The Summer Festival Tour was the twenty-fifth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on August 26, 2020 and ended on September 8, 2020. Reflecting its theme, the tour introduced a variant of Daisy in a yukata outfit and saw the return of Tokyo Blur's setting with a new layout, as well as the return of Tokyo Blur and Tokyo Blur 2. It was the first tour since the Baby Rosalina Tour to feature a course from a real-life location as well as the first tour overall to see the return of past real-life location tracks. The menu's background featured Mount Fuji, the Tokyo Tower, and Kaminarimon as landmarks for this tour.

Notes

The Summer Festival Tour reuses the Baby Daisy Cup's bonus challenge from the Paris Tour for this tour's Yoshi Cup, the Mario Cup's bonus challenge from the Winter Tour for this tour's Bowser Cup, and the Toadette Cup and Bowser Jr. Cup's bonus challenges from the Ice Tour for this tour's Lakitu Cup and Baby Rosalina 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.

Trivia

• This was the third tour in which the Vs. Mega (opponent) challenge did not appear in the final cup of the tour, the first two being the Tokyo Tour and the Peach Tour.
• This was the first time a course based on a real-life location did not have its R/T variation introduced at the same time as the other three variations.
