What does an award ceremony host do?

An awards host announces each category and its nominees, calls presenters and winners to the stage in the right order, and keeps applause, music and video cues in step with the AV team.

With many categories in one evening, pacing is the job: an awards night can drag, and the host’s timing, humour and crowd-reading keep the room with you from the opening to the last trophy.
