Ready for your living history?

Ensure your Re-enactment is protected!
Let’s face it: re-enacting history is thrilling, but it’s not without its risks. Even the most carefully planned event can encounter unexpected challenges. Imagine an accident damaging your meticulously crafted costumes, or a minor mishap leading to an injury to a member of the public or another re-enactor. These situations, while hopefully rare, can have significant financial consequences if you’re not properly insured. Insurance shields you from the costs of defending injury claims, regardless of their validity. Your insurance will protect you by covering the defence of any injury claim, whether justified or not.
Why our Past Time Re-enactment Insurance is crucial
Re-enactment insurance is a sensible investment in protecting your passion. It acts as a safety net, allowing you to focus on the event itself, not the potential for financial upset. Our specialised policies offer the cover required, including:
- Public Liability: Protects you if a spectator or member of the public is injured at your event, covering legal costs and any damages.
- Employers’ Liability: Participants who follow group rules can be seen, legally, as employees of their group or society, since the group controls how they act and display. If the rules and methods of display are ambiguous or poor, leading to an injury amongst the members, it could lead to a claim under Employment Liability legislation. We provide Employers Liability cover.
- Equipment Cover: Safeguards your investment in equipment such as replica weapons, armour, and period attire against damage, theft, or loss.
Embracing the Unconventional
Not many insurance providers understand the world of historical re-enactment. Many shy away from covering such activities, deeming them too complex or risky.

Our Past Time insurance expert isn’t just an insurance broker; he has a military background and is a member of a cavalry re-enactment group so fully understands the requirements of this sector and the implications of historical re-enactments.
We acknowledge the dedication, and the unique challenges involved. Our understanding allows us to provide tailored insurance solutions that meet the needs of the re-enactment community. We offer competitive rates and expert guidance, so you can focus on what matters most: bringing history to life.
