A '''Cannon''' is an object in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'']] series which can launch [[Kirby]] or another character as a projectile. Using a cannon will allow Kirby to travel across an area, travel to a new area (much like a [[Door]] or [[Warp Star]]), and/or bust through barricades.

Using a cannon will allow Kirby to travel across an area, travel to a new area (much like a [[Door]] or [[Warp Star]]), and/or bust through barricades. Cannons have been a common sight in ''Kirby'' series' stage architecture since ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', with more types being gradually added over time.

There are several different kinds of cannons throughout the series, with each one having its own set of rules and restrictions. The following is a list of every type of recurring cannon (note that these names are conjectural):

First appearing in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', these large black cannons are hooked up to a long [[fuse]], which can span an entire area and must be lit at the end using a fire-based attack from Kirby or another playable character. From there, Kirby must make his way to the cannon before the fuse burns out and enter it in time to be fired by it, usually resulting in gaining access to a new area. If Kirby does not make it in time, the fuse will regenerate, and he can (usually) try again.
