The Risks
Anyone can potentially be a claimant if they trip or slip whilst at your stand, either during the exhibition or during the setup and breakdown of your stand. Who pays if you are liable for damage to another stand or exhibit, or serious damage to the venue?
Being more aware of their legal rights and more willing to pursue them, people will most likely sue for damages to seek compensation in the event of personal injury and or damage to their property. It can be expensive to lose a legal action.
All businesses need liability insurance - exhibitors are no exception.

Exhibition Property Insurance - All Risks
Your Stand and Exhibits are at Risk
The property used on stands ranges from the specialist exhibits, the computers down to the tables and chairs. Some of this may be hired under hire contracts which make you responsible for the equipment, and possibly loss of hire charges to the owners should the items be lost or damaged and out of use.
It is important to buy cover on the correct basis and to select a sum insured which is sufficent to pay for the cost of replacement.
Please note that in common with other exhibitor insurance policies, Event Assured Exhibitor Express property cover in standard form is not suitable for fine art, antiques, collectibles and the like where "replacement as new" is clearly inappropriate - a different basis of valuation is required. If you need to cover this type of property, please talk to us first.
