In this post, our expert team expands on insurance for your street party. We cover the key points surrounding the importance of the cover:
What To Consider When Hosting A Street Party For The Kings Coronation
There are many things to consider, alongside Union Jack themed banners and finger foods, when planning a street party for the Kings Coronation.
We’ve put together a list of the most important factors to tick off before the big day:
- Consult with your neighbours and get their agreement before moving forward with the event.
- Make sure to tell your council about your street party at least 6 weeks prior to the event. This allows enough time for obtaining permission and closure of the road, if necessary, and informing the council of the required information.
- Does the proposed date of your street party clash with any other events in your area? Double check for any local pre-planned events beforehand.
- If you are planning to sell alcohol, make sure to get a Temporary Events Notice license.
- Provide, put out and remove all legally required signage.
- As the organiser of the event, it is imperative you protect yourself against financial loss. Taking out street event insurance means you can have peace of mind and fully enjoy the event.
Why Do I Need Street Party Insurance?
Street parties are a time for fun and celebration, especially for such a momentous occasion as the Kings Coronation. However, even when planning for an exciting event such as this, it is so important to ensure that you are protected against unforeseen incidents or accidents. Although we hope otherwise, there is a very real risk of serious injuries or damages occurring during a street party. These injuries or damages can result in significant financial losses for the event organiser. After all, it is better to have protection in place rather than wish you had.
Furthermore, it now is a mandatory requirement from many local councils that any organiser take out street party event insurance prior to the event occurring. It is always best to check beforehand the level of indemnity your local council requires that you have in place to meet their criteria.
What Does Street Party Insurance Cover?
To put it simply, street event insurance can protect you against claims for damages that may be brought against you as the event organiser. Street party public liability event insurance will protect you should any members of the public seek to make a claim should they suffer some form of accident or injury at the event caused by the negligence of the event organiser.
Should you have to cancel the event, street party cancellation insurance will protect you against financial losses incurred due to the cancellation.
Cover can also extend to include any event equipment providing financial protection for loss or damage to any equipment that you own or have hired in (with a maximum single article limit as per policy conditions).
Additionally, extensions are available for employers liability insurance should you enter into a contract of service with any assistants or employees. This protects you from any claims brought against you from any employees, assistants or volunteers helping at the event that may prove to be the fault of the event organiser.
