Super Mushroom vs. Super Star

Super Mushroom (Super size) vs. Super Star (Invincibility) is an upcoming Splatfest event in Splatoon 2 that will celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Super Mario Bros. series. It was announced during the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Direct on 2020-09-03 and was announced in-game on 2020-12-28 at July 27, 2024.

Details
The Splatfest theme is about two power-ups from the Super Mario Bros. series: the Super Mushroom, which grants supersize, and the Super Star, which grants invincibility.

Merchandise
Splatfest T-shirts based on the artwork for the event were made available to purchase at the My Nintendo Store soon after the announcement. They are also available on Nintendo's online stores for South Korea and Hong Kong. Additionally, Splatfest keychains can be bought for 100 Platinum Points in North America, Europe, and Japan.

Collectible medals
To celebrate the Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary, special medals are available for participants in Japan, North America, and Europe. Medals will be awarded to the top 100 players of each team in Japan and Europe or the top 35 players of each team in North America. In Japan only, 100 random other players will receive the medals as well. On 2020-12-09, Nintendo revealed further information about the collectible medals within Japan, of which some translated details are listed below.

100 players in Japan have the chance to receive the medals by random chance.

Super Mushroom vs. Super Star features four Shifty Station layouts that rotate each rotation, with dynamic gimmicks: Cannon Fire Pearl, The Bunker Games, The Bouncey Twins and The Chronicles of Rolonium.

Trivia

 * This is the first Splatfest with an original theme since Chaos vs. Order - the event that was officially dubbed as the final one. This was referenced by Marina in the announcement dialogue.
 * Each Shifty Station picked has some sort of mechanic equivalent to Mario mechanics. Cannons represent the cannons on airship levels, Containment Chambers represent the one-time bonus rooms, Bounce Pads represent springs, and Rolonium represent shells Mario can kick.
