Insurance is there to protect your arse should anything/everything go wrong.

Be careful with your insurance, some companies are scared of the unknown and thus exclude it in their policy, an example was the "no fire juggling anywhere" exclusion in the insurance policy for BJC 2006 in Bodmin. Most event insurance companies think "circus acts" constitute "dangerous activities" and won't cover them at all. Make sure you have read the policy and you understand any exclusions.

If your insurance covers any kind of losses that may happen well in advance of the event (e.g. the venue going bankrupt with your deposit money) then the earlier you buy the insurance, the earlier you will be covered.
