Festive tree
Festive trees[1] are objects that appeared in Mario Kart Tour. At least one was added in every course in the 2019 and 2020 Winter Tours, as well as in the London and Holiday Tours. They were removed from the game in the second week of the Holiday Tour, after Christmas of 2019 ended, and brought back in the first week of the 2020 Winter Tour.
Festive trees are planted inside pipes and are decorated with red ribbons, lights, tinsels of various colors and a Super Star-like crown on top. When a driver gets near a festive tree, they can hear sleigh bells. Festive trees shake and give bonus points when hit with a type of shell or a Bob-omb, or when driven into while invincible or Mega; the action is displayed as "Happy Holidays!"
