What does event insurance cover?

Event insurance helps you when the event runs into problems as a result of situations beyond your control. Policies are designed to cover costs, expenses and revenues when an event is cancelled, abandoned, postponed, interrupted, or relocated

Some of the circumstances we can cover, for example:

  • Adverse weather 

  • Non-appearance of key people   

  • Communicable disease 

  • National mourning 

  • Terrorism 

  • Civil commotion

  • Unavailability of the venue. 
     

Non-Appearance


Non-appearance coverage is important when the success of an event or tour depends upon performers, public figures, keynote speakers etc. Policies are designed to cover costs, expenses and revenues when an event is cancelled, abandoned, postponed, interrupted, or relocated when a specified person or people cannot appear at the event due to: 

  • Unavoidable travel delays

  • Death, injury and/or illness

  • When non-appearance of key people is a deal-breaker for the attendees, the insurance is ready to protect.
