The Mini Festival is back at Brands Hatch on Sunday, 3rd August 2025, promising an unmissable day of track action, show-stopping displays, and Mini-themed entertainment. Now in its 13th edition, this much-loved event brings together hundreds of prized classic and modern Minis, celebrating the UK’s most iconic small car in style.
Expect door-to-door racing as Mini Miglias, Mini Se7ens, and the Sanwa Trophy battle it out on the famous Indy circuit. The ‘Fastest Mini in the World’ race is set to return, showcasing blistering speed and fierce competition. Adding to the adrenaline-fuelled spectacle, MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT, Super Mighty, and Mighty Minis will bring their signature pocket rocket power to the grid.
Beyond the track, a stunning display of classic and contemporary Minis will line the venue, giving enthusiasts a chance to admire some of the finest examples of this beloved marque. The event also features an extensive trade area, offering everything from Mini parts and accessories to memorabilia and merchandise.
A particular highlight of the day will be the grand finale track parade, where Minis of all shapes and sizes will take to the circuit for a fitting tribute to this legendary car.
Having attended the festival last year and even taking my Mini Clubman JCW on track, I can personally vouch for what an incredible event this is! You can read about my first-ever Brands Hatch track experience here: Driven by Rhys – My First Track Experience.
