Lincoln Big Mini Day Sunday 16th April

Post by Wally2 »

Lincoln Big Mini Day Sunday 16th April

Run by the Trent Valley Mini Owners Club at Brayford Wharf Waterfront (LN1 1YX) in central Lincoln.
Lincoln BIG Mini Day 2017 will be the 10th year and has attracted Mini enthusiasts, both classic and BMW, from many areas of the country including Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire, Derbyshire and ,of course, Lincolnshire. Participants enjoy talking to like minded people but also are able to take advantage of the close proximity to the city centre where there is a wide range of retail outlets. Also available, both on the Brayford Wharf area and the city centre, are restaurants and cafe's to suite all tastes.

Participants are requested to arrive at Brayford Wharf via Lucy Tower Street and to be in position by 10am so to get a good area you need to be there as early as possible because you will be parked on a "first come first served" basis. Over 200 Mini's are expected as in past years. Cars must remain in position until 4pm. This is a fabulous day for mini enthusiasts and should not be missed. There is no entry fee which helps but please visit the charity stands who are in attendance. P.S. Late comers may not get a place!

Thanks to the members of Trent Valley Mini Owners Club this event has become a very popular and enjoyable day for all who attend so make sure this date is in your diary.

Please Note: The event is from 10am to 4pm and no movement of cars is allowed within these times as stipulated by Lincoln City Council. This will be strictly adhered to.

We had five Mokes and a Midas there last year and we attracted quite a lot of attention.
See the gallery for photos of this years event.

There is no entry fee.

Excellent, do you have any plans to meet up before you arrive. I may be able to meet with you before you get to Lincoln. Have you any idea what sort of time you plan on getting there?
