This sounds more like a major game like TT, Virminion, or Chocobo Racing than a mini-game though.

Every class can solo though. All the classes (except tanks) have about the same survivability anyway and they can even fix that by only allowing classes (no jobs) in the arena. Or you know, adjust the handicaps and mobs for different classes. Although it's probably not needed.

You know I wouldn't mind a call back to the original FF games. I have zero idea how it would work but having teams of 3v3 or such participate in an old style turn based fight. One action per person, I suppose like with PvP have new skills for each class that are only used in this event or branch of the Gold Saucer with some only some skills being allowed for use. Perhaps in the range of fairness both teams have to pick a target and action within 15-30sec per turn.

Example
Ninja instead of having the 3 hit combo (thus 3 turns) have a skill that would be the primary attack. Though they may use stealth to dodge one attack or until next turn.
White mage would not have benediction but Aero would still be a "Poison" in such that it damages the target each turn.
Paladins cover would still act the same but only for say limited strikes of the person.

Just throwing the idea out, I'm like half asleep now as I am writing this but wanted to at least get it out xD

How about this?

Blitzball!

Though I think Limsa would be a better location for a Blitzball stadium, the Gold Saucer is a good place too.

They could make arenas specific to the classes/jobs. Sort of like how classes have their own hunting log.

I'll second the idea of there being a battleship mini game.

I'd also support blitzball!
