The '''Grand Finale Galaxy''' is a special bonus level in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It takes place in [[Castle Gardens]] (also called [[Toad Town]] in the guide by [[Prima Games]]) from the beginning of the game, with creatures from earlier parts of the game now attending the [[Star Festival]], including [[Penguin]]s, [[Honeybee]]s, [[Gearmo]]s, and [[Star Bunny|Star Bunnies]], the four major [[MarioWiki:Glossary#N|NPC]] types in the game. The galaxy is unlocked after all 120 [[Power Star]]s have been obtained with both Mario and [[Luigi]], and is reached by talking to the fourth Green [[Luma]] on the [[Planet of Trials]]. This galaxy has the 121st Power Star for both Mario brothers. The [[Toad Brigade]] and their ship, the [[Starshroom]], are found outside of the castle. This is the only galaxy not mentioned in the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' [[Prima Games]] guide. This galaxy also contains the only [[Purple Coin]] mission that does not have the words "Purple Coins" in the name. It is also one of the two galaxies to have a Purple Coin mission not triggered by a [[Prankster Comet]], the [[Gateway's Purple Coins|other one]] being in the [[Gateway Galaxy]].


On the list of galaxies, it is simply called "'''Grand Finale'''", lacking the "Galaxy" name that all other galaxies use.
After the player has collected all the [[Purple Coin]]s, the [[Mailtoad]] will receive a message. If the player talks to him, he will send a congratulatory picture to the [[Wii Message Board]]. This picture differs depending on whether the player spoke to the Mailtoad as Mario or Luigi. If Mario speaks to him, the picture will show Mario and Peach standing on the [[Good Egg Galaxy#Starting Planet|Starting Planet]] of the [[Good Egg Galaxy]] with some Lumas, including the [[Baby Luma|apricot Luma]]. If Luigi speaks to the Mailtoad, the picture will feature Luigi and Rosalina standing in front of [[Peach's Castle]] with the Toad Brigade. The picture can also be sent to friends. In ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'', the "Yes" and "No" prompts are removed and the two images obtained from him are automatically sent to the [[Nintendo Switch]] album if the player talks to him.

This is the main planet of the Galaxy and where most Mario games take place. ''Super Mario Galaxy'' only shows Toad Town and Princess Peach's Castle though. The castle and the area around it is based off its look in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. the area contains a large lake with a river flowing into it and a pathway to Toad Town. The path goes through Toad Town and into the castle. There is an invisible wall, like the ones found at the limits of the levels in ''Super Mario 64'', that stops the player from entering the castle itself.

'''The Star Festival''' is the only level of the [[Grand Finale Galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. The mission requires the player to collect all 100 [[Purple Coin]]s. After getting them the player receives the 121st [[Power Star]]. However, before collecting the star, the player may talk to the [[Mailtoad]] to receive a congratulatory message and attached picture, which is sent to the Wii Message Board. It is named after the event at the beginning of the game, which occurs every 100 years.

==Trivia==
==Mission==
*Even if the big planet that is seen under most of the galaxies and even the Observatory is the [[Mushroom World]], the Grand Finale Galaxy seems to be located too far from this planet to be it. Either this means that the planet that is always seen is not the Mushroom World, or this is an error from the creators of the game. It is also a possibility that Grand Finale Galaxy is a different galaxy parallel to the Mushroom Planet, but this is impossible because the Toad Brigade returns to this galaxy after their adventures during previous galaxies (revealed during dialogue with the Toad Brigade and other Toads in the Grand Finale Galaxy) and can be actively encountered, which means this is obviously the place where they came from and thus the Mushroom Kingdom.  
This galaxy contains only the following mission.
*Although Peach's Castle is in the area explored, there is an invisible barrier blocking entry to the castle, possibly because the Peach's Castle area has not been designed and thus it is closed off from the player.
{{SMG missions table
*The area outside the castle is very similar to the area outside the castle in ''Super Mario 64'', except that various trees, signs, areas and the hedge maze have been removed and there is now a path to Toad Town.
|mission1=[[The Star Festival]]
*In ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', it is revealed that everyone's memories of the prequel were reset (save possibly [[Mario]] and [[Rosalina]]). Therefore, either the events of this galaxy take place after the sequel, or it is some kind of parallel universe (not unlikely, judging from "Super Luigi Galaxy").

The Grand Finale Galaxy is a special bonus level in Super Mario Galaxy. It takes place in Castle Gardens (also called Toad Town in the guide by Prima Games) from the beginning of the game, with creatures from earlier parts of the game now attending the Star Festival, including Penguins, Honeybees, Gearmos, and Star Bunnies, the four major NPC types in the game. The galaxy is unlocked after all 120 Power Stars have been obtained with both Mario and Luigi, and is reached by talking to the fourth Green Luma on the Planet of Trials. This galaxy has the 121st Power Star for both Mario brothers. The Toad Brigade and their ship, the Starshroom, are found outside of the castle. This is the only galaxy not mentioned in the Super Mario Galaxy Prima Games guide. This galaxy also contains the only Purple Coin mission that does not have the words "Purple Coins" in the name. It is also one of the two galaxies to have a Purple Coin mission not triggered by a Prankster Comet, the other one being in the Gateway Galaxy.

After the player has collected all the Purple Coins, the Mailtoad will receive a message. If the player talks to him, he will send a congratulatory picture to the Wii Message Board. This picture differs depending on whether the player spoke to the Mailtoad as Mario or Luigi. If Mario speaks to him, the picture will show Mario and Peach standing on the Starting Planet of the Good Egg Galaxy with some Lumas, including the apricot Luma. If Luigi speaks to the Mailtoad, the picture will feature Luigi and Rosalina standing in front of Peach's Castle with the Toad Brigade. The picture can also be sent to friends. In Super Mario 3D All-Stars, the "Yes" and "No" prompts are removed and the two images obtained from him are automatically sent to the Nintendo Switch album if the player talks to him. Additionally, the message from the Super Mario Galaxy staff that was originally sent to the Wii Message Board is now read out by the Mailtoad in-game.[1]

On the list of galaxies, this galaxy is simply called "Grand Finale", lacking the "Galaxy" name at the end that all other galaxies on the list have.
