What it is and who needs it.
What the event promoter bond covers
Virginia regulates professional boxing, wrestling, and martial arts events through the DPOR Boxing, Martial Arts and Professional Wrestling program. Before a promoter license is granted, the applicant must execute and file a bond under Code of Virginia § 54.1-829.
The bond amount equals the sum of (i) the total gate fees and (ii) the total amount due to all boxers, martial artists, and wrestlers for their performance — but it cannot exceed $100,000. It guarantees you meet your promoter obligations, including paying the contestants and honoring the contracts you signed.
If a promoter fails to pay athletes or otherwise breaches the obligations the chapter defines, the harmed party can recover against the bond. Enter your event's gate-plus-purses figure; pricing starts from $100, and the application collects no credit information at the standard amount — and if the surety ever pays, you repay the surety.
