In one of the most anticipated announcements in the world of sports and entertainment, the Savannah Bananas have unveiled their 2026 Banana Ball World Tour schedule, and it is nothing short of historic. The barnstorming baseball sensation, known for blending athleticism with unmatched showmanship, is taking its revolutionary brand of Banana Ball to unprecedented heights. The Bananas will visit 45 cities across 28 states, performing in 20 Major League Baseball stadiums and four football venues, a record-setting expansion that cements their evolution from a quirky independent team into a nationwide entertainment phenomenon.
The Bananas’ 2026 tour marks the biggest leap in scope since the team’s inception, showcasing just how far they have come from their humble beginnings in Savannah, Georgia. Founded in 2016, the Bananas redefined baseball with “Banana Ball,” a fast-paced, fan-first version of the game that prioritizes excitement, interaction, and nonstop fun. Over the past decade, their viral videos, choreographed dances, and daring in-game antics have drawn millions of fans online and in stadiums. Now, with their 2026 tour, the Bananas are set to reach more fans than ever before.
Jesse Cole, the team’s owner and visionary leader, described the expansion as a natural next step in the Bananas’ mission. “This is more than baseball,” Cole said. “This is about bringing joy, laughter, and unforgettable experiences to as many people as possible. The 2026 Banana Ball World Tour is our boldest step yet in transforming the way America experiences the game.”
The inclusion of 20 Major League Baseball stadiums highlights the team’s growing acceptance and partnership with professional baseball. What once began as a novelty act has now become a legitimate entertainment movement that MLB organizations themselves are embracing. Playing in iconic venues such as Yankee Stadium, Dodger Stadium, and Wrigley Field, the Bananas are not only expanding their audience but also challenging the traditional boundaries of what baseball can be. The addition of four football venues—capable of hosting even larger crowds—demonstrates the demand for Banana Ball’s unique spectacle.
For fans, the 2026 tour promises an unmatched combination of athletic talent and pure entertainment. Players will continue performing choreographed entrances, mid-inning dance breaks, and trick plays that bend the rules of baseball while keeping the audience engaged from the first pitch to the last out. With rules designed to keep the game under two hours and fans encouraged to be part of the show, every stop on the tour becomes more than a game—it becomes a celebration.
Industry analysts see this expansion as a watershed moment for sports entertainment. “The Bananas aren’t just a team anymore—they’re a movement,” said one sports business expert. “They’ve cracked the code on how to make baseball appealing to a younger, more diverse audience while still respecting the fundamentals of the game.”
Tickets for the 2026 Banana Ball World Tour are expected to sell out rapidly, following the pattern of previous years when demand far exceeded supply. With this bold new chapter, the Savannah Bananas are proving that their mission to reimagine America’s pastime is no longer confined to Savannah—it’s sweeping the nation.
At 45 cities strong, the Bananas’ 2026 tour is not just a schedule—it’s a statement. The team is here not only to play baseball but to change it forever.
