Mini Festival returns to Brands Hatch for a mighty celebration of the UK’s favourite small car. Hundreds of prized classic and modern Minis will gather together for the 13th edition of this treasured event.

Door-to-door action will ensue with classic Mini Miglias, Mini Se7ens and the Sanwa Trophy, hosting a packed grid of superbly presented pre-66 Minis. Little wheels will make big thrills in the returning ‘Fastest Mini in the World’ race, with MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT, Super Mighty and Mighty Minis bringing pocket rocket power.

A vast display of iconic Minis will shine proudly together around the legendary Indy circuit with an extensive trade area and plenty more for Mini enthusiasts to enjoy! The colossal charisma of these compact cars will shine in a grand finale track parade.
