The stage is an oval shape with three jump ramp areas. The first trick area has a side with three lumps in a row with dash panels on each. The other side of this same trick area is a small incline with a dash panel rim going all the way around. The centered and most prominent trick area is a steep incline on one side and down the other, covered in dash panels. The opposite side is the same way, only this side has a tunnel going through it. The third trick area has a wall with a vertical dash panel on each side. The other part of this trick area has the same square dash panel formation as the first. The whole stadium has vertical dash panels running around the entire rim. There are two ramps on either side of the stadium, allowing the kart drivers access to an area up near the stands.

The first ramp is located at one end of Funky Stadium. It features a half-square sticking off to the side, lined with ramped Dash Panels.

Course layout[edit]

Funky Kong competes in a Coin Runners battle at Funky Stadium, in Mario Kart Wii.
Funky Stadium during gameplay

Funky Stadium is the largest Battle Course of the game. At the start of the battle, racers are located in the far corners of the map in groups of three. They drive down a slope and boost off a series of Dash Panels before entering the main stadium.

Funky Stadium has three large Ramp structures for racers to perform tricks on. Racers can collect Item Boxes by driving through some of the ramps. A few sand pits are scattered around the stadium, each with an Item Box in the center. Funky Stadium has half-pipes surrounding the rim, with a few gaps that racers can go through to drive in a location up near the stands.

The first ramp is located at one end of Funky Stadium. It features a half-square sticking off to the side, lined with ramped Dash Panels. The Item Boxes are easier to reach because they float a little bit over the ramp. The Dash Panels boost players over a wall in the middle of the structure. The other side features a large, near-vertical ramp leading onto a flat surface, and a tight knot of Item Boxes floats above it. They can only be reached if racers perform tricks off the ramp. The other two sides feature a ramped up portion of a half-pipe, each with two floating Item Boxes above them.

The second ramp is in the center of the stadium, and is located directly under the Barrel dashboard depicting Funky Kong. It is the largest ramp in the stadium, with four identical sides that have two Dash Panels up a steep incline. Racers can race above the structure and collect a large group of floating Item Boxes arranged in an X shape and race off the opposite end. If racers do not perform a trick, they may potentially land on top of the structure, which also has some Item Boxes. They can quickly race down the slope from the Dash Panels.

The third ramp is located on the opposite side of the first one. It is a row with three lumps, with a Dash Panel on each one. Racers can perform tricks from them. The other side is a small incline with a dash panel rim going around. Unlike the previous two ramps, the third ramp only has two sides rather than four.
