The Anniversary Tour is the hundred-and-fifth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which will begin on September 20, 2023 and end on October 3, 2023. The tour celebrates the game's fourth anniversary; like the previous Anniversary Tour, it does not include its respective year in its name.
The tour introduces the third routes for Athens Dash, Rome Avanti and Madrid Drive, as well as the R/T variant for Berlin Byways 3. In addition to the new courses, Gold Mario debuts as a playable character outside of Coin Rush after almost four years. The Anniversary Tour is the final tour for Mario Kart Tour to introduce new content to the game. All tours following it recycle content from previous tours, starting with the Battle Tour beginning on October 4, 2023.[nb 1] It was announced in an in-game news post titled "About Upcoming Scheduled Tours" on September 11, 2023, much earlier than usual for tours. It is also the only tour to be announced in such a manner.
This is the last tour to feature the fourteenth set of Expert Challenges, which first appeared in the Night Tour.
