Closing Ceremony

The closing ceremony started with the members of the JMRC, along with King Triton and Alvin the mascot, moving from the stands to the final podium with the Marble League Trophy. Each team and their coach then paraded in front of the podium, starting with the bottom ranked team to the top ranked team, before lining up in front of the podium. Then the top three teams, the Hazers, the Green Ducks, and the Raspberry Racers paraded onto the podium. The Raspberry Racers were given the Marble League Trophy as glitter fell from above. Then one of the members of the Raspberry Racers rolled down a track made of Hubelino setting off a chain reaction of dominoes and marbles on Gravitrax to reveal the logo made of dominoes before extinguishing the Marble League flame.

Trivia

• After another poor performance for the Oceanics, the Oceanics fans stormed into the stadium and surrounded the podium holding a banner saying "Noceanics".
• Cosmo from Team Galactic took part in this event, even though their teammate Starry had won the event in previous years. This was because their hard crash during Event 11, the Dirt Race had exhausted their energy.
• The Raspberry Racers of this season hold the record of the highest percentage of points in a Marble League, earning 54% of the total points (216 out of a possible 400).
