The '''World Duel Carnival''' was a Duel tournament held in [[HeartlandCity]]in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL]]'' anime.

The World Duel Carnival is really a plan designed by [[Mr. Heartland]] and [[Dr. Faker]] to find [[Number holder]]s so that [[Kite Tenjo]] can hunt them more efficiently. If the latter wins the tournament, they will gather most of the "Number" cards.<ref name="ep14">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|14|ref}}</ref> Unfortunately, Kite was defeated in his duel to Duel with Vetrix due to his "[[Number 69: Heraldry God - Coat of ArmsCrest]]"<ref name="ep64">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|64|ref}}</ref> , but Dr. Faker sill still allows the tournament to go as planned because the [[Sphere Field]] has the power to take "Numbers " from any holderregardless of the winner or loser.<ref name="ep65">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|65|ref}}</ref> The effect still remains the same due to Vetrix taking Kite's numbers from him.

If they discover someone cheated, they have authority to decide what kind of punishment the person will get, even if such said punishment would be a physical one. For example, Nistro forced a boy into a [[Duel]] and ordered him to disappear from [[Heartland City]]. Next, he made [[Flip (character)Turner|Flip]] eat all his "Heart Piece" candies and bound him with a rope. Nistro threatened he would confiscate his deck, while Flip would be disqualified and deprived from all future participation in the tournaments for the rest of his life. Additionally, he claimed he would make sure Flip never Dueled again by beating him out of Heartland City.<ref name="ep37"/>

The tournament begun with more than 10,000 participants. Only 24 Duelists were able to complete their Heart Pieces. Trey was a finalist but could not participate in the semi-finals due to him being in a coma after being defeated by Yuma and Astral, therefore only 23 Duelist Duelists advanced to the finals.

The first stage of the finals is called SkyScape section known as the Park Section in the Japanese version, which occurs all throughout [[Heartland]]. The Duelists use the [[Duel Coaster]] system which works similiar similarly to a [[Battle Royal]] Duel. The Duelists ride the Duel Coaster and Duel if another Duelist is on the same lane. Multiple Duelists can Duel against the same opponent and several parts of the lanes have [[Spell Card|Spell]]/[[Trap Card]]s set which activate when the Duelist crosses over them.<ref name="ep51">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|51|ref}}</ref>

Those who remain from the 23 finalists will pass to the next course of the Duel Coaster which is the underground sectioncalled Dragon's Den.
