The Episode Where I Talk About Tickets and Models Again

Welcome back to another episode of RTB Episodes of Help. This episode is a refresher for those that are new to the group, but also for those that would like it. Remember that all of this information can be found in the Files as well as under the Post Topics under both the BreyerFest Virtual Event Planning Post Topic and the RTB Episodes of Help. This episode will go over the tickets, what comes with the tickets, the models that you can purchase with the tickets, and what to expect during BreyerFest with the tickets that you have. So let’s get started!

First, I want to say that there is no set limit on how many tickets that you can purchase. It is said that the limit is six All Access Tickets, but there has been nothing to confirm nor deny this information. So you are free to buy as many as you want, however keep in mind that Breyer has stated in their FAQs that they reserve the right to monitor and refund ticket purchases at their discretion.

There are three ticket tiers this year, however two of them are the only ones that are available for purchase right now. The VIP Ticket was offered this year for the first time ever and it sold out very, very quickly with only 1000 tickets being available for this first year. The All Access Ticket is the next ticket that is available and it is still available for purchase. This ticket is the same as the Three Day Tickets of past years and will provide the same amount of access to the event. And last, but certainly not least is the General Admission Ticket, which is the same as the Single Day Ticket, but will allow you to have access to the event for all three days. But let’s got a bit more in depth with each ticket.

The All Access Ticket is the same as the Three Day Tickets that have been offered in the past. This ticket will come with ONE Celebration Horse Model. It comes with the ability to purchase up to two Special Run Models with each ticket purchased. This is two models for the whole weekend, not per day. With these two models, they must be two different models, so no two Surprise Models! It also comes with the ability to purchase all of the Limited Edition Models at the event. With this ticket, you are able to access the workshops, enter the contests (rules and conditions apply), enter the Photos Shows (terms and conditions apply), enter the virtual 5K (terms and conditions apply), have access to all three days of the activities, and more. The Terms and Conditions on the Breyer website must be read this year since there have been many changes to all of the contests and shows to go along with this format of event. Links for these pages can be found in the Announcement section here in the group, pinned to the very front with the photos of the BreyerFest horses at the bottom. This ticket costs $75.

The General Admission Ticket is nearly the same as the Single Day Tickets that have been offered in the past. This ticket will come with ONE randomly selected Event Stablemate Model, these are the decorator Stablemates that have the names of Dada, Noveau, Rococo, and Avant Garde. This ticket will allow you to purchase all of the Limited Edition Stablemates. You can NOT purchase any of the Special Run Models with this ticket. With this ticket, you will be able to attend all three days of the event, you can view the Seminars, the Equus Film Festival, as well as the Hands On Hobby Demonstrations. With the General Admission Ticket, you are NOT able to attend the workshops, participate in the Photo Shows, or participate in the contests. This ticket is $20.

After you have purchased one of these two tickets, you then have the choice to purchase one set of the Event Stablemates. This is an add on to your ticket and will cost $80 at the time when you add it to your cart. These are the four decorator Stablemates. These are the ONLY models that you will NEED to pay for before the event in July.

Models will NOT ship out until July. This includes the Celebration Horses, the Event Stablemates, and all of the models that were purchased with the VIP tickets (This ticket will be at the bottom since it has already sold out).

Special Run Models are models that are available to the VIP Ticket Holders and the All Access Ticket Holders ONLY. With one ticket, you are allowed to purchase up to two Special Run Models (VIP Ticket required you to purchase two) and they must NOT be the same model. There are nine models available in this section and all can be seen in the BreyerFest 2021 Photo Album here in the group or on the Exclusive Model page on Breyer’s Website. These nine models range in price from $60 to $85 and are limited in production numbers. The All Access Ticket Holders will be able to select their chosen models in June using the Special Run Preference List. This List allows you to arrange the Special Run Models in the way that you like them best and Breyer will use this list to randomly select two models for you to purchase during the weekend of BreyerFest. This method allowed many people to purchase their top choices last year, but not all of them were the very top choices. Make sure to check out our previous posts about the Special Run Preference List as it will go into great detail of what will happen during that time. General Admission Ticket Holders can NOT purchase Special Run Models.

Limited Edition Models can be purchased by all ticket holders. These models also have some that are available to be back ordered in case you miss the initial release of these models. There are three Traditional Sized Models, which are all portrait models of horses that will be showcased during the event. There is one Freedom Series or Classic Sized model, which is a decorator model that showcases the theme of the event. There is one set of Stablemates that take you back to BreyerFest FairyTales and showcases five of the models released for that event. There is one Crystal model that is on the Sherman Morgan Model. There is one Plushie that has NOT been revealed yet. There is one single Limited Edition Stablemate that has NOT been revealed yet. The three Traditional Sized Models, the Classic Sized Model, and the Stablemate set can all be back ordered during the event. The Crystal model, the unrevealed Plushie, and the unrevealed Stablemate cannot be back ordered during the event.

Back Ordering the Limited Edition Models can happen at any time during the weekend of BreyerFest. They will ship in December, but are NOT guaranteed for the Holidays. These models will NOT be glossy like they were last year. These models will be shipped using the BreyerFest Shipping methods, which can be found in our FAQs as well as on the FAQs on Breyer’s website. These models are able to be back ordered due to the popularity of the models for the BreyerFest event. This technically an open run on the models that can be back ordered and final number will NOT be published until after the first of the year.

And Finally since it was sold out so fast, the VIP Ticket. The VIP ticket came with ONE Celebration Horse Model, ONE set of Event Stablemates, Two Special Run Models (must have been two different models), two Limited Edition Models (must be two different models), ability to purchase Limited Edition Models during the event, ability to enter the Photo Shows, ability to enter the contests, ability to participate in the workshops, ability to participate in special VIP workshops, access to the activities for all weekend, a special VIP Swag Bag, free shipping, and more.

There is likely much more that will be released as we are still waiting on the information about the Auction, the Raffles, the Contest Prizes, the Photo Shows, and more! As soon as they are all posted, I will be sharing them here in the group along with the links to their respected pages on the website. I will also be doing these Help episodes on them when that information is released as well. I hope that this has helped you and I look forward to this adventure with you!
