Event & Festival Insurance - Noble Insurance

Graham Sykes Insurance was founded in 1982 and in 2023 joined Noble Insurance Group.

Our Gun Insurance

Our gun insurance has been specially designed to provide cover to those people who already have their public liability insurance for shooting covered by their association, or those using non-firing replicas or decommissioned weapons for re-enactment purposes.

We cover most types of guns including air rifles, shotguns, rifles, antique, black powder and decommissioned historic weapons. In addition we cover most types of optics including night vision equipment as well as the accessories you need to use, store and clean your gun.

Our policy is designed to compliment the liability cover provided by your association. We don't provide liability cover as there's no reason for you to pay for it twice but please make sure your association membership covers your shooting activities.

Should the worst happen we are here to help. In addition to arranging the gun insurance policy for you we will also handle any claim on behalf of your insurer. This means that you will be dealing with people who understand what it takes to get your gun properly repaired or replaced as quickly as possible.

Event and festival insurance provides financial protection for organisers against various risks associated with hosting an event or festival, including cancellation, public liability, and property damage.

Common exclusions might include intentional damage, illegal activities, lack of attendance, and certain extreme weather conditions.

The cost varies based on factors like the type of event, number of attendees, location, duration, and the specific coverages required.

Policies often specify limits on the number of attendees, so it is important to ensure your expected attendance falls within the covered range.
