The Glitz Pit is a fighting arena in Glitzville, from the GameCube game Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. The Glitz Pit is run by Grubba, a blue Clubba who, as it is revealed later, uses the Crystal Star to power himself up. Prince Mush was a former champion of the Glitz Pit, but Grubba made him "disappear". Rawk Hawk then became the champion.

The Glitz Pit uses a ranking system. The locker rooms are divided up by Minor League, Major League, and Champion. Fighters start in the Minor League. If they beat the highest rank in the Minor league, said fighter will advance to the Major League. The Minor League is filled with more with common, weaker enemies.
