, X5 Group, VseInstrumenty.ru. These are companies that place high demands on contractors — regarding the contract, timing, and how the host interacts with top executives. On site, it looks like this: no fuss, no pressure on guests, respect for those who don't like contests, but with energy for those who came to dance.

Andrey works in Moscow, travels to events across the country and abroad, and collaborates under a contract as an individual entrepreneur. Leave your number — we'll check available dates and quote the fee.
