About Us

For over 30 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves solely to game show production. We’re not a DJ with some game show add-ons or a rental company juggling inflatables and concessions alongside game show gear. We are Game Show Gurus—your go-to mobile game show entertainment experts.

Our President and Executive Producer, Jeff Helfand, brings over 40 years of experience in show business, theatre, broadcasting, and communications, combined with marketing and event programming expertise. Game Show Gurus has been bringing game show excitement to events since 1995, with almost 30 years of experience in this one-of-a-kind form of entertainment.

Why We Are Different

We Are the Magical Game Show Guru Dream Team.

It’s true – with more than 30 years in business and a rich history in audio-visual, theatre, and broadcasting, we bring impressive experience to every event.

Our game show story started in 1995 when we purchased our first “Game Show Mania” lockout system, equipped with the iconic “GSS-III.” Then, we marketed these services under our DJ company well before most competitors entered the game show space. Over time, that system was retired in favor of new, advanced props as we constantly buy new game show props.

Well, a lot has happened. We now primarily focus on game shows. Our team produces, designs, and hosts game shows, and now we’re one the best game shows Gurus in the entire areas
