BreyerFest 2022 Frequently Asked Questions

 Right now, we have literally only hit the tip of the iceberg when it comes to BreyerFest information so this Guide post will be updated each time that information is released.

BreyerFest can be daunting and confusing some times or just overwhelming, but it is an absolute blast, whether you attend in person or virtually. These frequently asked questions are based on the questions that have been asked here in this group, not what Breyer has released.
*Do I have to purchase the Celebration Horse after I buy my ticket? No, your Celebration Horse automatically comes with your ticket. At the in person event, you will need to pick it up. The virtual attendees will have theirs sent to them.
*How many tickets can I purchase? Right now, there is absolutely no information about ticket limitations. We can assume that VIP tickets will be limited to one per address/email address and that it will be a lottery type sale. The others will likely have no restrictions other than what Breyer normally says- Breyer reserves the right to refund ticket prices at their discretion. We will know more when the tickets actually go on sale.
*When do BreyerFest tickets go on sale? Early 2022
*How will we be able to purchase Special Runs? This information is coming in time. However, in person events usually run the same unless otherwise notified. That means a long line, standing in the heat, and having a special ticket. You can see a sneak peek of previous Special Run practices in the BreyerFest for Beginners Guide as well in the Files. When we know more, I will update this section.
*I want to purchase a full set of Single Day Stablemates, will I be able to? Right now, we just do not have that information. When Breyer releases this information, this section will be update.
*I am attending a virtual event, why can't I buy Special Runs? First, I am sorry that you are unable to purchase them. Second, this is Breyer's decision and suggestions and complaints will need to be taken to them. But you are welcome to use our sale and trade group, The Guide's Sales And Trades, to find someone who will do a pickup for you.
*Do the Special Runs reflect breeds of Germany? No, the actual models will not reflect the breeds. However, their names will represent something about Germany, whether it is a location, a food item, and more. The Limited Editions are more apt to represent the German Horse Breeds.
*What are the differences in these crazy terms? There are many model types that will be available for BreyerFest. Some are available to everyone, some are only able to be won from the horse shows or the contests. You can read a lot more about them in our Let's Talk BreyerFest Guide. The ones that you will see the most are the following: Event Models, these are the models that come with your tickets. Celebration Horse, this is the model that comes with certain ticket types. Single Day Stablemates, these are the Event Stablemates that come with certain ticket types. Special Runs, these are the models that are able to be purchased by certain ticket types. Limited Editions, these are models that everyone is able to purchase. Limited Editions include Store Specials or portrait models, Tent Models, Pop Up Store models, and more. Those are just some that you will see daily.
*I am attending the in person event, where can I stay? Make sure to check out our BreyerFest for Beginners Guide as there is a section just for hotels and some phone numbers to call as well.
*Will I need a vehicle for the in person event? Yes, it is highly recommended to have some sort of transportation for the event.
*Is BreyerFest handicapped accessible? Yes, it is. There are some obstacles and it is hot and humid, however the event is accessible to everyone. Please check out the post in the BreyerFest for Beginners Guide about this.
*Can I bring a wagon to the event? While this is not prohibited, many BreyerFest veterans will tell you that bringing a wagon is not a good idea. It cannot be taken into the stores and it is hard to move around the Covered Arena with one. The best option is to store your models in your vehicle or hotel room.
*Since bags are not allowed in the Breyer Store and the Special Run Tent, will there be a bag check? Likely! In BreyerFest history, there has been up to two of these bag checks, one over by the Breyer Store and one by the Special Run Tent. These bag checks have no limit on how many that you can place there, but you can only keep it there for an hour.
*Is there food at the Park? Yes, there should be during the event. We will know much more as time for the event gets closer.
Right now, I am ending it here as we only know the very beginning of the information being released. If you notice any spelling or grammar errors, please message me.
Please do not comment about how you are upset over how this event will be taking place, mask mandates, the pandemic, how you are upset that not everyone can purchase a Special Run, and more. We are a positive group and I strive to keep it that way. Comments along these lines will be deleted immediately.
