Large Event Insurance
Insurance plays an important role for organisers of large-scale events, helping manage the financial and operational risks that come with hosting festivals, concerts, and multi-day productions. Events that attract large crowds or run over multiple days typically face more complex exposures than smaller private or corporate functions, and standard event insurance may not adequately address these risks.
Major events, such as large music festivals, cultural celebrations, and multi-stage productions, involve factors including high attendance, multiple contractors, performers, venue requirements, and extended operating periods. These elements can increase exposure to issues such as weather disruption, event cancellation or postponement, third-party liability, equipment damage, and contractual obligations.
Insurance structured for large events can help address these exposures, providing organisers with cover that better reflects the scale, duration, and complexity of their event.
Event cancellation or abandonment
due to insured causes such as severe weather, natural disasters, venue damage, public authority intervention, or the non-appearance of key performers, helping protect non-recoverable expenses and financial commitments
Public and products liability insurance
for claims arising from injury to attendees, contractors, or third parties, or damage to third-party property occurring in connection with the event
Temporary structures and event infrastructure
including stages, marquees, fencing, barriers, lighting rigs, sound systems, and production equipment used to support the event
Hired-in equipment and production assets
including cover during installation, use, dismantling, and pack-down periods, as well as overnight storage on site
Weather-related extensions
such as adverse weather, reduced attendance, or abandonment triggers, where specifically arranged and subject to defined thresholds
Artist and performer non-appearance insurance
responding to financial loss caused by the cancellation or absence of headline or key performers due to insured reasons such as illness, injury, travel disruption, or other unforeseen events
Food and beverage liability
covering risks associated with catering, alcohol service, and food handling at events involving multiple vendors or large public attendance
Transit cover
protecting equipment, staging, and materials while being transported to and from the event location, including loading and unloading activities
