What Is Event Liquor Liability Insurance?

Event liquor liability insurance protects your business if a claim were to occur. Claims can include a guest at an event who imbibes too much alcohol, becomes intoxicated, and drives off. As they are pulling away, they cause an accident with several serious injuries. You could be required to pay thousands in medical fees and expenses. If you serve alcohol at parties or bartend at events then you need alcohol insurance for parties. Hosts are those who allow partygoers to bring their own alcohol. Servers are those who provide alcohol at an event.

What Does Event Liquor Liability Insurance Cover?

Event liquor liability insurance protects against liquor-related claims such as a customer who becomes intoxicated and starts a fight with another customer. You will need to add our Assault and Battery endorsement in order to receive this coverage. Other claims could include an intoxicated customer who drives away from the party and causes an injury accident. Event liquor liability insurance covers bartenders, caterers, or any business owner who provides alcohol as part of your business. It can also include party hosts such as a bride and groom, corporate dinner, or another type of party. 

Who Is Liable For Alcohol-Related Claims At An Event?

Event hosts or business owners who serve alcoholic beverages are held liable for alcohol-related claims. Some venues may even require you as the host to have event liquor liability insurance. It is important to check with your venue and double-check the requirements. However, alcohol-related claims could cost you thousands, so it is strongly recommended to add event liquor liability insurance to your policy before hosting the event.
