Enjoy an interactive Nintendo experience full of character meet and greets, photo-ops, activities and games at stops across the U.S. all summer long
This summer, Nintendo is bringing smiles to cities across the nation alongside Mario, Princess Peach, Donkey Kong, Pikachu and more with the Play Nintendo Tour. From June 13 to Sept. 2, Nintendo invites kids and their parents to explore the endless adventure and fun of Nintendo and the Nintendo Switch system at various stops across the nation. The national tour is free to attend and brings with it exciting interactive experiences featuring photo-ops with Nintendo characters, giveaways (while supplies last), and playable demos of the latest Nintendo Switch games.
The Play Nintendo Tour has something for everyone – whether that’s discovering a new favorite character, enjoying a family activity, or just showing off your skills in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game! Much like the Play Nintendo website, the Play Nintendo Tour is also a destination for families that’s packed full of fun activities, friendly Nintendo characters, puzzles, quizzes, videos, and more.
What else can young fans expect from this interactive experience? Opportunities to explore the fun and magic of Nintendo worlds and characters – here are just a few samples of what’s in store:
- Are you afraid of ghosts? Summon your courage like Luigi for a frightfully fitting photo-op from the Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD game, launching on June 27.
- Walk the red carpet, snap a pic at the showstopping photo-op and take the stage as Peach to save the Sparkle Theater with a demo of the Princess Peach: Showtime! game. During her theatrical adventure, she’ll transform into a number of exciting personas, from Swordfighter Peach to Patissiere Peach – play around and discover your favorite!
- Share the wonder with friends and family in the Super Mario Bros. Wonder game demo! Experience classic Mario gameplay transformed by the magic of Wonder Flowers. Play as Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toads, Toadette, Yoshi and Nabbit and discover your new favorite power-ups!
- Rev up your engines with Mario and friends for all of the exciting speedways to be found in both the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass DLC.

Parents join their kids in plenty of themed fun and activities for the whole family at the event, including personality quizzes, jumbo puzzles featuring Mario and friends, memory matching games and an opportunity to try your hand at the claw machine to snag fun items, just to name a few. The tour even has a dedicated area where attendees can learn more details about the Nintendo Switch system and find some recommended games based on their family’s favorite characters.
