FAQs
Is event insurance refundable?
Policies are guaranteed to meet the coverage of your venue or your money back. General liability policies may be cancelled prior to the effective date with a partial refund (admin fee is retained).
Does alcohol significantly increase cost?
Host liquor liability is included for free. If you are in the business of selling or serving alcohol, your event requires retail liquor liability and you can expect increased premium due to added risk exposure.
Can I bundle multiple event dates?
Yes. Alcohol exposure exists regardless of who supplies it.
Can I insure multiple party dates?
Yes. Multi-day policies are often more cost-effective and can be purchased as long as the dates in question are all for the same event.
Are vendors covered under my policy?
No. Most venues require vendors to carry separate policies.
Does higher coverage always cost much more?
Often the increase is modest relative to the added protection.
Is Event Insurance Worth the Cost?
Yes. A single injury claim can cost tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills and legal fees. Event insurance protects you financially and satisfies venue requirements.
