ADDITIONAL INSURED

What Is Additional Insured for Events?

An additional insured endorsement extends certain policy protections to a venue, municipality, landlord, or partner that wants protection tied to your event operations. Event buyers usually need it because venue contracts and permit packets commonly require the other party to be named before the event is approved.
