Carving Performer Public Liability Insurance
Carving performances — whether involving wood, ice, fruit, stone, foam, or live demonstration pieces — are visually impressive and highly engaging, but working with sharp tools, blades, power equipment and public-facing spaces carries clear risks. If a member of the public is injured, or if property is damaged during your setup, performance or pack-down, you could be held legally responsible.
At Quote Monkey, our Carving Performer Public Liability Insurance provides specialist protection for artists, demonstrators, entertainers and craft performers who carve live at events. The policy includes cover for third-party injury and property damage, along with legal defence costs, medical expenses and compensation awards. This ensures you can focus on creating your artwork safely and professionally without worrying about unexpected claims.
We offer public liability cover from £1 million up to £5 million, suitable for performers working at festivals, exhibitions, shopping centres, community events, corporate bookings, weddings, markets, craft fairs and private functions. If you work with assistants, tool handlers or volunteers who help with setup, crowd control or material handling, you may also add employers’ liability insurance to comply with UK legal requirements and protect everyone involved.
Our performers’ liability policies are offered on an annual basis only, with the full premium payable at the time of purchase. Annual cover allows you to carry out unlimited carving performances, demonstrations, workshops and events throughout the year, without needing additional policies for each booking. This ensures simple, transparent pricing with no hidden interest or extra fees.
Cover applies across the UK and includes preparation, equipment setup, performance time, live demonstrations, public interaction and pack-down. Once arranged, your policy documents are issued instantly and meet the requirements of most venues, organisers and councils.
Since 2011, Quote Monkey has provided a wide range of specialist insurance products for creative professionals, performers, demonstrators and event operators across the UK, supported by clear wording, dependable protection and trusted customer service.
Whether your act involves wood carving, ice carving, fruit and vegetable carving, chainsaw art, foam carving or live demonstration pieces, Quote Monkey’s Carving Performer Public Liability Insurance ensures you stay fully protected — all arranged quickly and securely online.
