Kirby Relay Races
The Kirby Series Title Speedrun Relay (shortened to "Kirby Relay") is a yearly event where the community competes in a relay race through several Kirby games. These races are typically split between Japan and Western teams (though "Western" teams typically have representatives from all over the world).
Kirby Series Relay 2023
Kirby Relay 2023 is the 5th annual relay race held for the Kirby series.
Relay 2023 took place on April 22, 2023, and was the first relay to:
- introduce a third Japan team, rather than the usual two.
- include two separate categories for a single game, that being Kirby and the Forgotten Land.
- include an individual level of a game, that being Kirby Super Star Ultra's Great Cave Offensive.
- be named by year, rather than by number like the previous relay races.

Kirby's Dream Collection All Classic Titles
Each year, the Kirby community holds a race which consists of playing through all the Classic Titles of Kirby's Dream Collection. Most runners will play the games in chronological order, but there is no restriction that requires doing so. Each game follows its own typical ruleset for speedruns. For Kirby's Adventure, any category can be played as long as the game is beaten.
2023
TBD.
2022
All participants were unable to race on the same day, so the race was split across two dates.

Kirby Speed Showcase Monthlies
Kirby Speed Showcase Monthlies were monthly marathons showing off 3-4 games which were planned to be held at the first Saturday of every month. There were only two marathons held: The June Showcase on June 4th, 2016, and the August Showcase on August 21, 2016 (which was not the first Saturday of that month). There were plans for a September Showcase, but nothing ever materialized.
