Although insurance is not always a legal requirement (except for Employers’ Liability Insurance), it is considered an essential investment and is sometimes required by event organisers.
Here are the key insurance types to explore –
Public Liability Insurance – Protects a business from the cost of legal fees if a member of the public is injured or their property is damaged as a result of the business’s activities. Event organisers often mark this as compulsory.
Event Equipment Insurance – Event equipment insurance protects you against accidental damage, loss or theft of equipment used for an event, including any items that you own or rent. Exhibition stands are a significant investment, particularly reusable ones. This insurance can give you peace of mind.
Event Cancellation Insurance – This insurance protects you against financial losses if an event is postponed or cancelled. It sometimes even covers lost revenue from occasions like key speakers not appearing, bad weather and sometimes venue issues.
It is important to speak to a qualified insurance broker or agent if you have any queries relating to the insurance of your event appearance.
