'''Galaxy Colosseum''' (known as '''Galaxy Arena''' in the British English version) is an arena that appears in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', exclusively during the online [[List of Mario Kart Wii tournaments|Tournaments]] game mode. The arena is a round platform floating in outer space, modeled after similar platforms in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' and [[Rainbow Road]]; in addition, the size of the battle stage would be adjusted depending on the tournament objective.


For the 3rd tournament during March 2010, the player had to do the same as the 2nd June tournament of 2009 but with an exception: some Topmen could run away, and for this tournament, the player could use any Kart, Bike, or control scheme. Again, six was the required number to win.
Three tournaments took place on the arena, each with their own unique objectives. In the first tournament, players had to compete for the fastest time by knocking a total of four giant [[Spiky Topman|Spiky Topmen]] off of the arena's edge using only [[Triple Mushrooms]]. Players could knock them away with a Mushroom boost. In the second tournament, the outer rings of the arena broke off, and players had to send six Spiky Topmen off of the stage. In the third tournament, some Topmen could run away, and the outer rings no longer broke off.


According to the map of the stage, the size of this stage differs in each boss battle.
Due to the ending of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] service and subsequent end of Tournaments mode, it is no longer possible to play on this course through normal means.


Due to the ending of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] service, and with it the Competition Mode, it is impossible to play on this course without using cheat codes or porting the course into other battle tracks.
