Mamma Mia! We've put together an 8 piece band to soundtrack everyone's favourite racing game - whilst you play on a huge screen! Our band will be playing all the best bits from Mario Kart through the years, including classic courses, newer tracks and the winning theme - they'll even speed up for the final lap! don't worry though, we won't be throwing shells or banana peels at you.


You can choose to compete against others where you'll be able to fully immerse yourself in the music whilst racing - or come to cheer on your pals as they compete for the all important 'Marioke Cup' a £100 bar tab and a bucket of gaming goodies!
We'll also have more screens for other opportunities to play on the night as well as a mini retro arcade whilst our DJ cuts together edits of famous gaming music in between races.


Registration for those who want to race starts from 6.30pm and will last until 7.30pm. Please note, your ticket only guarantees you entry to the event and does not guarantee you a space playing on the big screen tournament. Names will be drawn at random from those who enter the race registration - first race starting at 7.45!


We'll draw entries out of a hat at random for each round - please note that tickets guarantee you entry only.
We hope to see you there, lets-a-go!

FAQs

Will my ticket guarantee me a race on the big screen?

Your ticket will guarantee you entry to the venue only. To be in with a chance of racing on the big screen you'll need to turn up for race registration between 6.30pm-7.30pm and make yourself known to us if your name gets drawn. Your ticket will however guarantee you a view of all band performances, as well as access to our retro arcade machines.

Is this event for serious gamers?
Whilst we welcome a wide range of experienced Mario Kart players to Marioke, our events focus more on the atmosphere created by having an 8 piece band playing along to incredible music from our favourite game, with a smaller focus on the competitive side so please keep that in mind when joining us!
What version of Mario Kart will you be using?
We'll be using Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on the Switch
How many players and races will there be per round?
There'll be 4 players selected for each round, consisting of 2 races. The top 2 players overall will progress to our semi final race later on in the night.
How will you select players?
Players will be drawn at random out of a hat. To be eligible for the draw you'll need to arrive for race registration between 6.30pm and 7.30pm register next to the sound desk. We'll then draw 4 players at random just before every round - we'll move quickly through this so please stay aware, you'll have 10 seconds to make yourself known before we move on to the next pick!
What engine class will you be running? Any other specs I should know about?
150cc / normal items / all characters allowed / no smart steering / no auto acceleration
Will you have other games to play for people who don't get selected?
We'll have a retro arcade available for others to play who don't get selected to play in the races on the big screen. Games include Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Pacman, Donkey Kong, NBA Jam, Out Run and many more. These will be included in the price of your ticket, but please play nice!
