Showstoppers® Event Cancellation Insurance
Please note that if you are seeking event cancellation coverage pertaining to Coronavirus COVID-19, this is not available as it is deemed a pre-existing condition and it is specifically excluded from all event cancellation policies issued through our program from January 2020 forward.
Expecting the unexpected can save hundreds of thousands of dollars
No matter how much time, energy and money you invest in your association’s convention, trade show or virtual event, forces beyond your control can cause costly cancellations or interruptions; from hurricanes to snowstorms, labor disputes, acts of terrorism, and more.
ASAE-Endorsed Showstoppers® Event Cancellation Insurance helps provide protection for the loss of revenue or the commitment of expenses due to cancellation, abandonment, curtailment, or postponement of an event.
It also pays for your losses due to the reduced attendance at a continued event – full cancellation of an event is not required.
