Please note: The information contained in this chapter sets out good practice that should be considered by event organisers. However, it is industry guidance and does not necessarily cover everything that organisers need to consider for a particular event.
All organisers of events should have public liability insurance with a recommended limit of indemnity of at least £10 million. All suppliers, including first aid providers, and performers must have their own public liability insurance. Depending on the activity, other insurances may be needed. It is recommended that organisers contact a specialist event insurer for advice and quotes.
