Festivals & Event Travel Insurance

With more and more bucket list worthy events popping up around the world, people are now travelling far and wide in search of the ultimate festival experience. Whether you’re planning a trip filled with glorious music at Creamfields, EXIT Festival and Tomorrowland, or some snowy events at Snowboxx, Rise and Snowbombing; it’s important to ensure you’re protected against any festival related disasters.

From cancelling your trip, covering stolen possessions or medical emergencies, Alpha is here to ensure you don’t end up out of pocket. Most travel insurance policies won’t cover festival tickets, especially if the organisers have cancelled the event, but Alpha’s Festival & Event Cancellation Extension is here to help.

Why it's important to have specialist festivals cover

You’ve managed to get tickets to that amazing event abroad, but a few weeks before the organisers decide to cancel or postpone the event. Suddenly you’re severely out of pocket, with useless flights and accommodation all booked for nothing. The upside is, if you cannot get a refund AND you’ve purchased Alpha’s festivals and event extension, we’ll cover these costs for you!

Alpha’s Festival & Event Cancellation Extension includes:

• Cover if the event is cancelled before or even during your trip
• Cover for any pre-booked festival or event
• Up to £250 to cover the cost of cancelled festival or event tickets
• Up to £1,000 for prepaid transport and accommodation
• Up to £100 for the cost of amending your travel tickets

As if that wasn’t enough, every Alpha policy also includes the following benefits:

• Your choice of policy excess
• Single Trip up to 94 days, or choose a Longstay for up to 2 years cover!
• £10 million emergency medical cost cover
• Loads of activities and sports covered FREE with the option to add more
• 14-day cooling off period
