Festival Insurance Guide

Coverage strategy for multi-day events with complex crowd, vendor, and alcohol exposure.

Exposure Profile

Festival underwriting focuses on attendance, perimeter controls, ingress and egress, contracted security, emergency response plans, and third-party vendor governance.

Coverage Planning

Programs often include general liability, participant legal liability, hired/non-owned auto, liquor liability, and cancellation options where available. Coverage terms should align with contract language and permit requirements.

Vendor and COI Controls

Require COIs from all vendors and concessionaires. Confirm additional insured and indemnity requirements prior to event week to avoid compliance bottlenecks.

For contract language details, review venue insurance requirements.
