Daisy Circuit is the first course of the Star Cup in Mario Kart Wii. It is a tarmac road that drives through a seaside resort. The course travels across a seaside town with a sunset background on a shore, with the hills resembling those of the Muda Kingdom from Super Mario Land. The course follows Daisy's appearance, with various flower motifs found throughout the level. There is also a docking area with a lighthouse and cruise ships (including Daisy Cruiser from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!). Small baroque-style buildings can be seen from the background. In the figure-8 portion of the track, there are two circular fountains. On the top of the first fountain is a large golden statue of Daisy and Luigi dancing. The other statue shows Baby Luigi swinging Baby Daisy.

A remix of Daisy Circuit's music appears as one of the selectable songs in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games.

Despite it being a circuit course, Daisy Circuit does not use the main circuit theme of the game (the theme used for Luigi Circuit and Mario Circuit). Instead, it has its own unique theme to fit its seaside setting and character, which has some parts of the main circuit theme arranged.

Daisy Circuit reappears as a classic course in Mario Kart Tour starting with the Princess Tour.

The course takes place in a small town near the ocean at sunset, and the Daisy Cruiser can be seen in the background. The track begins on a straightaway that leads up to a sharp right turn into a town, where Toads, Piantas, Boos and Sledge Bros. line the streets. The road is slightly twisted and features traffic cones.

After the town, there are two fountains, one of Daisy and Luigi, and the other with Baby Luigi and Baby Daisy. Racers are then able to go either right or left of the fountains around them. There are Item Boxes around the second fountain. After the fountains is a small tunnel that leads to the right. Miis are present in this tunnel, cheering for the racer. Right after the tunnel, there is a straight road that leads to a large hairpin turn around the lighthouse. Soon after this, the player reaches a straightway that leads to a left turn going back leading to the finish line.

When the player is playing as a Mii, the heads of the fountains are replaced by Mii heads. Daisy and Baby Daisy are replaced by female Mii heads, while Luigi and Baby Luigi are changed to male Mii heads. The Daisy Cruiser that appears in the background scenery has its exhaust pipe colored gray instead of orange.

Shortcuts

A small shortcut can be taken here by going into a narrow staircase in the pink building. Since it is offroad, it slows the player if the player goes into it, meaning that an item like a Mushroom is required to take it. Dash Panels and an Item Box are in the shortcut.

Tournaments

A tournament took place on this course, where players had to pass through a total of 22 gates. This tournament was the second one for October 2009, and it was repeated as the first tournament of August 2011, the second tournament of October 2012, and the first tournament of January 2014.

Daisy Circuit makes its classic course debut in Mario Kart Tour starting with the Princess Tour. The starting line is now blue, and the logo is now the modern Mario Kart series one, with the colors across the logo no longer being a gradient; purple has been added to the color scheme as well. The road now has a blue tint. The streetlamps have been rotated 90° counterclockwise. The fountains are now one big fountain rather than multiple small fountains in a circle. The road in this section is now patterned instead of being a simple tarmac road, and most of the course's spectators have been removed. The statues have been redesigned slightly, with Daisy and Luigi's statues now lacking mouths, Daisy's statue lacking eyelashes, and Baby Daisy's statue now having its eyes open. The lighthouse appears to be turned off now. The Daisy Candy billboard uses a 2D artwork of Daisy instead of 3D artwork.

With Daisy Circuit's inclusion in Mario Kart Tour, every Daisy-themed course in the Mario Kart series, and all Star Cup tracks originating from Mario Kart Wii has appeared as a classic course at least once.
