Frequently asked questions
How much does an MC cost in Durban?
Each MC lists a booking fee on their profile, so you can compare prices before you send a request. The final quote depends on the event length, rehearsals, languages and travel.
Can a Durban MC host in isiZulu and English?
Many KZN MCs host in both. Say which languages you need in your booking request.
Do you cover Pietermaritzburg and the North Coast?
Yes. Mention your venue, whether in Ballito, Pietermaritzburg or on the South Coast, and the MC’s team will confirm availability and travel.
What if I need to cancel?
Cancel within 48 hours of paying and you get 100% of the booking fee back. After 48 hours you get 85% back, as GigFinder keeps its 15% platform fee. The full rules are in our Refund Policy.
