Event Agreement & Waiver

An Event Agreement & Waiver, also sometimes called just an Event Agreement or Event Waiver, is a document through which two parties (the host and the renter) contract for the rental of a venue for a specific event. In an Event Agreement & Waiver, the parties not only cover the contractual terms of the agreement, such as fees and deposits, this agreement is unique in that the event details are also included. In other words, here, the parties enter items such as the name of the event, the number of guests, etc.

In an Event Agreement & Waiver, the renter also normally agrees to certain terms to protect the host in case of any issue with the event. Such terms include a blanket waiver of legal claims as well as an indemnification provision, saying that the renter will indemnify the host in case any disputes arise.
