Fairground insurance

Insurance for fairground operators and travelling showmen

As a fairground operator or travelling showman, you work hard to create spectacular amusements for the public. While most events pass without incident, contact with the public can sometimes put you, your assets and your employees, in a vulnerable position. If there is an incident that results in injury, loss or damage, you could end up losing large sums of money, unless you are protected by dependable fairground insurance cover. With so much at stake, it is better to have peace of mind, so that the fun of the fair can be enjoyed for generations to come.

Towergate is a specialist broker for a wide range of leisure and entertainment establishments. Our flexible showman insurance, tailored to the needs of your individual set up, can protect you from suffering financial loss and give you support in some of the most difficult situations you can face. For example, if you are forced to close a main attraction or if you are ordered to pay compensation to an employee or member of the public, various liability protections within your policy will provide the funds. Among other benefits, there is also cover for damage to, or loss of, your property, including caravans and goods in transit.
