How Rain Insurance for Events Works

Simple Steps to Secure Customized Rain Event Coverage for your Next Special Event with Vortex Event Insurance

Select Your Location

Choose the best rain insurance package based on your event’s location. We use data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide accurate and dependable special event insurance coverage options to your needs.

Identify the Date & Time

Choose the hours you want to cover, whether it be your entire event or just the most critical hours when the bulk of income is expected. You can also consider adding buffer hours before and after the event to maximize protection.

Confirm Rain Threshold

Decide the rainfall threshold that makes the most sense for your event. Commonly requested rain options range from light rain (0.10 inches) to heavy rain (1.0 inch). Once you set the threshold, there’s no need for additional paperwork; the measurement is independently sourced and automatic.

Wait Until Your Policy Triggers

Once your policy is bound, you’re all set. If the recorded rainfall at your location during the specified timeframe meets or exceeds your defined threshold, the policy triggers automatically. You’ll receive a payout, no proof of loss or adjusters needed.

What Does .25″ of Rain Per Hour Look Like?

The National Weather Service has a collection of video clips showing rain at different hourly rainfall rates (from .05″ to 1.50″). These may help you better understand how specific rainfall rates look in real time.

Satisfied Customers

DICK’S Sporting Goods Open

"We are thrilled to partner with Vortex on another rain insurance policy for the 2023 Tournament week. The whole insurance process is so simple and straight-forward. Just like last year, our policy gives us peace of mind knowing that if rain impacts the tournament or any ancillary events, such as Country Superstar Kenny Chesney’s Friday night concert, the financial loss will be manageable. Now, we can focus on our main goal, delivering a first-class event experience for the golf fans of Central New York."

John Karedes, Executive Director

Venture Richmond Events, LLC

“We recognize that rain is one of our biggest obstacles when planning any of our outdoor events. With Vortex, it is great to know that we are financially covered if rain becomes problematic. The whole process is quick and simple.”

Stephen Lecky

Red Wine and Brew Music Festival

"Thank you for making the rain insurance process easy! As painful as the rain is to events ... getting the insurance claim submitted and paid out has been a breeze with you!"

Carey Garwood, Business Manager

MET PGA Section

“Anyone charged with the execution of a high end, costly event can relate with losing sleep to concerns about weather issues. Vortex Weather Insurance enabled us to guarantee playable weather, or offer our participants their money back. This has dramatically eased our concerns leading up to big events and fundraisers where the ability to protect everyone involved increases confidence and credibility. The Metropolitan PGA has partnered with Vortex for our association events and also as a benefit to our Section Professionals who will benefit from investing in weather insurance for their most important events and outings.”
