The Savannah Bananas, the team that has reimagined baseball into a high-octane, fan-first spectacle, have officially announced their ambitious 2026 World Tour Schedule—and it’s bigger, bolder, and more global than ever before. For the first time in team history, the Bananas will begin their journey outside the United States, opening in Iresa, Australia on February 7–8 before embarking on a coast-to-coast tour across America that spans iconic cities, Major League stadiums, and new fan bases eager to experience the joy of Banana Ball.
Since their founding in Savannah, Georgia, the Bananas have evolved from a quirky independent baseball team into a viral entertainment powerhouse. Known for rewriting the rules of baseball—literally—their unique format of “Banana Ball” includes two-hour time limits, dancing players, on-field fan interactions, and nonstop comedic antics that blur the lines between sports and theater. Now, with their 2026 tour stretching across multiple states and even international borders, the Bananas are solidifying their reputation as not just a team, but a global movement.
The schedule reads like a road map of excitement. Following their international kickoff in Australia, the Bananas will head to Glendale, Arizona and Fort Myers, Florida, giving fans in both spring training hubs a first taste of Banana Ball in the new year. March promises to be a whirlwind month with extended stays in Tampa Bay, Atlanta, and their home base of Savannah, Georgia, where their legendary Grayson Stadium will once again come alive with energy.
April and May see the Bananas taking their act to St. Louis, Washington, D.C., and Charlotte, cities with deep baseball traditions but none that have witnessed the Bananas’ unique brand of chaos on the diamond. By June, the tour ramps up even further with stops in Cincinnati, Philadelphia, and San Diego, showcasing the team’s coast-to-coast reach. San Diego, in particular, will host multiple dates in both June and September, a clear sign of the demand for Banana Ball on the West Coast.
For fans, the Bananas’ tour is more than just a game—it’s a cultural event. From choreographed walk-ups to players performing TikTok dances mid-inning, every night is a festival of baseball, music, and laughter. Founder and showman Jesse Cole, always dressed in his signature yellow tuxedo, has made it clear that the mission is to put fans first. “We don’t play for the scoreboard, we play for the people in the stands,” Cole has often said. “Every city we visit, we want fans to leave saying it was the most fun they’ve ever had at a ballpark.”
The 2026 tour schedule not only reflects the Bananas’ growth in popularity but also their determination to make Banana Ball a staple of modern sports entertainment. With sellouts expected in nearly every city, the Bananas are proving that their blend of comedy, athleticism, and unpredictability resonates far beyond their Georgia roots.
As the world of professional sports continues to evolve, the Savannah Bananas stand at the forefront of innovation, showing that the future of baseball may not be about tradition alone but about connection, creativity, and fun. Whether in Australia, Washington, D.C., or San Diego, fans are in for a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will redefine how they think about America’s pastime.
The Bananas have once again set the bar high, and as the countdown to February 2026 begins, one thing is certain: the world is ready to go bananas.
