5 Events That Require Specialist Insurance
Obtaining the right insurance for an event can be a challenge. It can be difficult to find a specialist insurance provider, and many providers don’t even cater to those organising niche, unique events. At David J Miller Insurance Brokers, we pride ourselves on covering all types of events, no matter how common or unusual.
In this post, our team gives an overview of five types of events that can benefit from specialist insurance cover.
Annual Event Insurance
If you are the organiser of multiple events throughout the year, then it’s worth taking out annual event insurance. This type of insurance can give you huge savings, as you’ll have a policy for several events as opposed to insuring every event one by one.
Whether your annual events include boxing shows or festivals, we can cover you with an in-house event liability scheme. This can covers up to 15 or 45 events within a 12-month period.
Boxing Event Insurance
Boxing events are highly popular right now. Every year, there are more and more boxing promotions and events taking place – from white-collar events to professional competitive bouts. If you are hosting a boxing event, then boxing event insurance is a must.
This form of event insurance can provide public liability protection against any claims of negligence from the event. No matter the venue you’re in – whether it’s sports-specific or a town hall, you need protection. Ensure that you’re covered in the event of injuries being caused to the public, resulting from the event organiser’s negligence.
Festival Insurance
With summer fast approaching, now’s the ideal time to get your festival insurance. From music, beer and food festivals to arts, cultural and religious festivals, a wealth of festival events are covered by this type of event insurance.
In essence, insurance for festivals will protect you against any claims being made against you as a festival organiser. This might be a liability claim or cancellation of the event due to unforeseen circumstances. Whatever the size or scale of your festival, it’s always recommended to get festival insurance. Unfortunately, accidents and injuries do occur at festivals also.
Private Event Insurance
Private events – be it a private function, party, dinner, dance or social gathering – require private event insurance. This type of insurance will give you total peace of mind that you’re protected should an accident happen to your guests or members of the public. Even if your private event is niche or unusual, you can be covered by our expert team.
Sports Event Insurance
Sports event insurance is designed for covering organisers of both professional and amateur sports events. These range from triathlons, football tournaments, community sports days, golf days and boat racing events. Whether less than 100 visitors are attending, or the event is nationally televised, this type of insurance can cover you.
It usually includes public liability insurance, but it can also extend to event cancellation insurance, key personnel non-appearance insurance cover, terrorism and property cover, and employers liability insurance.
