Festivals Insurance

This product meets the demands and needs of those who wish to insure their organisation of a festival for public liability and employers’ liability, event cancellation and abandonment, and damage to event equipment.

You should read and check all insurance documents issued to you and ensure that you are aware of the cover, limits and other terms that apply to your specific circumstances and what to expect should you need to make a claim.
