What Is A Waiver of Subrogation For Events?

A waiver of subrogation is an endorsement request that limits the carrier's ability to pursue recovery against a named third party after a claim payment. In event insurance, it commonly appears in venue, landlord, and facility contracts alongside additional insured and primary wording requests.
