The details have been released for the 2012 MINI United festival.

It has been confirmed the open air MINI community gathering will return after a three year absence, and will take place at the Circuit Paul Ricard at Le Castellet in France from 11-13 May 2012.  The former Formula One track will play host to an event featuring live music, motor sport, stunt shows, driving experiences, exhibitions, and MINI community activities planned with the expected influx of MINI enthusiasts from around the world in mind.

The last MINI United festival, the MINI’s 50th Anniversary celebration, saw some 25,000 fans from more than 40 nations converge on the Silverstone racing circuit in Northamptonshire, and the marque is hoping the 2012 event will attract even greater numbers.  MINI have confirmed that the climax of the festival will be the exclusive unveiling of a new MINI model.

Full information, as well as updates, registration, and ticket and accommodation bookings are available on the festival’s dedicated website www.MINIspace.com/MINIunited.
