What event insurance covers

General Liability (GL)

Third‑party bodily injury & property damage — think trip‑and‑fall, damage to rented premises, or accidents involving attendees and vendors.

Liquor Liability

Coverage for claims arising from serving, selling, or furnishing alcohol (where available). Often required by venues when alcohol is present.

Venue Requirements

Additional Insured certificates (included at no additional cost), Primary/Non‑Contributory wording, Waiver of Subrogation — we help you meet the contract checklist.

Event Insurance — FAQs

Do venues really require General Liability?

Most venues do. They’ll usually ask for a certificate naming them as an Additional Insured and may require specific language. Additional Insureds are included at no additional cost. We’ll help you provide what they need.

When do I need Liquor Liability?

If alcohol is sold, served, or furnished, the venue or caterer often requires Liquor Liability. Host liquor for BYO/non‑seller events may also be available in some states.

How fast can I get a certificate?

Online tools can issue certificates within minutes once you complete the application and payment. Complex requests or special wording may take longer.

Can bartenders get insured for a single night?

Yes — many policies offer one‑day or short‑term options for Insurance for Bartenders that include General Liability and optional Liquor Liability.

Is cancellation/postponement covered?

That’s a separate coverage (event cancellation) and isn’t always included with General Liability. Ask us about options if needed.
