New York dance show patron injury | Dance show insurance NY

In 2020 in New York, an audience member was injured after being hit by a falling piece of the set at a taping for a reality TV dance show. In a situation such as this, the patron may decide to sue for damages.

Commercial General Liability coverage (in Front Row’s event insurance policy) is designed to protect against all sums up to the coverage limit that the insured shall become legally obligated to pay for bodily injury or property damage to third parties arising out of the operations of the insured event. It includes the cost of a lawyer to defend you.

Our online short-term event insurance can cover dance shows, recitals or competitions.
