When Is Event Insurance Required?
Event insurance is required any time an external organization or individual rents a 91快活林 facility for a non-91快活林-sponsored event, such as a wedding, recital, conference, or community gathering. Proof of general liability coverage must be submitted to both the booking department and the Office of Risk Management before the event takes place.
This requirement exists to protect all parties involved. If an incident occurs during the event, the facility user's insurance serves as the primary financial backstop, covering potential bodily injury, property damage, or other liability claims. Without adequate coverage in place, neither the facility user nor their guests would have that critical layer of protection.
The certificate must show the following minimum insurance coverage:
| Coverage Type | Minimum Limit |
|---|---|
| General Aggregate | $1,000,000 |
| Combined Single Limit (per occurrence) | $1,000,000 |
| Products/Completed Operations | $1,000,000 |
| Personal & Advertising Injury | $1,000,000 |
| Accidental Medical Coverage | $50,000 |
| Fire Damage (any one fire) | $5,000 |
| Liquor Liability | $1,000,000 |
| Abuse or Molestation | $100,000 |
