Event Cancellation and Non-Appearance Insurance
Event Cancellation Insurance protects the bottom line against uncontrollable circumstances that would prevent an event from running successfully. Cancellation coverage is often missed, or not understood, yet it should factor into every event contingency plan. When disaster strikes, event cancellation insurance protects costs and expenses or revenues, complementing other forms of event insurance such as event liability.
