Vista Insurance Services

CREATIVE INDUSTRIES

  • Those running creative businesses need to focus on many moving parts, leaving insurance to a broker who understands their complex industry and multiple risks.

From public liability insurance to loss of revenue and liability cover, we recognise how unique risks are for our clients in the creative sector. With over a decade of experience providing robust, thoughtful cover, Vista Insurance will limit your risk, provide the strongest cover possible at the most competitive price, and – as we are an independent provider – can offer you a wide range of choice that takes in the whole of the insurance market.

We understand the need for reactive and responsive cover in these particular industries and whether it’s one day insurance policies, or protection that spans a year, we will work tirelessly to get you the policies you need in place, as well as bespoke options (should you need them) without charging you extra.

We work with a wide range of businesses within the creative industries, including:

  • Ticketing agents
  • Music, events, and production (including festival public liability insurance)
  • Public and private events (including wedding insurance)
  • Experiential events
  • Media, TV, and film
  • Theatre and arts
  • Venues

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Silverback Events Ltd
“Vista have provided us with Insurance for the past 2-3 years, they have a great understanding about our industry and the needs that we have which fills us with a great deal of confidence. Ryan our account manager is my source of all knowledge who I know has sourced the best possible cover for the company. He is also great at helping with all the queries I throw at him, therefore no matter what some other insurance company says they can deliver to us in service, price, etc I know that the knowledge that Vista has on our company is non- replaceable. Also when I call or e-mail Vista I know I will get an answer from our Ryan or his team with no requirement to chase for a response. I would not hesitate to recommend Vista to any other businesses and friends.”

Audio Alliance
“We have been insured with Vista Creative since 2014 and during that time we have received excellent advice from Ryan and Rich with regards to our insurance requirements. We receive a visit every year to make sure that our insurance needs are always up-to-date with our policy and Vista have always provided the superior levels of service that we expect. When we’ve needed to claim it’s always been handled swiftly and accurately. We have confidence that going forward Ryan and Rich will offer us friendly and accurate advice and we’ll always receive the best insurance for our business from Vista Creative.”

Tower Productions
“Having put our insurance programme out to tender in 2014, we decided to place our insurances with Vista Creative. I was impressed with the quick turnaround of our quotes and the levels of cover provided. Since then Ryan’s knowledge of our industry and how they operate has helped with several enquiries and I have been very pleased with their level of service.”

“We have worked closely with the team at Vista to ensure that our insurance coverage is appropriate to the ever-changing needs of our business. We have complete faith in the advice which we have received over the years, as well as the high degree of flexibility and level of customer service which we have found to be second to none. As we have brought new products and services to market, Vista have been there every step of the way. Their personal approach means they don’t treat as just another sale but as true customers and people. We cannot recommend them enough.”
