Template:MKTTour The Los Angeles Tour was the twenty-seventh tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on September 23, 2020 and ended on October 6, 2020. True to its name, the tour introduced a new course named after Los Angeles, California, aptly named Los Angeles Laps, marking the first instance of a tour taking place in the same country as a previous tour (the New York Tour; both cities are in the United States), and the sixth city-based nitro course overall (with the last one being Vancouver Velocity in the Vancouver Tour, eight months prior). However, the track itself takes place in Santa Monica as indicated by the Santa Monica Pier and the course flags welcoming players to Santa Monica.

This tour took place during the game's first anniversary, although the game did not commemorate it until the next tour, the 1st Anniversary Tour.[1] It also introduced a new variant of Mario based on his Sunshine outfit from Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Odyssey. This tour also featured the first new R/T course since SNES Vanilla Lake 1R/T in the Trick Tour, being Los Angeles Laps R/T. The menu's background featured the Santa Monica Pier as the landmark for this tour.

Notes

The Los Angeles Tour reuses the Metal Mario Cup's bonus challenge from the Halloween Tour for this tour's Donkey Kong Cup, the Yoshi Cup's bonus challenge from the Paris Tour for this tour's Diddy Kong Cup, the Baby Mario Cup's bonus challenge from the Winter Tour for this tour's Hammer Bro Cup, and the Baby Rosalina Cup's bonus challenge from the Holiday Tour for this tour's Toad Cup.

Signature kart sets

In every cup, the driver which the cup is themed about is raised a tier on each track, making them a three- or two-item driver on that course. Up until the Ice Tour, a kart and a glider were also given a bonus for each race in the cup.
