What Comes With Each Ticket BreyerFest 2021
Just what comes with my BreyerFest 2021 Tickets?
This year, with the move to a virtual event, the ticket types have changed completely. However, there are many things that are still the same from year to year, especially when it comes to what tickets can purchase what models. But with this virtual change, there have been so many new people to this event that just saying oh, you get the normal with this ticket doesn’t really make sense. There have been several posts about what comes with each ticket, but I feel that it is best to make a file so that you have a reference point to come back to whenever you need to! So let’s get into it!
This year, there are three types of tickets. They are VIP, All Access, and General Admission. With each ticket type, there are certain things that are different and certain things that are the same. Each ticket type allows you access to the BreyerFest pages on Breyer’s website for all three days. Each ticket type comes with some form of model. Each ticket type allows you to purchase certain BreyerFest models. And more! But each ticket is different in their own ways.
The first ticket to talk about is the VIP ticket. This was a new ticket that was added this year. It was announced back in January and went up for a lottery type sale in mid January. 800 accounts were chosen to purchase this ticket, using a lottery type entry as well as a wait list for the remaining tickets. The remaining 200 tickets (a 1000 total tickets were available) went up for sale as a first come first served event on February first. Those tickets sold out in less than six minutes. These tickets were $275 as a base price, but then you were required to pay for two Special Run models and two Limited Edition Models. The end price was around $450 to over $600. These tickets also came with just about everything that could be offered from BreyerFest. You receive one Celebration Horse Model (Danash’s Northern Tempest), one set of the Event Stablemates (these are the decorator stablemates with the purple Fjord), guaranteed two Special Runs of your choice (must be two different models from the Special Run selections), two guaranteed Limited Editions of your choice from the Limited Edition Selection available at the time, access to purchase all of the Limited Editions during the event, access to participate in the model horse shows, access to participate in the contests, access to the workshops, access to the seminars, access to the Celebration of Horses Evening Performance, access to special VIP only workshops, a special VIP only grab bag, access to participate in the Auctions, and free shipping worldwide. I am very likely missing more that is available, but these were all of the attention grabbing ones that people definitely attempted to get the ticket for! This ticket truly was a unicorn when it went up for sale.
The next ticket is the All Access Ticket. This ticket costs $75 and is still available to purchase. While this ticket does not come with everything that the VIP ticket does, it still comes all of the options to make it one amazing BreyerFest! This ticket comes with one Celebration Horse Model, access to purchase up to two Special Runs using the Special Run Preference List (see the Special Runs and the Special Run Preference List post for more help), access to purchase all of the Limited Editions during BreyerFest, access to enter the model horse shows, access to enter the contests, access to participate in the workshops, access to the Celebration of Horses Evening Performance, access to participate in the Auctions, and likely more that I am missing. With this ticket, you have the ability to purchase the Event Stablemate Set after your ticket purchase. This add on Set costs $80 and is the only models that you will be purchasing being BreyerFest.
The last ticket option is the General Admission Ticket. This is the least expensive ticket of all of them. This ticket costs $20 and is still available to purchase. This ticket comes with one randomly selected Event Stablemate, access to purchase all of the Limited Edition models during BreyerFest, access to the Celebration of Horses Evening Performance, access to participate in seminars, access to participate in the 5K, and likely more that I am missing. Please note that purchasing four General Admission tickets does not guarantee that you will receive all four of the event Stablemates. The only guaranteed way to get all four of the Event Stablemates is purchasing the add on set for $80 once you have purchased your ticket.
With the All Access and General Admission tickets, there is special Shipping prices just for this event. The complete details can be found in our BreyerFest Shipping post, but the general basis is Domestic US is free, Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii is $10, and all International is $25.
I hope that this information helps you in deciding what ticket is best for you or learning more about what comes with the tickets that you have purchased.
