DJ Reese is a corporate event DJ and emcee based in Marlton, New Jersey, and he has worked in Atlantic City at the Atlantic City Convention Center and the Showboat Hotel. Both events are below.
Need a host for the program? See our corporate event emcee page for hosting details, or the South Jersey page for the closest home market coverage.
Atlantic City Convention Center: Trade House Launch Pad
On August 15, 2021, DJ Reese was the emcee for Trade House’s Launch Pad, a corporate event at the Atlantic City Convention Center for 200 to 250 guests. The program ran three hours, and the client paid for additional time on the day.
Uncorked: AC, Showboat Hotel
Uncorked: AC, the Uncorked Atlantic City Wine Festival, ran at the Showboat Hotel in Atlantic City on Saturday, June 24, 2023, from 2 to 6pm. We were emcee and DJ for the four hour window. The Showboat Hotel announced it as the inaugural Uncorked AC wine festival, on Saturday, June 24th. See the Showboat Hotel announcement.
A daytime tasting event runs on a different clock than an evening gala. The crowd rotates through in waves over the full four hours rather than sitting through one program, so the job is holding energy and pacing across the whole window instead of building to a single peak moment.

Showboat Hotel, Atlantic City
The Showboat Hotel on the Atlantic City Boardwalk is one of the venues we’ve worked as emcee and DJ, running the Uncorked Atlantic City Wine Festival across its event space on the property. A boardwalk hotel venue like this brings its own layout and sound considerations: large open event floors, high ceilings, and a crowd that moves freely rather than sitting through a fixed program.
Close to home, still its own market
Marlton, New Jersey is home base, with regular work across New York City, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Washington DC. Atlantic City sits within that same South Jersey region, and Uncorked: AC at the Showboat Hotel is our documented booking there, run to the same standard as any home market event, with the same emcee and DJ, one operator approach that runs across 74 Lidl US grand openings nationally.
What it costs
Single day corporate and event bookings run $5,000 to $8,000 depending on hours, scope and equipment. Use the pricing calculator for a closer estimate.
Atlantic City Venues: Showboat, Convention Center and Bass Pro Shops
We emcee and DJ at the Showboat Hotel and at the Atlantic City Convention Center, and we DJ’d Santa’s arrival night at Bass Pro Shops in Atlantic City. Whether your program is in a hotel ballroom, a convention-scale hall or a retail space, we run the host mic and the music from the same booth and coordinate setup with the venue’s AV and production team.
Emcee and DJ in One, or DJ Only
Planners ask whether they need a dedicated emcee. In Atlantic City you can book one person for both: announcements, names and timeline on the mic, then the music from the same booth. If you already have a host, we can DJ only.
