Are you involved in planning, organizing, or hosting an upcoming special event? If so, there's a good chance you will need to purchase a special event liability insurance policy.
Even if your venue doesn't require insurance for your event, with an estimated 40 million lawsuits in the U.S. every year, it's a good idea to get coverage.
Philadelphia Insurance Companies (PHLY) is dedicated to a customer-centered approach designed to provide you with coverage in just minutes. Read below to learn what our policies cover and how you can get a special event insurance quote in minutes.
What Special Event Liability Insurance Covers
Special event liability insurance acts as a kind of general liability insurance for special events. It primarily covers losses associated with bodily injury and property damage that may occur at the event. Most
venue requirements stipulate a $1,000,000 minimum in liability coverage from an admitted carrier, which is the standard PHLY coverage offering.
For special events, it's important to find an insurance policy that offers adequate protection. While the cheapest policies may seem attractive, they can come with high deductibles and exclusions that can leave you vulnerable if an incident occurs. Other policies may include high premiums with extras you don't need. PHLY's policies offer excellent coverage options at a competitive price.
As a leading insurance company for special event coverage, PHLY offers high limits starting at $1,000,000 per occurrence/$3,000,000 aggregate. Our policies include options for Liquor Liability (often not included by other carriers) and Abuse and Molestation coverage. Premiums start as low as $175 with $0 deductible.
PHLY covers more than 200 types of gatherings and events with our competitive and comprehensive special event policies. Events we cover include:
- Weddings
