Rome Avanti

Rome Avanti is a race course in Mario Kart Tour. It is based on the city of Rome,, and as such takes racers round many landmarks and sites from that city, even taking them through the Colosseum. The course made its debut in the Night Tour, and is the second real world city course to not debut in a tour named after the city it's debuting, after Athens Dash. It is also the first real world city course to debut alongside a classic course since Paris Promenade, over three years earlier. The course is the sixth European city course and is the first of them to be set at nighttime. The course's name comes from an Italian word that roughly translates to "onwards", and it is the first course in the Mario Kart series to use a non-English word in its English name. The starting line for this course resembles the front side of the Pantheon.

It has two routes, Rome Avanti and Rome Avanti 2, both of which debuted together. The two routes feature many unused roads indicating the course will have a third route in the future.

Excluding courses announced simultaneously, this course and Squeaky Clean Sprint mark the shortest period of time between the announcement of two new courses for the Mario Kart series, with only a 16-hour gap; beating the previous courses with this distinction, Piranha Plant Cove and Yoshi's Island, by five days.
