What does our insurance for events cover?
We can provide cover for organisers and attendees of one-off events and multiple events throughout the year. Depending on the type of cover needed, our Event Insurance policies can include these four areas of protection.
Public Liability
We provide up to £10 million in Public Liability Insurance, which will meet the needs of your venue or local authority. This will protect you should a compensation claim arise because a member of the public, a performer, speaker or other third party suffers an injury or property damage at your event.
Employers' Liability
If you employ any staff at your event, including unpaid volunteers, helpers and stewards it is a legal responsibility for you to have Employers’ Liability. This covers you should a staff member suffer an injury and blame your event.
Equipment Cover
From tables at fetes, to sound equipment at concerts and festivals, our policy can cover your specialist items. The policy will cover your equipment against loss, damage and theft.
Event Cancellation
If you are hosting an event we can provide protection should you be forced to cancel or rearrange your event due to Adverse Weather only. You can get your event cancellation insurance quote below.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Why do you need event organiser insurance?
A. The main reason to get event organiser insurance is to give yourself the cover of public liability insurance, which will protect you against costs that could arise from being sued by a member of the public for an injury to them, or damage to their property, that has occurred at your event. The event organiser insurance can also include event cancellation protection and equipment cover as optional extras.
Q. What’s typically covered by public liability insurance for event organisers?
A. Public liability insurance will provide you with cover for legal expenses that may be incurred in the event a member of the public pursues damages against you for an injury they have sustained, or damage to their property that has occurred, due to your event.
Q. Does public liability insurance cover my business for the actions of my employees?
A. If an employee accidentally caused an injury to or damaged the property of, a member of the public attending your event, with the individual seeking to make a claim against your business as a result, then you would be covered by your public liability insurance included in this policy.
However, public liability insurance does not cover you in the event of an employee making a claim against you, as this would fall under Employers’ Liability insurance, which is an optional extra.
Q. Does the policy cover stallholders at my event?
A. No, any independent stallholders, exhibitor or supplier who engages with your event should have their own Public Liability in place. This policy is designed to protect you as the event organiser, and not those who exhibit or sell at your event.
If you have your own stall at events, then take a look at our Stallholder Insurance policy.
Q. Can you protect against adverse weather?
A. Yes, should you have to cancel, abandon, or postpone your event due to adverse weather conditions, your costs will be covered.
Q. Can I supply and set off the fireworks myself?
A. No, the insurance underwriters will require your fireworks display to be provided and managed by a third party pyrotechnics company, with their own public liability insurance
