MINI United 2012 - Paul Ricard France 11-13th May

The fourth edition of MINI United is here. From the 11th to 13th of May 2012, MINI fans, owners and lovers from all over the world will flock in their own cars to Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet, France. There, they’ll find an open-air festival with a unique program of racing, test-drives, motorsport events and music. Be there to follow the action with MINI Space.

More Details:
MINI Space - Events - MINI United 2012 - creative projects, competitions, events, thoughts and ideas, by MINI



"Some 25,000 fans from more than 40 nations flocked to Silverstone in England for the MINI United festival in 2009 to celebrate not only the third Community catch-up but also the 50th anniversary of the brand’s founding. However, the Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet offers enough space for even the Silverstone masses to be exceeded in number. Indeed, the event programme is richer in depth and variety than ever before. Live appearances by leading lights of the international music and DJ scene, fun sporting activities, stunt shows and driving experiences on the track, exhibitions of accessories, current MINI and Classic Mini cars on display, and the exclusive presentation of a new MINI model ensure an attractive blend of al fresco party, shared experience and MINI action in every shape and form.
An extensive entertainment programme for younger MINI fans is guaranteed, as are a broad spread of culinary treats laid on by various restaurants, bars and catering stations. Other essential features of a MINI United festival are the MINI Club Area and Beauty Parking, which serves as both a car park and stage for the more strikingly styled members of the MINI fleet. Indeed, for the majority of the fans at the fourth MINI United festival, driving to the venue in their own MINI will be the perfect way of getting into the mood for a weekend among the MINI Community."

We're going to be in France next may, possibly in a (hired) MINI. However, I just found out the Paul Ricard circuit is in the South of France, and we're going to be around Paris/Normandy.
