You certainly can’t cancel travel insurance that you have already paid for, but your insurance will surely come in handy when an event that you’re travelling for gets cancelled.
While most travel insurance packages include some coverage for trip cancellations, cancellation for an event is special coverage that may vary from plan to plan.
People who add this extension to their travel insurance are travelers who will attend events such a weddings, annual meetings, sporting events, religious festivals, conventions, concerts, tradeshows, award ceremonies, or more.
So just as travel insurance is a vital part of trip planning and taking holidays, event cancellation insurance is an added on extra that can protect you even further for unforeseen circumstances arising when planning major and special events.
