==Trivia==
{{PMTTYD map}}
*In Japan, Glitzville is known as '''Ūron Machi''', which translates to '''Oolong Town''' (Oolong is a variety of Chinese tea). Perhaps oddly, the "Oolong Town" moniker actually survived on the Glitz Pit building's label on the official ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' website, although it was correctly referred to as "Glitzville" everywhere else.
*'''Tattles'''
*If [[Goombella]] tattles on [[Stewart]] that is in Glitzville, she will break through the fourth wall, even saying, "Oh, gosh. I just broke through the fourth wall there, didn't I? Sorry. Just forget it."
**"''Yup, this is Glitzville. It's so exotic; it feels like we're in another country! This is like an entertainment hub that attracts visitors from all over the world. The Glitz Pit is, obviously, the main attraction. That's where fighters duke it out. To the right: the Fresh Juice Shop. The Hot Dog Stand is to the left. Where to first?''" (GCN)
*When the camera pans across Glitzville at the start of Chapter Three, a poster of a Cleft can be seen behind the Hot Dog Stand, while no normal Clefts appear anywhere in Glitzville.
