Unfortunately, given these circumstances, we were unable to serve all of our Guests for the Pay Your Age Day event. We understand that many Guests were turned away as, due to safety concerns created by the crowds, authorities in certain locations closed Build-A-Bear stores and, in other locations, we were forced to limit the line. We feel it is important to share that, based on the information available to us before the day began, we could not have predicted this reaction to our Pay Your Age Day event. LOUIS – J– Build-A-Bear Workshop’s Pay Your Age Day event generated an overwhelming response, resulting in long lines, extensive waits and disappointed Guests. They are offering this very generous voucher because the 'Pay Your Age Day' event on Thursday had to be shut down early due to safety concerns and huge crowds.
