| | The Sydney Opera also appears in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as a traversable location in the first Sydney-themed race track [[Sydney Sprint]]. Inside, [[Toad (species)|Toad]]s, [[Shy Guy]]s, and Koopa Troopas appear as the audience. In the exit of the opera house there's a [[Glide Ramp]] that, once headed out of the opera, takes the player to the {{wp|Luna Park Sydney|Luna Park}}-inspired amusement park. |

|
| It is driven through in the first route of Sydney Sprint. A [[Glide Ramp]] launches players out of the Opera House and into the {{wp|Luna Park Sydney|Luna Park}}-inspired amusement park. In Sydney Sprint R and R/T, an additional Glide Ramp launches them into the Opera House instead, though the original ramp can still be seen. | | It also makes a minor appearance in the second Sydney-themed race track [[Sydney Sprint 2]], where the racers can only race near the building. The player can easily see the opera's interior briefly in the R and R/T variations of the course, where it can be seen that the audience is still present, despite the racers never going in there. |
| | |
| While it is not entered in Sydney Sprint 2 or Sydney Sprint 3, it is still visible. Inside the Opera House, most easily seen in Sydney Sprint 2R, the audience is still present, despite the racers never entering the building.

| {{classic link|Tour|Sydney Sprint}} returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as a [[classic course]]. Thus, the Sydney Opera House also returns. Racers glide out of it on the first lap like in the original Sydney Sprint. On the final lap, racers glide into it from the amusement park like in Sydney Sprint R. | | {{classic-link|Tour|Sydney Sprint}} returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'' as a [[classic course]]. Thus, the Sydney Opera also returns and serves the same functions as before. |
