Event Insurance
Arranging event insurance cover to safeguard against circumstances beyond your control can make the difference between success and failure.
We offer specialist event insurance for all types of events
We have policies we can tailor to meet the specific requirements of the event industry, whether that involves non-appearance insurance for a keynote speaker at a conference or even insuring against adverse weather for an outside event.
When organising an event you have a duty of care for the people attending so adequate liability insurance is essential.
To consider the level of public liability insurance there are several things to consider:
- Any requirements of your venue
- The number of attendees
- Any activities you are offering
It is also imperative to cover anyone working at the event including temporary employees and even volunteers. There is a legal requirement for at least £10,000,000 Employers Liability cover to cover any injury to your workers.
Staging an event can also involve a significant risk to equipment which may be your own or may even be hired or borrowed from a third party. From staging, lighting and sound equipment to marquees we can arrange cover against physical loss and damage and if necessary insure against continuing hire charges.
Areas of cover you need to consider for a one off event include:
- Cancellation Insurance
- Public & Employers Liability
- Equipment Insurance
- Adverse weather
JMP can also offer one off or annual cover for:
- Conferences, AGM’s and seminars
- Concerts and other music events
- Art exhibitions
- Food festivals
- Film festivals
We give added value to our clients by providing:
