I have an iPad Mini that I have had sense the fall. This morning I woke up and it was working fine. Now it won't turn on. I've tried all the regular fixes and nothing is working. Will the manufacturer warranty cover this? Should I take it to an Apple store?

You tried pushing and HOLDING the power button on the side? If the device is turned OFF, as opposed to sleep, it takes a few seconds of pressing for the power to kick in. – Wayfaring Stranger Mar 6 at 14:48

If you can't get it working, then yes, it will be covered by the warranty and you should take it to an Apple store. – Chris A Mar 6 at 20:01

Could the battery be dead? If so it may take 5 to 10 minutes hooked up to a wall charger before it will have enough power to reboot. Make sure you use the provided wall charger as most USB chargers don't have enough power and take a very long time to recharge iPads.
