Wedding DJ insurance

Hello, looking for some advice on this:

I'm getting married in a city hotel in april and my fiance and I have asked a friend who DJs at a local latin club to do our music. The hotel asks that anyone we hire in has public liability insurance. We have wedding insurance but this doesn't cover anyone but ourselves. The company the DJ works for has PL insurance but as we're asking him, not the Company, it doesn't cover him.

Does anyone know if you can get one off public liability for this sort of thing?

Any advice would be appreciated, cheers

    He should be able to get his own PL insurance.

    Dont know how much it will cost though.

    I used to have to getmy own public liability insurance for my job and i paid about £30 a year for it. But it could be a lot more for a DJ as they have a lot of heavy equipment.

    He needs to ring an insurer who offeres business PL insurance and speak to them.

    Your other options are to go through his company or find another DJ, who is covered.
