Come visit Mario and Friends and embark on a summer quest near you this summer!

This summer, Nintendo of Canada is bringing smiles with the help of some friendly Mushroom Kingdom characters. Families are invited to explore the many adventures and fun of Nintendo and the Nintendo Switch system at various stops across the nation.

Mario & Friends: The Summer Quest has something for kids of all ages to enjoy. Young fans will have the opportunity to explore the magical worlds and characters, with an added twist. Upon arrival at the event, you will be tasked with the challenge of returning something that Bowser has stolen…so keep your eyes peeled for clues!

Parents can join their kids in plenty of themed fun and activities for the whole family, including riddle solving and jumbo puzzles featuring Mario and friends.

There will be a variety of games to try at each event. You can summon your courage and play Luigi’s Mansion™ 2 HD, save the day as Peach in Princess Peach™: Showtime!, share the wonder with family and friends in Super Mario Bros.™ Wonder, or rev your engine and join Mario and friends in Mario Kart™ 8 Deluxe.

Bring your cheesiest smiles and pose for a photo with some fan-favourite characters!

Guests will receive a free Quest Guide upon arrival which they’ll use as they embark on a quest. Attendees with a Nintendo Account can also check in with My Nintendo at the event to receive a Super Mario themed gift item (while supplies last) and 100 My Nintendo Platinum Points* to redeem for rewards on the My Nintendo site.
