Mario & Zelda Big Band Live is a series of two concerts held on September 14, 2003, at Nihon Seinenkan Hall in Tokyo, Japan. It featured arrangements of various pieces of music from the Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda franchises.

DVD and CD recordings of various pieces of music from the two concerts, titled Mario & Zelda Big Band Live and Mario & Zelda Big Band Live CD, respectively, were released in Japan. The DVD was bundled with volume 101 of Nintendo DREAM, which released on November 21, 2003,[1] and the CD was released on December 10, 2003.[2] Both releases feature largely the same tracklist, with one exception; only the CD release includes an arrangement of "Secret Course" from Super Mario Sunshine.
