'''Special 8''' is the eight and final special world that appears in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. It features 7 levels and the [[Toad House]]. Except Special 8-Crown, all levels in Special 8 must be unlocked by collecting Star Medals. Unlike other Special Worlds, the background music for the world (based on the "Mario Drawing Song" in ''Flipnote Studio'') is played. When Special 8-Crown is unlocked, that music is remixed.

'''Special 8''' is the eighth and final special world that appears in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', and the sixteenth and final world overall. It features seven levels and a [[Toad House]]. Except {{world link|s8|crown|Special 8-Crown}}, all levels in Special 8 must be unlocked by collecting a certain amount of [[Star Medal]]s, with the amount growing by ten with each level (except {{world link|s8|bowser3d|Special 8-Bowser}}, where it instead goes up by twenty). Instead of a remix of [[World 8 (Super Mario 3D Land)|World 8]]'s music, Special 8 instead rearranges [[the Mario Drawing Song]]. When {{world|s8|crown|Special 8-Crown}} is unlocked, that music is remixed, featuring more bass. Special 8 takes place in a light yellow meadow that highly resembles [[Grass Land]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', with large blocks, the same ground texture, and small hills highly resembling the ones found in ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', as well as [[Brick Block]]s, [[coin]]s and [[Warp Pipe]]s in the background. What sets this apart from the other Special Worlds is that while the others have all the levels available to begin with, the player must clear each level to access the next one (not unlike the progression of the regular worlds). Special 8 is the only special world to not imitate its regular numbered counterpart, in this case, World 8.
