California Fair Services Authority (CFSA) is authorized to pool
Special Events Liability Protection for fair facility lessees, concessionaires,
exhibitors and other special events operators and participants for
non-hazardous activities. Our protection, which is limited to activities at California fairgrounds only, is similar to commercial general liability coverages and conforms
to state requirements for special events operators. Read our Special
Events Summary of Protection for a program overview or the Memorandum of Coverage (MOC) for a detailed program description. The MOC is available online or in your fair's Red Book (Claims and Loss Reporting Guide) under General Liability, Tab 4.

To Apply for Special Events Liability Coverage
Special Events Coverage is acquired through the fair by filling
out a "Special Events Coverage Receipt,"
which must be sent along with the payment to CFSA at least five
days before the event. The receipt is short and easy to complete,
simply follow the procedures posted on our Web
site or in your fair's Red Book (Claims and Loss Reporting
Guide) under General Liability, Tab 4. Remember: If a covered
special events operator has separate exhibitors, a security company
or anyone else other than himself participating in the event, each
one must require proof of liability insurance.
Set-Up and Take-Down Days Included
at no Extra Charge
When completing the "Special Events Coverage
Receipt," confirm that the days specified on the form are the
exact dates specified in the contract or rental agreement. There's
no extra charge for set-up and take-down days, but they must be
noted in the contract to be covered.
In the Event of an Accident
If an accident occurs, fill out the same "Accident
Report" form used when reporting general liability accidents.
Make sure to include the covered special events operator's name
and to attach a copy of their "Special Events Coverage Receipt"
and contract. Send all paperwork to CFSA.
