Ricky Del Rosario Announces Emcee and Auctioneer Services for Events and Fundraisers Nationally

Nov 3, 2026

Award-winning emcee and licensed auctioneer Ricky Del Rosario combines more than 27 years of entertainment experience to host events and lead fundraising auctions nationwide.

Northern California, United States, November 3, 2026 -- Ricky Del Rosario, a nationally recognized entertainer, award-winning emcee, and licensed auctioneer, is bringing more than 27 years of experience in comedy, television, radio, and live entertainment to events across the United States. Through Ricky Del Rosario Inc., he provides combined emceeing and auctioneering services for corporate events, nonprofit fundraisers, charity galas, award shows, and special occasions.

Based in Northern California, Del Rosario travels nationwide to help organizations create engaging events that balance professional program management with entertainment. His approach combines quick wit, audience interaction, humor, and the skills required to conduct live fundraising auctions.

His background in entertainment also informs how he approaches live audiences. Instead of relying exclusively on a prepared script, he adapts to the room, responds to audience reactions, and uses humor and spontaneity when appropriate. His goal is to create an experience in which guests remain engaged while the event continues to meet its objectives.

Keeping Events Engaging Beyond the Script

Long programs, extended speeches, and transitions between presenters can make it difficult to maintain audience attention. Del Rosario approaches emceeing as more than introducing speakers or announcing the next agenda item. He combines timing, humor, audience awareness, and improvisation to keep events moving.

"Anybody can get up on stage and read a script, but keeping a room engaged, energized, and connected takes a different skill set. I've spent over 27 years entertaining audiences, and one of my biggest strengths is reading the room and knowing what people need in the moment," Del Rosario says.

Del Rosario works to balance these expectations, maintaining the event's structure while responding naturally to the atmosphere in the room. This flexibility can be particularly useful during live programs, when timing changes, unexpected moments, or audience reactions require a presenter to think on their feet.

His approach emphasizes that effective event hosting involves both preparation and responsiveness. By combining the two, he aims to create a cohesive experience that keeps guests involved from the opening remarks through the final segment.

Combining Emceeing With Professional Auctioneering

For nonprofit organizations, fundraising auctions require a combination of communication, timing, audience engagement, and program control. An auctioneer must present opportunities clearly, maintain momentum, and encourage participation while keeping the fundraising purpose in focus.

As a licensed auctioneer, Del Rosario brings his entertainment experience to this responsibility. His background in live performance helps him introduce energy and interaction into the auction process while maintaining attention on the items and fundraising opportunities being presented.

The combination of emceeing and auctioneering allows him to support the event rather than treating the auction as an isolated segment. He can guide the program, introduce speakers, engage attendees, and transition into fundraising activities without requiring organizers to coordinate separate presenters for each role.

For event planners, this integrated approach can reduce logistical complexity and help maintain a consistent tone throughout the event. For nonprofit organizations, it offers a way to combine entertainment with fundraising in a single professional engagement.

Del Rosario helps keep guests engaged while supporting fundraising goals at charity galas, benefit events, and other gatherings.

An Entertainment Career Spanning Television, Comedy, and Live Performance

Del Rosario's professional experience extends well beyond event hosting. As a stand-up comedian, he has television credits including BET's Comic View, HBO, Laffapalooza, STARZ, and TruTV. He has performed on major stages and appeared in national commercials for brands including Mercedes-Benz, Google, Toyota, Xfinity, and Apple.

He is also the current host of Lowe's national show, How To Anything, and has experience as an actor, radio and television personality, and keynote speaker.

These experiences have given him opportunities to communicate with different audiences across multiple entertainment formats. His work in front of cameras and live crowds complements his event services, where timing, presentation, and audience connection can influence the overall experience.

His professional background also includes competitive kickboxing. Del Rosario competed in the K-1 World Grand Prix in Las Vegas, an experience that reflects another dimension of his professional history and the discipline associated with high-pressure performance environments.

Together, these varied experiences contribute to the range of skills he brings to live events, from delivering a polished introduction to responding to an unexpected moment on stage.

Psychology and Communication Inform His Approach

Beyond entertainment, Del Rosario holds a degree in psychology and is a Certified Master Life Coach. These qualifications complement his experience in communication and audience engagement, providing context for his interest in human behavior and motivation.

Understanding how people respond to different situations can be useful in live event settings, where audience energy and participation may shift throughout a program. Del Rosario draws on his experience to assess the atmosphere, adjust his delivery, and encourage interaction without losing sight of the event's purpose.

His background as a keynote speaker supports his ability to communicate with diverse audiences. Whether hosting a corporate event, introducing a presenter, or conducting a live auction, he aims to make attendees feel included while maintaining a professional environment.

This combination of entertainment experience, psychology education, and auctioneering provides the foundation for his dual-service approach. Rather than separating hosting, entertainment, and fundraising into unrelated responsibilities, Del Rosario brings them together within one coordinated role.

Serving Northern California and Organizations Nationwide

Del Rosario is based in Northern California, with the Bay Area forming an important part of his professional identity. He also travels throughout the United States to provide emcee and auctioneer services to organizations in different regions.

His services are suited to corporate functions, nonprofit fundraising events, charity galas, award ceremonies, and special occasions that require a professional capable of managing a program while keeping audiences engaged.

For organizers seeking both an emcee and an auctioneer, Del Rosario offers an option that combines those responsibilities without requiring two separate bookings. His entertainment background, licensed auctioneering experience, and ability to adapt to different event environments support a coordinated approach to event hosting and fundraising.

Through Ricky Del Rosario Inc., Del Rosario continues to bring entertainment, professional hosting, and auctioneering together for organizations seeking a consistent and engaging event experience.

His ability to adapt to different audiences while maintaining the flow and purpose of an event reflects the qualities recognized through the award.

Rookie Lendeborg scores 37 as Warriors beat Clippers

LOS ANGELES — Rookie Yaxel Lendeborg poured in 37 points as the Golden State Warriors shrugged off the absence of Stephen Curry to beat the Los Angeles Clippers, 124-112, on Sunday (Monday in Manila). Lendeborg, who was picked 11th overall in the 2026 NBA Draft, racked up the highest points tally yet of his fledgling career while also providing six assists and grabbing four rebounds, as the Warriors snagged a fourth straight win. His 37 points were the most by a Warriors rookie in a game since Curry had 42 in 2010. Curry, now a 38-year-old veteran, had averaged 33 points over the past three games, including 44 against the Timberwolves on Wednesday, but missed Sunday’s game to manage his troublesome right knee. With Draymond Green also out, 24-year-old American-Dominican forward Lendeborg was the linchpin of a Warriors attack that has bounced back emphatically from losing its opening three games, after missing out on last season’s playoffs. “I’m gonna just continue to try to keep playing with a smile on my face. Maybe throw little dance moves like Steph in once in a while, but I’m gonna just keep trying to find my joy,” said Lendeborg. Coach Steve Kerr praised Lendeborg for adapting so quickly to the NBA. “He’s playing this way and he really doesn’t know the NBA game yet ... The game is still really fast for him. But he’s so skilled and so talented that he’s making all kinds of plays out there,” said Kerr. “I think he’s going to get a lot better ... But it’s remarkable the impact he’s making on these games in the first couple weeks of the season.” Elsewhere on Sunday, Luka Doncic racked up 45 points and 15 rebounds as the Los Angeles Lakers bested the Toronto Raptors, 131-125. The Lakers took the lead early in the first quarter and never surrendered it, even as the Raptors rallied from a 26-point deficit to create a few late nerves in Los Angeles. As Toronto’s Jamison Battle scored 15 points in the fourth quarter, Lakers coach JJ Redick was forced to sub his starters back into the game in the final minute to close out victory. The Boston Celtics racked up a fifth straight win, beating the Orlando Magic, 108-97. Celtics star Jayson Tatum led the scoring, with 32 points and seven assists. Some wayward Celtics shooting allowed a 15-point lead to evaporate in the third quarter. But Boston’s defense stayed resolute, forcing 18 turnovers for 21 points to pull clear again down the stretch. Paul George had 17 points, eight assists, two steals and two blocked shots. The Brooklyn Nets finally bagged their first win of the season, beating the Indiana Pacers, 98-90. Michael Porter Jr. top-scored for the Nets with 23 points, plus nine rebounds, as Brooklyn moved to 1-5. Their win leaves the 0-6 Sacramento Kings as the only remaining winless team in the NBA. Also on Sunday, the NBA suspended Atlanta Hawks guard Kingston Flemings for one game without pay for intentionally elbowing New Orleans Pelicans guard Bryce McGowens in the head. The incident, for which Flemings was ejected, occurred late in the Hawks’ 121-99 loss to the Pelicans on Saturday.

Carlos Alcaraz dominates 2026 Vienna Open  

VIENNA — Seven-time Grand Slam winner Carlos Alcaraz beat Alex de Minaur, 6-1, 6-4, to win the Vienna Open on Sunday and defeat his opponent for the seventh time in as many meetings. Alcaraz has beaten the Australian on grass and clay as well as on indoor and outdoor hard courts. He sealed his latest victory with trademark panache. Alcaraz drew his opponent to the net with a sliced backhand drop shot. De Minaur retrieved it but Alcaraz lobbed him with a backhand and, after the Australian volleyed that shot back near the net, clipped a cross-court forehand that landed just in. The second-seeded Spaniard looked jubilant and cracked a broad smile after clinching his fourth title this year — including the Australian Open for a career Grand Slam — and his 28th overall. The fifth-seeded de Minaur was looking for his second title of the year. He advanced to the final of the ATP 500 event with a semifinal win against Alexander Zverev, who goes top of the rankings on Monday. Alcaraz beat Daniil Medvedev in the other semi. Meanwhile, Alcaraz’s former coach Juan Carlos Ferrero is joining Ben Shelton’s coaching staff for the 2027 season. “Huge addition to my team for this upcoming season,” the 24-year-old Shelton said Sunday on social media. “Excited to get started and put in the work this offseason.” Former world No. 1 Ferrero helped guide Alcaraz to his first six major titles before their partnership ended last December. Ferrero will be joining Shelton’s father, Bryan, in the coaching setup. The fourth-ranked Shelton won a career-best four titles in 2026 and reached his first major final at the US Open, losing to Alexander Zverev. “Ben has extraordinary talent, power and character,” Ferrero said. “I’m very happy to join Bryan and the team in this exciting new chapter.”

LIONEL MESSI SENDS INTER MIAMI TO SECOND SPOT

LIONEL MESSI SENDS INTER MIAMI TO SECOND SPOT  

FOXBOROUGH, Massachusetts — Lionel Messi’s late strike catapulted Inter Miami above New England and into second place with a tense 2-1 comeback victory over their MLS Eastern Conference rivals Sunday (Monday in Manila). Messi’s typically crafty effort after scurrying through three defenders in the 83rd minute was enough to secure three points, with an own goal by his teammate Ian Fray four minutes later ruled out for a marginal offside. The 39-year-old Argentine superstar also provided an improvised assist off the back of his head for German Berterame, after Daniel Gazdag had put New England in front early in the second half. Victory sent Miami a point clear of the New England Revolution with one game left, meaning a win against Charlotte on Saturday will guarantee home advantage until the Conference Finals. It also secured Miami’s spot in next year’s Concacaf Champions Cup. “It was such an important occasion ... they’re a very tough team — really difficult — so I think it was a tremendous effort,” said Berterame. After a goalless first half, New England’s Peyton Miller slipped down the right flank to the byline in the 53rd minute. His cut-back pass was backheeled by Ilay Feingold to Gazdag, who smashed the ball home. Miami came close to equalizing soon after the hour, as Berterame followed up on a Messi effort saved by Matt Turner, only to have his shot cleared off the line by Brooklyn Raines. In the 69th minute, Telasco Segovia flicked a ball high into the box toward Messi, who was racing forward between two defenders but somehow headed it blindly off the back of his head to Berterame, who scored. Messi got on the scoresheet himself in the 83rd minute, collecting the ball just outside the D, spinning and skipping past three tackles before wrapping his left foot around the ball and sending it low into the far corner past US national team goalkeeper Turner. New England thought they had been gifted an equalizer with three minutes remaining. Fray inexplicably headed a hopeful Luca Langoni cross into his own net despite no pressure, but the New England substitute was ruled offside on video review. The Eastern Conference’s final playoff berths were also determined Sunday. Columbus Crew and Orlando City both qualified after 10th-placed New York Red Bulls lost 3-2 to runaway leaders Nashville.
