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

I have to agree with ReevesBreyer that this may be the best course of action; however, all those at Reeves involved in trying to wade through the nightmare of distributing special run models have my deepest sympathies!

Thanks

You guys should use Discord to host an online Breyerfest! It would be a lot of fun and if you know how to moderate things it would go wonderfully. Or you could get volunteers who know Discord to help. I’m head mod on a few servers and things are tons of fun there. I’d totally recommend!

I’m very sad to hear about this, of course, but I confess I’m also desperately curious as to the logistics of holding a virtual BreyerFest. Just the thought of doing it amazes me. At some point after BreyerFest, would you consider doing a behind-the-scenes overview/tour, and showing how you identified solutions to problems, how you implemented them, and what the results were? Thanks for everything you guys do, and see you in 2021!

Thank you for everything Breyer. I hope y’all can make everything work for the Virtual BreyerFest🤞

Thank you for putting safety first. I know it was a difficult decision… but it is absolutely the right decision. I know you will plan an AMAZING virtual event for us (minus all the sweat).

will it be free?

Stephanie Cox - April 13, 2020

Curious to see how this will work, but will still miss going to Kentucky… Oh well, hopefully we’ll get there in 2021!
Best wishes to everyone at Breyer as well as my fellow Breyer lovers!

I kind of like the sound of a virtual BreyerFest oddly enough. It’ll stink to miss out on seeing the real horses, but that’s okay. Thank you for everything your team does for us.
