List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments

This is a complete list of Mario Kart Wii tournaments (competitions in European languages) that were held on the Mario Kart Channel. Two tournaments were held each month, starting in May of 2008. The first tournament of each month lasted from the 1st to the 10th of that month, and the second lasted from the 15th until the 25th. Tournaments were sent through the internet to the Wii console via WiiConnect24. There are a total of 49 unique tournaments. From the second tournament of August 2010 onward, all tournaments were repeats of previous ones. Even though WiiConnect24 services were discontinued in June 27, 2013, the tournaments were still available. The tournaments could also not be played on a Wii U at all due to the system not being compatible with WiiConnect24.

With the discontinuation of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection on May 20, 2014, the tournament service has concluded as of the end of the May 2014 tournament.
