What Is Liquor Liability Insurance?

Liquor liability insurance is designed to protect you from legal and financial responsibility if someone gets injured or causes damage after drinking alcohol at your event. It’s a must-have if you're serving, selling, or even allowing alcohol consumption at a private or public gathering.

Many venues in Houston, TX will require you to show proof of liquor liability insurance before they'll let you pour a single glass. So if you’re planning an event where alcohol will be served, don’t skip this critical coverage.

 

What Can Go Wrong?

Let’s be honest—alcohol affects judgment. That’s why even the most joyful celebration can take a turn if a guest drinks too much. The risks range from property damage to bodily injury, and unfortunately, even fatalities. But with the right insurance, you’re not left footing the bill.

Here are some of the most common claims that liquor liability insurance can cover:

Drunk Driving Accidents
If a guest causes a car accident after leaving your event.

Lawsuits
If you're sued for negligence in serving alcohol.

Fights or Assaults
Alcohol-fueled altercations that result in injuries or property damage.

Injuries to Third Parties
If someone is hurt by an intoxicated attendee.

 

Do You Need This Coverage?

If you answer “yes” to any of the following, liquor liability insurance should be on your event checklist:

  • Will alcohol be served, sold, or allowed?
  • Are you hiring a bartender or catering company?
  • Does your venue require insurance coverage for alcohol?
  • Are you renting a public space?

Even if you’re not directly serving alcohol, you may still be held liable if something goes wrong. Call Texas Special Event Insurance at 866-602-7076 and we’ll help you sort out exactly what you need.

 

What's Usually Not Covered?

While this policy is essential for alcohol-related risks, it has its limits. Here are a few things that are usually excluded:

  • Serving alcohol without a proper license (if one is required)
  • Damage or injury caused intentionally
  • Workers or volunteers injured while serving (requires workers' comp)

We can walk you through any exclusions and help you add on additional coverage if needed. Just give us a call at 866-602-7076.
