INSURING EVENTS FOROVER15YEARS!
Exhibition insurance
Whether you’re an exhibition organiser or an exhibitor/stall-holder at an exhibition, conference, trade show, expo or fayre we can provide comprehensive exhibition insurance cover to protect your liabilities on a one day or annual basis.
Exhibition insurance can provide cover protection for your liabilities and finances through extensions such as event public liability insurance, employers liability insurance, event cancellation insurance and property cover whilst on site.
Exhibition insurance for organisers
We can tailor an insurance policy to cater for your needs. In particular, for those who are organising their first and only exhibition to those commercial companies who require an annual policy to cover a large number of exhibitions both in the UK and overseas.
Furthermore, for those who require a one off insurance policy or arrange a number of exhibitions here in the UK we can provide a quotation up to £20,000,000 public liability indemnity. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Insurance for exhibitors
Provides comprehensive liability cover for individuals or companies attending an exhibition as an exhibitor or stallholder.

Cover can be extended to include cancellation cover, employers liability insurance and property cover.

COVERS
What does exhibition insurance cover?
Exhibition insurance can combine several types of cover depending on your event and the risks you want to insure. The main options are public liability insurance, employers’ liability insurance, event equipment insurance and event cancellation insurance.
Public liability insurance
Can cover your legal liability if a member of the public is injured or third-party property is damaged in connection with your event.
We can arrange cover from £1 million to £10 million, with higher limits available where needed for larger public events or where required by contract. Venues, landowners and local authorities often require evidence of insurance before allowing an event to proceed.
Employers’ liability insurance
Can cover your legal liability if an employee is injured or becomes ill as a result of their work at your event.
When arranging cover, tell us about everyone working at the event including permanent and temporary employees, stewards and marshals, casual event workers, volunteers and unpaid helpers, and anyone working under your direction or control.
Event equipment insurance
Can cover event equipment you own, hire or lease against insured risks such as accidental damage, loss or theft. This might include seating, staging, decorations, crowd barriers, sound and lighting equipment, generators, marquees and other temporary structures used at your event.
Event cancellation insurance
Can cover certain irrecoverable costs and expenses or loss of revenue if your event is cancelled, postponed, interrupted or abandoned for an insured reason.
Adverse weather cover can also be included if required.
How much does exhibition insurance cost?
What is this price based on?
This is an actual quotation arranged through David J Miller Insurance Brokers and underwritten by Bspoke Underwriting Ltd on behalf of Accelerant Insurance UK Limited dated 19 October 2026. Your premium will be calculated based on the details of your event and the cover you choose, so the price you receive may be higher than the example shown.
Factors that can affect the premium include the total attendance throughout the entire duration of the event, the public liability limit of indemnity and the duration of the event. Adding employers’ liability, event equipment or cancellation cover can also increase the premium.
