Thousands of enthusiasts from across the country gather to showcase their meticulously restored classic vehicles, participate in scenic cruises through the streets of Reno, and enjoy lively street parties filled with music, food, and camaraderie. The event is not just a celebration of cars but a cultural gathering that honors automotive history and community spirit.

Festival of Colors – Summer Edition (August 16): A Celebration of Community and Joy

This vibrant festival at Rancho San Rafael Regional Park fills the air with music, dance, and colorful powder throws, creating a joyful and energetic atmosphere that attracts attendees of all ages. The Festival of Colors – Summer Edition is not only a celebration of community and happiness but also an opportunity for local artists, vendors, and performers to showcase their talents. However, with large crowds and dynamic activities, there are inherent risks such as slips, falls, accidental injuries, and potential damage to equipment or property.

Capital Insurance Service Insights:
We understand the importance of being prepared for these risks. For attendees traveling from out of town, we offer health and travel insurance plans that protect against unexpected medical emergencies, trip cancellations, or delays. For event organizers, vendors, and performers, our general liability insurance safeguards against claims related to bodily injury or property damage. Additionally, equipment insurance covers valuable gear such as sound systems, tents, and booths from theft, damage, or loss during the event. With comprehensive coverage in place, everyone involved can focus on enjoying the vibrant festival atmosphere without worrying about the “what-ifs.”

Vegas to Reno Off-Road Race (August 13–16): The Ultimate Desert Motorsport Challenge

Covering over 550 miles of rugged desert terrain, the Vegas to Reno Off-Road Race is one of the most demanding and thrilling motorsport events in the country. Drivers and teams face extreme conditions, including rocky trails, dust storms, and unpredictable weather, all of which test the limits of both vehicle and skill. The high speeds and challenging landscape significantly increase the risk of vehicle damage, mechanical failure, accidents, and potential injuries to drivers and crew members. Additionally, logistical challenges such as transporting specialized vehicles and equipment add complexity and risk to the event.

What Capital Insurance Service Recommends:
To meet these unique needs, we provide specialized motorsport insurance policies tailored specifically for off-road racing. Our coverage includes protection against vehicle damage and loss, liability for accidents that may involve third parties, and personal injury coverage for drivers and team members. Beyond the race vehicles themselves, we also offer comprehensive insurance for racing teams’ support crews, transport vehicles, tools, and equipment. This ensures that every aspect of your team’s investment and safety is covered, allowing you to focus on the race without worrying about financial setbacks from unforeseen incidents.
