What’s Included With My BreyerFest Tickets?

BreyerFest tickets went on sale a few short weeks ago – if you missed that, you can snag yours here!  For our in-person ticket holders, we’ve got four awesome ticket types you can choose from – VIP, All-Access, Fan, and General Admission.

In addition to this year’s stunning Event Models and Special Run Models (you can see which models your ticket type includes here), BreyerFest tickets include so much more – it’s not just about models and shopping!

All in-person BreyerFest tickets include admission to the beautiful Kentucky Horse Park for all three days of the event, as well as a host of other incredible activities, most of which are free for you to participate as inclusions in your ticket purchase! 

All-Day Equine Entertainment

In addition to the model horses, the real horses who come to BreyerFest are definitely fan-favorites.  BreyerFest is proud to host more than 200 live horses over the weekend, including our beautiful Celebration Horse and this year’s Limited Edition Portrait Horses, alongside more than a dozen other demo groups and performers.  These equine stars will be performing during the day in the Covered Arena, which is the heart of BreyerFest, and will be available up at their stalls when not performing for pictures and pets.  The complete equine demo schedule will be released when the event program is published, approximately two weeks before BreyerFest.

Autographs

If you’re looking to meet this year’s Portrait horses, and select returning horses from previous years, head on over to our Autographs tent!  These equine stars and their owners, riders, or trainers, are looking forward to meeting you and taking photos!  The autograph schedule will be released when the event program is published, approximately two weeks before BreyerFest.

Craft Tent & Hands-on Hobby Tent

These two tents are located right next to each other in the Walnut Schooling Ring, which is right next to the Covered Arena in the heart of BreyerFest.  Here, you will find FREE Stablemates painting all weekend long as well as our amazing hands-on hobby activities, including the mini mock model horse show.  Also returning for 2026 will be the incredible Anne Field, who will be hosting her clinic on judging model horses each day of the weekend.  All of these activities are free to participate in (though Anne’s clinic will require pre-registration due to space) and are included in the cost of your admission to the event.  A schedule for the specific activities taking place in the Hands-on Hobby Tent, including when classes in the mock model horse show will take place, will be included in the event program, published approximately two weeks prior to BreyerFest.

Seminars & EQUUS Film Series

Need a break from the sun?  The BreyerFest Seminar series and the EQUUS Film Festival are hosted in the Visitor Information Center theater and are a great excuse to cool off!  Seminar presenters in 2026 will include the fabulous Robin Hutton, the always-informative Kim Bjorgo, horse color expert Lesli Kathman, and more to be announced!  On Sunday, the EQUUS Film & Arts Festival will be presenting a selection of short equine-themed films from this year’s festival entries for exclusive viewing at BreyerFest.  A complete schedule of seminars will be announced in the coming weeks and the film selection will be in this year’s event program.

Celebration Park

Cross the bridge by the Collector Club Tent into Celebration Park for a whole world of free activities!  Enjoy pony rides for kids, our kids jumps contest (you can even compete with your hobby horse, if you want!), petting zoo, Big Dig sand pit, dog agility, and a selection of this year’s educational partners!  This is also where our beer garden and many of our food vendors are, and while those things aren’t free, sitting in the shade is!

There is so much to enjoy at BreyerFest that is included with your tickets, we hope you take advantage of it all!
