CCW Global can offer Non-Appearance Coverage benefits on Event Insurance plans to ensure that organizers are protected from forfeiting prepaid and irrecoverable expenses should a person who is vital to the successful production of an event.
If, for example, a bride does not show up to her wedding, or if a band fails to make it to their concert, the event which would have required their participation (the wedding and the concert, respectively) cannot continue and would need to be cancelled.
Whilst CCW Global can provide comprehensive event cancellation insurance benefits which cover against a wide range of incidents which may force an event’s cancellation, coverage for a cancellation following the non-appearance of vital person must be purchased as a separate policy provision.
Should a person vital to the event fail to appear, then a non-appearance coverage benefit on the event insurance plan will ensure that the organizer is covered for the risk of forfeiting their deposits or due payments for the hosting of the event.

Should the organizer or the vital person not agree to a medical exam then only non-appearance due to an accident will be covered under the policy. Additionally, pre-existing medical conditions are not normally covered under a non-appearance insurance benefit.
