Allianz offers expert musical insurance

Allianz Musical Insurance offers the perfect cover for your needs — so why look to trust anyone else?

Allianz Insurance
  The market leading Allianz Musical Insurance believes it has the expertise and products to offer the perfect cover for musicians.

Allianz Musical Insurance is the UK's leading specialist instrument insurer, protecting over 70,000 British musicians whose instruments have a combined value of more than £600 million.

So, why trust anyone other than the industry leaders to look after your gear?

Comprehensive cover

Designed for musicians of all levels, Allianz' brass insurance provides comprehensive cover, and won't require you to pay an excess if you need to claim*. No matter where you're playing, your instrument will be protected against theft, loss and accidental damage.

Tailored

You can also tailor your policy with worldwide, unattended vehicle and public liability cover!

Allianz are the music insurance experts and understand that if the worst happens you'll want to get back to playing as soon as possible, so they also cover the costs to hire a loan instrument and will replace your brass instrument with a similar one of your choice.

Premiums

Premiums start at just £33 per year and can be paid monthly for no extra cost (0% APR).
