Trivia
- Series Clash! DK Vs. Kirby is tied with Triforce Tryouts for the least amount of available fighters for an Event Tourney, with 6.
- While Donkey Kong and Kirby share the same amount of fighters, 75m and The Great Cave Offensive are the only stages from these universes in Ultimate to not appear in this Tourney.
- The Planet Popstar graphic on this event's splash image has a dot pattern and drop-shadow effect that are prominent throughout Kirby Star Allies.
- Unlike the other events that focus on specific series, the event rewards spirits outside of the focused series.
