Compere: Mark

Mark has been the MC at Manchester United’s Player-of-the-Year awards every year since 2002. Since 2001, he has been the live MC for Sky Sports' Masters Football, hosting all their televised tournaments across the UK, as well as in Dubai, Kuala Lumpur, Brunei, and Macau (China). He also presents all the live TV interviews. Additionally, he has covered Rugby League and cricket, featuring on Channel 4 and Sky Sports for their ODIs, Test Matches, and County games around the UK, conducting all televised interviews with Sir Ian Botham, David Gower, David 'Bumble' Lloyd, Michael Holding, and the late, great Richie Benaud.

Mark Jones has unparalleled experience as one of the UK's top radio presenters. He established his reputation at Liverpool's Radio City during their peak years and became an award-winner (with a Sony®) for hosting Michael Jackson’s 'Biggest Solo Concert in History', where he entertained a crowd of over 125,000 onstage all day. Often voted ‘Presenter of the Month,' he has also received many accolades from the Variety Club of Great Britain, where he is a long-standing Barker.

Mark also covered the pre-season American tours for Manchester United, Glasgow Celtic, and Liverpool FC for UK radio. After several successful years broadcasting on the two large Century FM networks (now Smooth FM), Mark returned to host a daily UK-networked program on Magic. He has been regularly heard on Manchester’s Magic 1152 (formerly Piccadilly Radio). He even expanded his reach across the Atlantic, featuring on American radio stations WEFT and Q-96 in Champaign, Illinois, where he also hosted the American Heart Association's black-tie fundraising dinners in 2010 and 2011, helping to raise record-breaking amounts in the auctions.

In 2001, Mark was alarmingly close (just four blocks away) to New York's Twin Towers during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He spent the rest of that day as a Salvation Army volunteer, assisting Emergency Services. For the rest of the week, he reported live from Ground Zero for UK radio. Mark’s talents are not limited to radio and hosting live events; he has written and published several books, including the best-selling ‘Mark Jones’ Birthday Book’, which became the definitive UK Radio reference book.
