Aspers Northampton has enjoyed great success in its first year of operation and has quickly established itself as the premier venue in the East Midlands for live entertainment. Aspers has decided to offer the 'Mini-for-Me' prize as a thank you to the region, who have welcomed the venue with open arms over the last 12 months.
Mark Darnell, General Manager of Aspers Northampton, said:
"The response from the public in our first year of opening has been phenomenal and that is why we wanted to give something back by launching the 'Mini-for-Me' competition. Before we opened, we made a promise to the East Midlands that they would have a premier leisure venue that would be the hub of entertainment, offering everything for a great night out, from fine dining through to live entertainment.
"The number of people coming into our venue from outside the town of Northampton is a huge bonus, and is a clear indication of how Aspers is fast becoming one of the most forward thinking and innovative leisure brands across the UK, where it seems everyone wants a taste of the action. With a broad range of customers coming through the doors every week now, including men, women, couples and students, we are certainly showing ourselves to be an all round entertainment venue."
The 'Mini-for-Me' competition, which is being launched via the website, www.miniforme.com, will be the biggest competition that Aspers Northampton have run in the region.
Judy Watson, from Bedford, is one of the latest visitors outside of the town to make the trip to Aspers Northampton. She said:
"You can't beat live entertainment for an evening out and Aspers certainly delivers this on all fronts. The place has brought something different to the region, which my husband and I have been searching for - where else can you go for a five star meal, enjoy live performance, chill out in the bar and even have a quick flutter?
"We continually look out for all the deals and initiatives being launched in the region and Aspers Mini-for-Me competition is certainly one of those that has grabbed our attention. It's not everyday you get a chance to win a brand new Mini, so we will definitely be entering and hopefully using it for our regular commute to Aspers next time round!"
Aspers Northampton is a 30,000 ft leisure facility, encompassing two floors, with enough space for 800 people to enjoy a night out. There are two bars on site as well as a contemporary restaurant, Clary's, which offers some of the city's finest cuisine.

The gaming offer at Aspers includes 16 live gaming tables, 34 electronic roulette terminals and 20 slot machines as well as providing special areas for groups who want to play poker.
