BreyerFest 2020 Announcement

BreyerFest 2020 Announcement

Amazing Blog Readers –

Our thoughts and concerns continue to be with those on the front lines of the COVID-19 crisis. Most important is the health and well-being of everyone involved, from our internal staff and volunteers to all of you in the Breyer community.

In order to preserve everyone’s safety and deliver a BreyerFest as complete and fulfilling as possible, we have decided to shift BreyerFest 2020 Celtic Fling to an online experience, still taking place July 10-12, 2020. By making this decision now, we can deliver interactions with the Breyer community, access to special runs, fun BreyerFest merchandise, limited edition models for ticket holders, craft and activity workshops, live interviews, and more.

We are heart-broken not to be gathering in Kentucky this summer with you, our amazing fans, but we feel this is the safest option for all involved.  We are working urgently on plans for this virtual BreyerFest experience and hope to share what we know as soon as possible, no later than the end of this month.

We understand that you have lots of questions. However, we would request that you give us until the end of the month to publish a complete update, which will answer many, if not all, of them. As this is an evolving situation, we may not have worked out the details of all of the aspects of the event at this time, but are actively striving to do so. We appreciate your patience. We will share updates via email, on the website, here on the blog, and on our social media accounts.

Thank you for your patience and we look forward to updating everyone soon.

 

Gratefully,

 

Jaime, Kathryn, Jocelyn, Stephanie and the Entire Breyer Team

Hi my first Breyer fest

Elizabeth Gortmaker - June 29, 2020

I was really sad to hear from my friend that its online. It was going to be my first BreyerFest 😔 But my mom and I are thankful that we don’t have to travel 20hours to KY and 20 back 😂 I hope to go next year :)

My daughter is very excited as we couldnt afford to come this year so we are over the moon with the virtual show :)
I just logged online and brought a ticket today.

Thank you so much for doing this !

hi - April 30, 2020

how will the special runs get distributed evenly if its online?
what I’m trying to say is how will the special runs not sell out instantly if its online? what kind of system will you use? will it be free?
i have soooooooooo many questions! i hope they will all be answered1

Hey quick question, How will the diorama contest work with Breyerfest online.

What a tough decision, but it the right one for everyone’s health and safety.

I’ve never been to BreyerFest for various reasons, so am excited to be able to participate from a distance. I hope you have plenty of models ready to ship. My wish list has been compiled and I’m saving up for a spending spree.

And also please do not use discord or anything because I’m not allowed to use that

Will there be the kids jump off thing still? I think that would be very fun to do a virtual one

I am kind of sad that BreyerFest 2020 is cancelled, although I am really happy that you guys have decided to make it virtual this year due to the COVID-19 crisis. I am happy that you all have decided to make it virtual because that means that people who can’t make it to BreyerFest in Kentucky will be able to do it this way, like me. I have never gone to BreyerFest but have purchased BreyerFest models second-hand. I talked to my mom about doing this virtual BreyerFest and there is a big chance I will be doing it. I am the only one in my family who is a die-hard Breyer collector so when I read about virtual BreyerFest on your Instagram page I was really happy. I do feel bad for the people who were going to BreyerFest for their first time as I know from other people who have gone in the past that BreyerFest is a great experience and I do hope to attend in the future. Then again, this way, everyone who wants to attend can attend and it seems as though it would be a bit easier. No, it wouldn’t be the same as BreyerFest at the Kentucky Horse Park, but it will still be fun and I’m excited to join this year! Stay safe and have a wonderful rest of your day/evening!

I’m so so sad to hear that we wouldn’t be going to Kentucky this year😢 But at least it will be online. I’m glad the Breyer community is doing this for everyone’s safety and health. All the models and horses I was hoping to see and buy will still come into my Breyer family and heart thankfully☺️ I’ll miss the experience this year but I’m very thankful again for the wonderful Breyer community for the opportunity, allowing us still to get Special runs and all those fantastic models. They have been working very hard with making this very difficult decision. We all hope for the best and I just want to say I will miss all the joy and excitement but I’m happy I will still have the online experience😁
