'''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.


Also, in the 2nd June tournament of the 15th to the 25th of 2009, it was the same, except the outer rings of the arena broke off, and the player had to send 6 Spiky Topmen off the stage.
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.


For the 2nd tournament of Mario 2010, you have to do the same as the 2nd June tournament of 2009 but with an exception: Some Topmen can run away and for this tournament, you can use any Kart, Bike, or Control Scheme. Again, 6 is the required number to win!
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.


According to the map of the stage, the size of this stage differs from each boss battle.

Galaxy Colosseum (known as Galaxy Arena in the British English version) is an arena that appears in Mario Kart Wii, exclusively during the online 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.

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 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.
