Event insurance – your event deserves the best protection

Whether you are celebrating a family event, organising your company's product launch, or arranging a large function for your association, you know how essential it is to protect your event.

Even the best laid plans can go awry. A violent storm could force the cancellation of your party. The singer could cancel their appearance at the last minute. You may have to postpone your wedding due to a family crisis, or personal or professional constraints. Whatever the crisis, TSM Event insurance helps organisers to safeguard their event against the unexpected.

Event insurance in brief

Cancellation

An unexpected cancellation could disrupt all your hard work and seriously dent your enthusiasm. We protect you against unforeseen costs should your event be cancelled, abandoned or postponed for reasons beyond your control.

Adverse weather

Has the weather already jeopardised your plans? TSM has you covered, whatever the weather throws at you. We cover your event against the consequences of extreme weather conditions that could threaten the safety of your participants.

Enforced reduced attendance

No matter how well you organise your event, external factors may prevent many of your guests from attending. With TSM, you are insured even if a strike, failure of public transport, or snow prevent at least 30% of your guest from arriving.

Terrorism

Unfortunately, terrorism is a reality in the modern world, which is why we include cover in the event of cancellation due to terrorist acts, or prohibitions or bans imposed by administrative authorities.

Public liability

At TSM, safety is of prime importance. Under our Public Liability insurance, organisers are covered for accidental bodily injury or property damage caused to third parties during the event.

Tenants' liability

Whether you are renting premises, a building or a party hall for your event, we can provide tenants' liability cover in case of damage to the rented property.

All-risks event equipment

Are you bringing or hiring technical equipment for your event? Our Event Equipment insurance covers you against breakage, destruction, theft or loss of equipment, so you can concentrate on organising your event.

Installation and dismantling

Our Event insurance not only covers your event, but also the installation and dismantling of facilities and equipment, because we know that every stage of your event is crucial.

Non-appearance

If your star entertainer or keynote speaker falls ill, it could disrupt your whole event. This optional extension takes away the worry of key people becoming unavailable. You are covered if your event is cancelled, postponed or abandoned.
