Don’t Forget Your Event Insurance And Other Tips

Whilst organising an event there are various things to consider to ensure all goes off without a hitch. Here are some tips which should hopefully help to make things run smoothly on the day. Remember- taking out 1 day event liability insurance today could save you from significant financial loss later.

Make sure you have carried out a risk assessment for the event. Copies of any health and safety policies must be passed on to the event staff members and volunteers to be adhered to on the day.

Ensure that all of the necessary contracts and licenses between yourself and the venue and any outside contractors such as caterers or entertainers have all been made and confirmed in writing before the event proceeds.

Regularly check the building status of any temporary structures, decorations, displays etc. This ensures everything is all set up and ready to go for the start date of your event.

1 Day Event Liability Insurance

Don’t leave it until the last minute to take out your 1 day event liability insurance policy. There would be nothing worse than having everything all set up only to find that you have left it too late to receive your policy documents through in time (thus causing the venue owner to force cancellation of the event due to the relevant insurance not being in place).

Ensure all employee’s/volunteers know their duties on the day and any staff training manuals have been read through thoroughly. This way everybody knows exactly what it is that they will be doing on the day

Lastly, make sure to keep a record of anything of significance which happens whilst the event is in preparation stage. Having some form of health and safety checklist handy to ensure all preparations are carried out safely.

Insuring against cancellation of your event is always a great choice. Our blog on Event Cancellation Insurance may provide some helpful assistance.
