Event Insurance

Event Insurance (Special Event Liability) is a short-term policy designed to protect event hosts from financial losses arising from accidents, property damage, or unexpected cancellations. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate gala, or a music festival, this coverage satisfies venue requirements for General Liability and protects the organizer from lawsuits if a guest is injured or if the event must be cancelled due to extreme weather.

The “Risk Reality”: Venue Requirements & Liability

Planning an event involves moving parts and high stakes. If a guest trips over a cable or gets into an alcohol-related accident leaving your party, you as the host can be held liable. The Insurance Information Institute advises that most venues now mandate hosts to provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) with at least $1 million in liability coverage before they will unlock the doors. Without this, your deposit and your personal assets are at risk.

We provide flexible policies that cover everything from the rehearsal dinner to the post-event cleanup.

Event Insurance Cost

“How much does event insurance cost?” It is a small price to pay relative to the total event budget.

• Liability Only: According to industry market data, a basic 1-day General Liability policy typically costs between $100 and $200.
• Liquor Liability: Adding alcohol coverage usually increases the premium by $50 to $150 depending on the number of guests.
• Cancellation Insurance: This is calculated as a percentage of the total event budget, often costing around $200 to $500 for standard weddings.

Mr. Andre was a massive help beginning to end! He helped us get a great deal on our insurance, and explained everything thoroughly. It isn’t every day you get an insurance agent that you feel actually know what’s they’re talking about AND has your best interest in mind, but he definitely cares about his clients! Thanks Andre, and thanks Dream Assurance!
