Registering and Insuring Events

The Students' Union (AStA) has event liability insurance with SIGNAL IDUNA. Faculty student bodies and student groups can use it to insure their events, such as parties, concerts, festivals or sports events.

Office hours: Mondays 10:00–12:00, Fridays 10:00–12:00 by appointment only

How it works

  1. Fill in and sign the form completely
  2. Email it to finanzen@asta-hannover.de at least two weeks before the event
  3. The Finance Office reviews your registration. Your event is only registered once you have written approval
  4. Report any changes (venue, date, number of guests) and any damage or incidents straight away
  5. After the event, confirm that it took place and report the actual number of guests

What can be insured

  • Parties, concerts, festivals and sports events within Hannover
  • a maximum of 350 people at the same time
  • including selling food and drinks yourselves

Fireworks and pyrotechnics, tents and stages, processions on public roads, vehicles or animals, races and events outside Hannover can only be covered after checking with the insurer and may not be insured. The Finance Office clarifies this before approval.

Requirements

All events must meet the requirements in Annex 1 of the form, including a vegan option, a sober awareness team, at least one person with an up-to-date first aid course and no incentives to drink alcohol. If the requirements are not met, the event is not insured through the AStA.

Important: By signing, you confirm that you know and will follow the insurance conditions (Annex 2) and the requirements. The organising faculty student body or group is liable for any damage that the insurance does not cover due to a breach or incorrect information.

A maximum of 40 events per year can be insured under the policy. As a guideline, this means 2–3 events per faculty student body.
