Event Equipment Insurance

Damaged or Stolen Equipment Protection
Our event equipment policies will protect you against the damage or theft of any equipment you are responsible for throughout the duration of your event which is solely for the purpose of said event. Whether you have hired, leased, or own the equipment in question, we will indemnify you by covering the cost of the repair or replacement of the equipment if something should happen to it. Any claim for damaged or stolen equipment must meet the following conditions:
- The damage, loss or theft happened during the period of insurance either at the venue or in transit to or from the venue within geographical limits
- The cost of repair or replacement must exceed £250 as this is the policies excess
- Any theft of equipment must be a result of forcible entry or exit from the site and items must not have been left unattended or unsecured
- The damage must not have been caused by faulty erection, use or dismantlement of temporary structures
Event equipment insurance can be included with the majority of our insurance policies, with your specific circumstances being taken into account for your policy. No matter what equipment you are are planning on using during your event, there is always a risk something could go wrong with it.

Equipment Insurance FAQs
Equipment hire insurance in the UK covers organisers when expensive equipment gets damaged or stolen. This means indemnifying event organisers for the loss, damage, or theft of event equipment whether hired in or owned.
This relates to items that you are bringing to or hiring for the event which do not come as part of the fixtures of fittings of the venue. Here are some examples of equipment we can cover:
- Tents, marquees and furniture
- Sound systems and speakers

While equipment insurance is not a legal requirement at events, it is highly recommended. Not only will event equipment insurance provide peace of mind in case something goes wrong, but you will be financially protected.
