Officially, there is no state-recognised training to become a reception host. Moreover, the profession is not regulated. Thus, it is the combination of personal qualities and experience that makes it possible to find assignments. Despite the fact that there is no official recognition of the profession of reception host, experience as a host in a leisure centre or host in tourist structures such as holiday clubs or hotels is an asset. You can then start by taking the BP JEPS (professional diploma for youth, popular education and sport) in leisure activities for all publics, the BAPAAT (professional diploma for technical assistant entertainers) or the BAFA (diploma of aptitude for the functions of entertainer in group camps for minors). It can also be useful to have a DUT in social careers, with the option of social and socio-cultural animation. It is also possible to follow a training course in the event industry at BAC+2 level: BTS Communication or BTS Tourism.

The price for a reception animation will vary according to many parameters: type of event, distance between the place of the event and the animator's premises, duration of the intervention, framework of the organisation of the event... A family reception in small committee will be less expensive than a company reception. The same applies to ordinary days, for which the price is lower than for special occasions: Christmas, Easter, New Year's Day, etc. For daytime entertainment, the price is around €300, while for evening receptions it is around €350. An additional €50 will be required for grandiose events. Sometimes entertainers also offer hourly rates, for example €200 for a 2-hour birthday party at home.

For reception entertainment, the choice of a professional can be difficult. Word of mouth is the best option. For example, you can ask a friend or relative who has recently organised an event if they were satisfied with the entertainment and if they could give the contact details of the entertainer. A good facilitator adapts to the emotion, speaks directly to the people and knows how to proportion his or her interventions. You can ask several of them for videos of receptions they have hosted.
