Template:MKTTour The Halloween Tour is the fifty-fifth tour of Mario Kart Tour, which began on October 20, 2021 and will end on November 2, 2021. It is 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 introduces a new vampire-themed variant of Waluigi, as well as a new third variant of the London Loop course, named London Loop 3.[1] This tour is also the second tour in a row and the third tour overall to include Jack-o'-lanterns scattered across courses.[2]

This tour continues the Autumn Celebration that started in the previous tour, the Autumn Tour. Like that tour, it introduces new unique challenges, as well as an upgraded Token Shop, which includes the Poison Apple Kart and Swooper. Like the 2021 Yoshi Tour, players are be able to obtain Blue Yoshi as a reward for placing high in the tour's ranked cups.[1]

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.

Today's Challenge

Players' karts, gliders and opponents are chosen or arranged randomly. On day 1 of this tour, players finish a race in 3DS Shy Guy Bazaar T in the Waluigi Cup using Dry Bones for a free pipe launch. Starting from day 2, players have to finish a race in the earliest uncleared course that is not in any of the ranked cups using the driver shown on the course's thumbnail every day to obtain the corresponding reward in the table below.
