Event insurance:
Hornby Island Residents’ and Ratepayers’ Association (HIRRA) insurance does not cover renters’ liability or property, therefore you may be liable for any alleged act of negligence causing bodily injury or property loss to a third party.
HIRRA strongly recommends that all renters ensure they have adequate event liability insurance or partner with a group that has liability coverage for their type of event.
HIRRA requires that renters provide proof of event liability insurance for all large higher-risk events (e.g. dances, weddings, auctions, fairs).
Proof of insurance should be sent by email to: hall@hirra.ca or presented to the Booking Agent in advance of the date of your event.
For general committee guidelines see the Terms of Reference.
