<< List of tours >> |
The 2021 元旦 was the thirty-fourth tour of 元旦, which began on December 30, 2020 and ended on 2021年1月1日. Hence the name, the tour celebrated the new year of 2021. A new remix variation of SNES Rainbow Road, called RMX Rainbow Road 2, was introduced in this tour, while the Lakitu referee in his New Year's outfit worn since the 2020 Winter Tour became a playable High-End driver in the game, alongside Pauline (Party Time) and 菇 (Party Time) as the spotlight drivers for the first week. Additionally, every alternate variant of 馬里奧 (only excluding Mario (Musician) and Mario (Santa)) returned as the spotlight drivers for the second week. This tour's Coin Rush course was Vanilla Lake 1, which was reused from the Ice Tour. The menu's background featured the four bouncy mushrooms from RMX Rainbow Road 2 as the landmark for this tour.
Beginning with this tour, the Starchute is available in regular tour pipes, as well as the All-Clear Pipe. Starting from 2021年1月1日, . …kadomatsu were added to every course. Unlike in the 2020 元旦, hitting the kadomatsu did not award the player with points.
Similarly to the 第1名慶祝10週年紀年, there were special bonus challenges called 慶祝新一年角色 that awarded players with rubies upon completing a challenge

Trivia
- Despite festive trees not appearing in the New Year's 2021 Tour, one could be seen in the upper-middle area of the King Boo Cup's Break Item Boxes challenge.
- This is due to the fact that the icon in question came from the Holiday Tour, a tour that did have festive trees.
- In the Diddy Kong Cup, GBA Sunset Wilds R/T depicted Birdo (Yellow) on the icon despite it not being a favorite course.
