The eight installment of the desert gathering of MINIs and Minis from all over America, Canada and countries abroad is returning to Las Vegas May 19-22, 2011 and will be hosted at Palace Station Hotel and Casino.

We will continue to update the schedule and provide information on group buys and other things to do while in the exciting City of Las Vegas. Attendees can register using this link ($25 until April 1st, $30 April 1 - Noon Pacific May 13) and Vendors can register using this one.

Check out our website, our NAM forum and our little corner on Facebook to stay up to date on the latest and greatest AMVIV news.

 

I went to the website but i didn't see info on past events....how many people/minis show up to an event like this?

 

Past AMVIVs have garnered anywhere between 250 and over 500 registered MINIs and Minis. The History page includes a section where past event coordinators discussed their experiences planning and executing this fun event.

We've got hopes for a great turnout. We've moved the event to a slightly warmer, and hopefully calmer weather period in mid-May. Lots of schools are out by this time, and folks might be better able to clear the calendars for a weekend getaway. In just 3 weeks, we've out to a strong start with 100 registrations.

Hope to see you!

 

This event looks like a lot of fun. Hopefully my schedule will allow me to attend.

 

I went to the one in 2008, and there were a ton of cool cars at Palace Station on the roof of that parking garage. The hotel itself is average, but cheap. The drive to Parumph (sp?) was the only one we did and it was great. We watched, but didn't drive, in the parade down the strip, and caught a great concert at the Hard Rock's Joint (best music room in town IMO). Nice gathering, and you can do it pretty cheaply.

 

I'm looking forward to the road trip to Vegas. I haven't been there before. Should be an eventful trip lol

 

The first AMVIV I went to there were 0ver 200 registered, last year I was number 289. Yes, more than 289 registered. Woooo Vegas Baby!!!

 

AMVIV8 is at the Palace Station again this year, it is economically advantageous for most, and the main strip is very close. The great thing about AMVIV moving to May is that the swimmers can take advantage of the pools.

 

For those of you considering the trip and can't seem to find all the info you need you can PM Julie/Neo II. She is very friendly and easy to talk to.
For anyone who owns a Mini AMVIV is a must do. At least once. I've been to the Dragon three times and loved it, but it's not VEGAS. This town doesn't close.

 

so true I have been to them all and coming for New Mexico lets all get together

 

anyone traveling from nyc?
