| '''Swanky's Dash''' is a location operated by [[Swanky Kong]] in the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Donkey Kong Country 3]]''. It replaces every [[Swanky's Sideshow]] from the original version. There is a Swanky's Dash in every world, each having a different stage, except [[Krematoa]]. Swanky charges two [[bear coin]]s each time the mini-game is played. If Dixie collects most of the stars along her way, she wins the mini-game. Rewards for completing the minigame include [[bear coin]]s, [[Banana Bunch]]es, and a [[Red Balloon]]. Completing Swanky's Dash for the first time also earns Dixie and Kiddy a [[Banana Bird]]. | |

| ==Gameplay==
| | Entering this area allows the heroes to meet [[Swanky Kong]], who is willing to give them a [[Banana Bird]] if they complete his Bonus Game, which costs two [[Bear Coin]]s to play. During the game, [[Dixie Kong]], who is the only playable [[Kong]] old enough to play the game, must run through a pipeline and collect many stars. There are over 100 stars in each stage, and she has to move all around the perimeter of the pipeline to grab them. However, as she runs, she has to watch out for spiky balls, as hitting into them causes her to drop all of the collected stars. At the end of the Bonus Game, Swanky Kong gives out extra Bear Coins and [[Banana Bunch]]es to the apes, as well as his single Banana Bird. |

| Swanky's Dash is a virtual-reality game. In it, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] ([[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] cannot participate because Swanky says he is too young) runs through a pipeline filled with small stars and explosive [[Spike Ball|spiky obstruction]]s. There are 100 stars in every stage, where Dixie has to grab the stars by moving all around the perimeter of the pipeline, and she has to try as many of them within 45 seconds. If Dixie hits a spiky obstruction, she loses every star that she collected. Every stage has a unique layout, with later ones including more spiky obstructions.

| Entering "EXTRAS" from the Cheats menu unlocks a "Bonus Games" menu option, where Swanky's Dash can be replayed, along with [[Cranky's Dojo]] and [[Funky's Rentals (minigame)|Funky's Rentals]]. When playing Swanky's Dash from there, the player can choose which stage to play, and each challenge saves a high score if Dixie collects more stars than previously before.

| | * This minigame is rather similar to (and may have been inspired by) the Special Stages from ''Sonic the Hedgehog 2'' and ''Sonic Pocket Adventure''. |
