Why Event Insurance is Important

There may be several different insurance covers you need when organising and running events, but a key cover to protect members of the public is event public liability insurance. This will cover you if an individual is injured or their personal property is damaged as a result of your negligence. Employers liability insurance is mandatory if you have employees. This can cover you if any of your employees are injured or become sick as a consequence of working for you. It could cover the cost of any claim, along with associated legal fees.

If you hold your event at a premises you own, then you’ll also need to insure the building and contents. If you rent a space, then you may need your own contents insurance. You might also want to consider financial protection for your takings and money stored on the premises, or being taken to a bank. And if you use a vehicle for your business to transport equipment or stock then you may want to get commercial vehicle insurance and goods in transit. Business interruption insurance can also help you to pay the bills if you’re unable to trade while your shop is closed.

If you don’t have these protections in place you might have to pay out of your own pocket if someone makes a claim against you.
