Do You Really Need Event Liability Insurance?

Yes, you do.
Under the Safety at Sports and Recreational Events Act of 2010(SASREA), the people who are responsible for organising the event or providing the venue or funding are financially responsible for any liability that arises from that event.

Essentially, if you play a role in orchestrating the event, you are accountable for the physical well-being and safety of your guests.

It's important to note that assigning blame is not a factor here. Whether you’re the organiser, venue owner or sponsor, you will be collectively and individually responsible for damages. To put it simply, if one party can’t pay up, the others will need to step in and cover the liability shortfall.

What’s in it For You?

Your goal is to craft incredible events, but there are plenty of curveballs to catch when planning parties. Event liability insurance gives you a multitude of benefits:

What Isn’t Covered By Event Liability Insurance?

While event liability insurance protects you from many party poopers, there are things it doesn’t cover.

Firstly, no political drama coverage here – if you're orchestrating a rally, you're on your own. Also, if you've got a fireworks expert in the house, event liability insurance probably won’t pay out if things go 'boom'.

Jumping castles and inflatables bring the fun, but they also bring their own set of risks and event liability insurance likely won't bounce into action for inflatable accidents – that's a whole other ball game.

Adrenaline-pumping events that feature bungee jumping or other extreme sports are thrilling, but they probably won’t be covered by your policy either. You’ll also have to foot the bill for weather-driven cancellations.
