BreyerFest Never Say NEIGH-ver 5K

Join us this summer, July 12-14, 2024, when we celebrate BreyerFest: Against All Odds!   Each horse has a unique story to tell, from the backyard buddy to the champion’s circle, and while each of these stories has a happy ending, some had difficult chapters along the way.  BreyerFest 2024: Against All Odds, our third hybrid event, will share these stories of triumph over adversity, advancement in the face of disbelief, and defying expectations at every turn.  Fans will be inspired by these incredible stories of equine empowerment!

Take some time and go for a run (or walk!) with us at the BreyerFest© Never Say Neigh-ver! 5K Run/Walk on Sunday morning July 14, 2024!  After the race, participants are invited to spend their afternoon seeing all the beautiful sights of the Kentucky Horse Park as part of BreyerFest© 2024!
