Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need event insurance?
  • Yes, increasing willingness to seek civil action for recompense in respect of injuries, losses or damages makes event insurance a must.
  • What attendance level should I use.
  • The attendance is the total expected visitors over the whole event. 250 visitors per day for a 4 day event is 1000 total visitors.
  • Do I need additional cover if I have an alcohol licence?
  • If you have an alcohol license this is absolutely fine and will not incur any additional premium etc. We do exclude any damage or injury due to intoxication though.
  • Does the insurance cover me if the venue cancels my event or if bad weather forces the event to be cancelled?
  • Yes, if you have chosen the Cancellation/ Abandonment option
  • What if the dates of my event change?
  • We have a 15 day event window so if your event moves there is no need to worry, just make sure it doesn’t go over the expiry date.
  • Is there a compulsory level of public liability cover?
  • No, but in many instances your local council will advise you of the preferred level of cover to seek
