“Whether you are organising an exhibition, conference, or sporting event we can give you peace of mind that you’re covered for unexpected situations during your event and beyond.”

Martin Linfield
Divisional Director

Events are highly complex, unpredictable, and full of risks and we can provide expert advice for all aspects of the event sector.

We actively participate within the event sector being an industry partner of ABPCO where we regularly network and learn what is going on in the world of business events.

Complete solutions for all your event insurance requirements

We provide advice to event sector clients on the following products:

  • Event Budget Protection (cancellation and disruption insurance)
  • At Event Public and Employer’s Liability
  • At Event Property
  • Company Travel
  • Cyber insurance
  • Professional Indemnity
  • Directors and Officers
  • Trustee’s Indemnity
  • Business Liabilities
  • Business Property
  • Personal Accident and Travel cover for staff
  • Kidnap and Ransom/Political Risk cover for staff travel to high-risk countries
  • Virtual Event Transmission Failure insurance

We work hard to ensure you have the best possible event insurance that meets all of your needs through:

  • Ensuring you have sufficient Public Liability insurance to meet the rising level of claims paid to injured people
  • Explaining and arranging event cancellation cover to protect your event budget and profit if you have to deal with unexpected circumstances beyond your control, such as extreme weather, problems with transport, speaker no-shows, and venue or utility issues
  • Helping you establish if your employees, volunteers and temporary staff need covering at your event or if they are already insured within your commercial insurances
  • Providing travel insurance cover for your event team, whether you are hiring temporary staff or drawing from your existing workforce
  • Arranging cover for your event property or hired equipment such as stands, marquees, decorations, and audio-visual tech

What we do not offer:
Unfortunately, we cannot assist private individuals arranging private events such as weddings, parties and other celebrations. Nor can we support exhibitors or stall-holders.

We are here to help you.
