TICKET QUESTIONS
When do tickets go on sale?
ALL BreyerFest tickets will be on sale in February 2024. All ticket types will be first come, first served. The purchase of VIP tickets will be limited to a maximum of two per cart, but not limited by account or address.
Do I need an account on BreyerHorses.com to participate?
Yes. All participants must have an account on BreyerHorses.com prior to purchasing their tickets to ensure their account has access to the event, even if you are attending onsite. Creating an account is FREE and EASY and you can do so here.
Do I need to pay for shipping on my BreyerFest tickets?
No, there is no shipping charge for BreyerFest tickets so long as they are the only item(s) in your cart.
When will my ticket books be mailed?
New for 2024 - there are no more ticket books! BreyerFest is going digital!
All tickets to in-person BreyerFest will be emailed to the email address that is linked to the Breyer Account you bought tickets on. They will be emailed to buyers through our partner ticket platform approximately a week to ten days prior to BreyerFest and will have unique, scannable QR codes that will correspond with the model type or item it’s for. This includes Admission, the Evening Show, Event models, Special Runs, and for our VIP ticketholders, their Limited Editions and VIP swag packs.
What if I order more than one ticket on my account?
If you ordered multiple tickets or multiple types of tickets on the same account, you will receive an email for EACH TICKET you purchase on that account. If you order on multiple accounts with different email addresses, your tickets will be emailed to the email address associated with each account.
What if I order more than one ticket on my account?
If you ordered multiple tickets or multiple types of tickets on the same account, you will receive an email for EACH TICKET you purchase on that account. If you order on multiple accounts with different email addresses, your tickets will be emailed to the email address associated with each account.
When will I receive my ticket email?
VIP tickets will be emailed to buyers within a few weeks of the close of VIP ticket sales.
All-Access tickets and General Admission tickets will be emailed to buyers approximately a week to ten days prior to BreyerFest.
What will I receive in my ticket email?
Each ticket you’re emailed will have a unique, scannable Master QR code that will work only for the models or other items it corresponds to – which will be listed in the email you receive. (You can also find this information in your order history on BreyerHorses.com.) This includes Admission, Event models, Special Run models, and for our VIP ticketholders, their Limited Edition models and VIP swag packs. Once the Master QR code has been scanned for all the items it corresponds with, it will no longer be scannable.
As an alternative, within the ticket email you receive for each ticket you buy, there will also be an option to view your individual tickets as a multi-page pdf. Each item you are eligible to receive or purchase will have a single-use QR code associated with it. Since each QR code is unique, each of these individual tickets can only be scanned once, except the admission ticket.
Once either QR code has been scanned for it’s corresponding item, it will not work again for that same item. For example, if you use your Master QR code to pick up your Special Run models, you cannot go back and use the individual QR codes for those models to pick up additional Special Run models.
The only QR code that can be scanned multiple times is the admission code.
How do I get my models with these new digital tickets?
You can either print your tickets at home and present paper tickets to BreyerFest staff to scan or you can add them to your phone’s wallet and have them scanned off your phone. Screenshots are also an option! Since each QR code is unique, any of these methods is perfectly acceptable to redeem your tickets.
Will I have access to virtual components of BreyerFest (including online only models) if I purchase my tickets on site at the KHP?
Guests who purchase their tickets onsite at the Kentucky Horse Park will not be tagged for access to virtual components of BreyerFest, including the virtual BreyerFest store and online-only Limited Editions. If you would like to have access to BreyerFest virtual content, please be sure to purchase your tickets prior to mid-June.
Can I trade my Special Run Tickets?
We DO NOT recommend trading QR codes with other BreyerFest attendees. Each QR code is unique and once scanned cannot be scanned again for the same item. There is no way of knowing if a QR code has been scanned, so we discourage guests from trading tickets. If you are looking to trade we recommend trading actual models, not tickets.

What are Special Run models?
Special Run models are available to VIP and All-Access in-person ticket holders. The total number of models offered varies from year to year, but typically there are at least 8 different options, including a non-horse animal option. Within each option we may or may not have included some surprises - like ½ the run is glossy or the entire model is a Surprise! With the "Surprise” model option you won't know anything about the model you are getting until you open it after you turn in your redemption ticket and purchase the model on site.
Special Run models are not included with the cost of your ticket; they must be purchased at an additional cost.
How many models can I buy?
All in-person ticket holders will all have access to the Limited Edition models during BreyerFest weekend. Guests may purchase a limit of one (1) of each item per transaction, but there is no limit on the number of transactions you may make over the course of the weekend.
Can my models be mailed to me?
VIP, All-Access, and General Admission ticket holders must pick their models up onsite. No models will be mailed. Any unclaimed models will be forfeited.
I am not getting emails from Breyer. Help!
If you find that you are NOT getting emails from Breyer when we say emails are going out, it’s likely that at some point you unsubscribed from Breyer emails. Unsubscribing from one email list unsubscribes customers from ALL our lists, so if you’re worried about getting emails, you can re-subscribe at www.BreyerHorses.com on the account creation page.
