Brian PetersManaging Director Brian is the Managing Director of Bucket List Events, overseeing all sales, operations, and partnerships. He has been with Bucket List Events since 2013 and has introduced innovative event concepts since then. Brian wouldn’t miss the Masters for anything. |

Toby AtkinsManaging Director Toby oversees our annual international events, including the Running of the Bulls and Oktoberfest. An encyclopedia of completely useless information, Toby has found a profession where he can actually apply such knowledge. Raised in the Southeast, educated in the Northeast, and now residing in the Southwest, this well traveled Tennessean probably knows your high school mascot. |

Rich BeardDirector of Operations Rich has been providing travel experiences to large international sporting events and festivals since 2004. You’re more likely to find Rich working as he travels around the world than you are at his home in Texas. If he is not at one of our events, he is probably researching a new experience, discovering a new place or traveling somewhere fun. He never passes up the opportunity to experience new things and he loves making it possible for others to check items off their bucket lists! |

“”They set up things I couldn't have even dreamed of doing, or planned myself. The team was extremely friendly and helpful, you can tell they LOVE what they do. Thanksgiving 2021 in NYC, check that off the bucket list in the most special way ever! Thank You Bucket List!!
“”Very grateful to the Bucket List Events team for helping us craft a wonderful itinerary for the 2021 Kentucky Derby. Despite the ever-changing status of the event given the pandemic, Ben and the team ensured a wonderful and memorable weekend for our group. Looking forward to partnering again on a future event!
“”Extremely happy traveling to the June 2021 Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon. Toby was an awesome knowledgeable, personable guide. The tickets to the events and hotel accommodations were superb. This was my first time traveling with Bucket List, but it won’t be my last.
“”A big shout out to Bucket List Events. Thank you for guiding us through the ticketing process and securing us fantastic seats [at Churchill Downs]. We also appreciated all of the wonderful suggestions of things to do while in the area. You definitely went above and beyond. We had an amazing weekend!"
“”We really enjoyed our trip to New York to see the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade! Ben, Brian and Rich did an amazing job to make sure we all of our needs were taken care of. Looking forward to doing it again next year! Thanks, guys!
“”My daughters and I enjoyed the trip of a life time to New York City with Bucket List Events. Their attention to details was amazing! The parade experience could not have been better! We loved every minute of our time in the city. They truly made this experience a dream come true! Thank you so much. I recommend them 100%.
“”We could not have been more impressed with Bucket List Events during the Running of the Bulls this past summer. Toby and his staff were exceptional. They were knowledgeable, accommodating, fun, and very inclusive. It was an unforgettable experience, with great memories and great people to share it with. I will look forward to checking more items off my Bucket List with this company!!
“”Traveled with my parents, wife, and two oldest boys this year and Bucket List Events did not disappoint. First class service! The Hospitality area and base camp were fantastic. Shuttle to and from the course made it stress free. Wednesday practice round allowed my sons to high five the vast majority of current players and legends of the game. The North Augusta home that was secured for us was nothing short of amazing. I would not hesitate to use Bucket List again and quite certain my family will on other future events.
“”We had a 15 person trip to Oktoberfest this September and the whole trip, end to end was brilliant. All of our party was more than pleased with all aspects - Bucket List Events exceeded our expectations and we are thankful for such a fun and smooth trip!!
“”"Me and my friend recently booked a trip with Toby and his crew for the running of the bulls and needless to say it was fantastic. Everyone worked so hard to make the trip as easy and fun as possible. They completely took the guess work out of the whole trip. One of the best trips I ever took and I will be booking my next event with them for sure."
