Get Into Events Easier with Craft Vendor Insurance

ACT’s craft fair insurance is handmade for artisans, crafters, makers, vendors, and more! It’s designed to help you easily and quickly get the coverage you need to attend your next event.

Our online application takes 10 minutes or less to complete, giving you instant proof of insurance. You can choose when your policy starts, the number of days you want coverage for, and add additional insureds. Same-day coverage is also available for those last-minute events.

Meet Craft Show Insurance Requirements

Many event organizers will require or recommend vendors obtain their own liability insurance, and ACT’s craft show vendor insurance allows you to meet (or exceed) most of these requirements. Our policies have up to $2 million in General Liability coverage, helping you protect yourself against common claims and satisfy event needs.

The year-round ACT Pro policy starts at $24.25/month and includes Product Liability Insurance to cover accidents your products cause. Plus, you have the option to add on Tools, Supplies, & Inventory Coverage so you can insure the things you use to craft and sell at events.

Enjoy Nationwide Coverage*

Not all events are created equal—some require insurance, others don’t, and some say you have insurance through them. No one has time to keep track of which events do what, but with ACT you can relax knowing we have your back with one simple policy.

With coverage nationwide,* you can travel to nearly any event and be covered! We commonly insure vendors at craft fairs, shows, festivals, art walks, farmers markets, and more. You can choose from 1–90 days of protection with the ACT Go policy and feel confident you have the coverage you need.

Get FREE Unlimited Additional Insureds

ACT offers free unlimited additional insureds on all our craft fair event insurance policies. You also have 24/7 online access to your customer dashboard where you can download your Certificate of Insurance and share it as many times as you need.

Most vendors add events, organizers, businesses, venues, cities, associations, or property owners as an additional insured. In the case of an accident, this allows your policy to protect both you and the event for a claim. Now that’s coverage you can count on!

Which Insurance Do I Need for Craft Shows?

From one-day craft fair insurance to one year of craft show liability insurance, we have a low-cost policy that works when you do. Both the ACT Pro and ACT Go policies come with event coverage that works at most craft shows.

Common Questions About Craft Fair Vendor Insurance

How Do I Get Craft Fair Proof of Insurance?

You can get proof of insurance when you buy a policy online through the ACT website. The application takes 10 minutes or less to complete, and your Certificate of Insurance is available to download immediately after purchase through your online dashboard.

What Does Craft Booth Insurance Cover?

Craft show booth insurance covers you for accidents that occur in or around your booth during an event, such as someone tripping over part of your display or your tent blowing into another booth from sudden wind.

This type of insurance is known as General Liability Insurance and is meant to help pay for the cost of third-party claims of bodily injury or property damage caused by you or your business. It can help cover common claims that happen at craft shows like unexpected weather or slip-and-falls.

Why Do I Need Insurance for Craft Shows?

Having insurance for a craft show helps you meet event organizer requirements, keeps you covered for many common claims, and allows you to more easily protect yourself if an accident happens. It can help you save thousands if something goes wrong so you don’t have to pay for it out of your own pocket.

Since your policy is issued in your name, you can quickly file a claim online and stay up to date with the claims process instead of relying on the event organizer. This makes it easier for you to handle an accident and safely continue vending at events.

If you’re someone who sells at a lot of events during a particular season, our 90-day policy can get you coverage for three months. This is a great way for you to not stress over insurance requirements or buying more than one policy. Just one plan gets you non-stop coverage all season long.
