After dinner speaker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An after dinner speaker is a person who makes a public speech after a formal dinner. Normally it is meant to be reasonably light-hearted and entertaining but can have a serious message. The speaker may propose a toast or vote of thanks at the end of the speech.

Some people charge for and make a living from after dinner speaking, for example ex-politicians and other public figures.
