The Big Blues Bender is a special event. It only exists for a handful of days, once a year. In order for the Bender to survive and thrive year after year, we must ensure that the packages we sell allow us to cover our budget and produce the event you have come to know and love. If circumstances in your life prevent you from attending the Bender, please understand that the event must and will go on even without you. We can not forfeit the revenue from your package, nor can we transfer it to a different year. To do so would undermine the financial stability of our company and jeopardize the long term health of the Bender.  

The only protection against uncertainty is Insurance.

You may add travel insurance at time of check out, or add it to your existing reservation. this video will walk you through the steps:

We have partnered with Travel Guard to offer our guests an opportunity to purchase travel insurance via our online booking portal. Travel insurance may be purchased at the time of booking, or up to 24 hours before departure. 

We are not insurance agents or brokers. If you elect to purchase travel guard via our booking portal, your transaction is wholly between you and Travel Guard. Team Bender can not assist, edit, modify, or access your travel insurance policy in any way.
