Event Supplier and Contractor Booking Terms

About this document

What it’s for

Events depend on suppliers such as marquee companies, sound and lighting, toilets, generators, security and fencing. Clear booking terms set out what each supplier will provide, when, and to what safety standard, and allocate risk if the event is cancelled or something goes wrong.

When to use it

  • When booking suppliers and contractors for an event
  • Alongside the supplier’s quotation and specification
  • When a supplier has no terms of their own, or to agree which terms apply

What’s inside

The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.

  1. Agreement
  2. Supply
  3. Health and safety
  4. Site
  5. Payment
  6. Cancellation and weather
  7. Liability
  8. General

How to complete it

  • Complete the booking form with the scope, times and price
  • Collect insurance, risk assessments and method statements before the event
  • Agree the cancellation terms clearly

Key points to check

  • Suppliers often have their own terms – agree in writing which terms apply
  • Under CDM 2015 the build and break of many events is construction work – appoint a principal contractor where required
