The Mario Cup is a cup in the Mario Kart series, first appearing within the Mario Kart Arcade GP games. The cup features two courses in each of its appearances in Mario Kart Arcade GP, Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 and Mario Kart Arcade GP DX; the former two games share the same two tracks between them, while Mario Kart Arcade GP DX features two tracks that have a similar layout to the two aforementioned tracks, but with different names and appearances. However, the general setting of these tracks is always a tropical seaside.

In Mario Kart Tour, it first appeared in the New York Tour (making it the first cup of the game overall), and courses featured in this cup are treated as Mario's favored or favorite courses.

Version 1.1.0 of Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit adds the Mario Cup, with three new courses included within the update.
