Our History

Anderson Cooper and Howie Mandel Flash Mob Proposal:

Adam Welton began hosting events after making history at Northwestern University’s Dance Marathon in 2004, becoming a four-year host of the iconic 30-hour charity event.

After college, Adam was hired as a full-time Radio Disney host, later relocating to Los Angeles where he built a high-energy career as DJ Mad Hatter, performing for major celebrities and becoming a standout name in the LA Bar & Bat Mitzvah scene.

As an actor and creator, Adam has appeared on Bounce’s In The Cut, Kendrick Lamar’s HUMBLE music video, and multiple Dhar Mann short films, while also producing short films and a podcast with over 89 episodes.

Now based in Chicago, Adam now runs a full service entertainment company - Mad Hatter Entertainment. We specialize in Bar & Bat Mitzvahs, weddings, and school events. Call now to customize your event today!
