Contests
Contests at BreyerFest allow fans to show their creativity and imagination with Breyer models. Whether you are a seasoned artist or just discovering the Breyer hobby there is a contest you can participate in! BreyerFest’s Diorama contest is perfect for artists of all skill levels. In this contest, entrants create a scene based on each year’s unique theme, for example, recreating a pop culture moment or their favorite Breyer memory. The Diorama Contest is open to VIP, All-Access, or Online Traditional Access ticket holders. BreyerFest’s Best Customs contest showcases the best of the best of the Breyer hobby where more experienced artists transform Breyer models based on the division they enter. To enter, you must be a VIP or All-Access ticket holder.
Winners of each contest are announced during BreyerFest weekend. Images of all the entries submitted will be displayed on the website throughout the weekend so all ticket holders can see the incredible pieces of art their fellow horse lovers created.
