'''Galaxy Arena''' ('''Galaxy Colosseum''' in North America) is a battle stage that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'' during special online tournaments. It is essentially a round platform situated in outer space, specifically a ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''/[[Rainbow Road]]-themed setting. Thus far, three tournaments have taken place on the arena.

'''Galaxy Colosseum''' (known as '''Galaxy Arena''' in the British English version) is an arena that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', exclusively during the online [[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments|Tournaments]] game mode. The arena is a round platform floating in outer space, modeled after similar platforms in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and [[Rainbow Road]]; in addition, the size of the battle stage would be adjusted depending on the tournament objective. Unlike the other courses in the game, its map lacked an outline, and was instead depicted as concentric circles representing the course's different sizes, with a transparent gradient on each. As with Rainbow Road, [[Star Bit]]s cameo in the background, though they are less brightly colored than normal.


Three tournaments took place on the arena, each with their own unique objectives. In the first tournament, players had to compete for the fastest time by knocking a total of four giant [[Spiky Topman|Spiky Topmen]] off of the arena's edge using only [[Triple Mushrooms]]. Players could knock them away with a Mushroom boost. In the second tournament, the outer rings of the arena broke off, and players had to send six Spiky Topmen off of the stage. In the third tournament, some Topmen could run away, and the outer rings no longer broke off.
In the tournament which took place between June 1st and June 10th, 2008, [[player]]s had to compete for the fastest time by knocking a total of four giant [[Spiked Topman|Spiked Topmen]] off of the arena's edge using only [[Triple Mushrooms]]. Players could knock them away with a [[Mushroom]] boost.


Due to the ending of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] service and subsequent end of Tournaments mode, it is no longer possible to play on this course through normal means.
Also, in the 2nd June tournament of the 15th to the 25th of 2009, it was the same, except the outer rings of the arena broke off, and players had to send six Spiky Topmen off of the stage.

For the 2nd tournament of March 2010, the player had to do the same as the 2nd June tournament of 2009 but with an exception: some Topmen could run away, and for this tournament, the player could use any Kart, Bike, or control scheme. Again, six was the required number to win.
