Host Max Malenko

The corporate event script is approved, the venue is booked, and a week before the date it turns out: the artist contractor has disappeared, the DJ doesn't know the timing, and a forty-minute gap has opened up between the award ceremony and the banquet. Sound familiar? It's at moments like these that it becomes clear the evening rests not on a paper plan, but on a person who knows how to bring it all together.

Max Malenko is a corporate event host from Saint Petersburg, and professionally works in Moscow and Europe. He has the ART SUMMER theater festival, corporate events, promotional events and mall openings, awards and city events under his belt. In addition to working at the microphone, he selects artists for a specific evening — a DJ, a cover duo, stand-up comedians, dancing waiters — and helps the client choose a venue.

On site it looks like this: the host doesn't read from a sheet or hide behind the counter, but keeps the rhythm of the evening and links together the acts, awards and artist entrances. When the program is put together by one person, the transitions between blocks don't sag, and surprises like dancing waiters are built into the script rather than happening unexpectedly for the client.

Works in Saint Petersburg and travels to other cities. Formats — corporate event, company anniversary, presentation, New Year's evening. The fee is calculated individually: it depends on the city, the number of hours, the host's tasks, working in tandem with a DJ and script-related tasks.
