Halloween Tour (2021)

The Halloween Tour was the fifty-fifth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on October 20, 2021 and ended on November 2, 2021. It was the eighth tour to have the same title as a previous tour, and the first instance of three tours sharing the same name. First announced at the start of the Autumn Tour, the tour introduced a new vampire-themed variant of Waluigi, as well as a new third variation of the London Loop course, named London Loop 3. This tour was also the second tour in a row and the third tour overall to include Jack-o'-lanterns scattered across courses. Rosalina (Halloween) and Mario (Halloween) (who both appeared as the week 1 spotlight drivers in the previous Halloween Tours) reappeared as spotlights for the second week.

This tour continued the Autumn Celebration that started in the previous tour, the Autumn Tour. Like that tour, it introduced new unique challenges, as well as an upgraded Token Shop, which included the Poison Apple Kart and Swooper. Like the 2021 Yoshi Tour, players were able to obtain Blue Yoshi as a reward for placing high in the tour's ranked cups.

This tour's Coin Rush course was 3DS Rosalina's Ice World, which was reused from the Rosalina Tour. The menu's background featured the Big Ben and some buildings from the London Loop courses as the landmark of this tour, which was reused from the London Tour and the Baby Rosalina Tour.

A seventh set of Expert Challenges was made available at the start of this tour, which makes this tour the first one since the Summer Festival Tour to not introduce an Expert Challenges card alongside a Team Rally, though a Team Rally would take place in the following tour.
