New Year's 2022 Tour

The New Year's 2022 Tour is the sixtieth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which begins on December 29, 2021, and will end on January 11, 2022. True to its name, the tour commemorates the new year of 2022. This tour will feature the debut of Bowser's Castle from Mario Kart 7 as a new classic course, as well as featuring the return and debut of various feline-themed items, including the introduction of Meowser and Cat Rosalina as new drivers. This tour is also the third one after the previous New Year's-themed tours to feature Kadomatsu scattered across courses.

This tour concludes the Holiday Celebration event that began on the 2021 Holiday Tour, which in addition to keeping the Holiday Challenges, the tour will introduce new unique challenges called the New Year's Challenges, Pauline as a completion reward on the Tour Multiplayer Challenges, Coins Aplenty and Tokens Aplenty events every day of the tour, and better rewards on the Token Shop, such as Dixie Kong, the Banana Master and the Tropical Glider.
