Insurance for the people who make events happen

Gig gradient-1

 

Specialist cover for freelancers working across the live event industry.

You keep the show moving. We help protect it.

From sound engineers and lighting techs to tour managers, riggers and stage crew, the live events industry depends on freelancers.

You move from project to project, venue to venue, sometimes country to country. The work is unpredictable, the schedules are intense, and the risks don’t fit neatly into a standard policy.

That’s why we’ve developed Freelancer Protect - specialist insurance built around how live event
freelancers actually work.

WHAT IS FREELANCER PROTECT?

Freelancer Protect is a flexible insurance solution designed for individuals working across live music, touring and events.

It combines core covers most clients ask for, with optional protection that helps support you when things don’t go to plan — whether that’s an accident, equipment damage, travel disruption or a legal issue.

Just as importantly, it comes with access to a team who understand the industry and can talk you through what you actually need.

No call centres.
No generic policies.

Just practical advice from people who work in live events insurance every day.

more than just a quick note

Buying a policy online might be fast, but it isn't always right.

 

Every freelancer's setup is different. The work you do, the contracts you sign, the countries you travel to and the equipment you carry all affect what protection you need.

We take the time to understand:

 The roles you perform
 The environments you work in
 The contracts you’re asked to sign
 The equipment you rely on
 Where your work takes you

So you can be confident you’re buying cover that actually matches your reality.
