Which Mario Kart Tour course is set in New York City?

The Mario Kart Tour course set in New York City is New York Minute.

New York Minute is one of Mario Kart Tour’s original city courses, built around recognizable Manhattan-inspired locations. Its route begins near Times Square, then passes through streets resembling Broadway before reaching Central Park. Other visual landmarks include the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, and St. Patrick’s Cathedral, giving the course its unmistakable New York setting.

The course debuted with the first New York Tour in September 2019, which also introduced Pauline, a character closely associated with the city through her role in Super Mario Odyssey. Unlike a conventional circuit that always follows one fixed layout, Mario Kart Tour later added alternate versions: New York Minute 2, 3, and 4. These variants rearrange the route and add different turns, jumps, and landmark combinations.

The name can cause confusion because Mario Kart Tour also includes city courses such as London Loop, Sydney Sprint, and Vancouver Velocity. Those names identify different real-world destinations. New York Minute is the New York course, while its numbered variants remain part of the same New York-themed family. The course was later adapted for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe’s Booster Course Pass.
