The Savannah Bananas unveiled their 2024 schedule Thursday night and there’s a chance the upcoming Banana Ball World Tour ends up at a big league park near you.
The tour spans nine months worth of locations and includes stops at six Major League cities and ballparks – Boston, Cleveland, Houston, Miami, Philadelphia and Washington D.C.
The Bananas claim the tour, which they dub ‘The Greatest Show In Sports,’ will reach more fans than ever in 2024. The team staged a ‘World Draft’ Thursday night and the season finale will be played on a cruise ship called “Bananaland at Sea.”
This season, the organization announced a third team – the Firefighters – will play against the Bananas and the rival Party Animals.

What Is Banana Ball?
After the 2022 season, the Savannah Bananas committed to playing their version of the game full-time – called Banana Ball. The basics of the game are the same. It is played on a standard baseball diamond with nine fielders and a nine-person lineup. But the Bananas promoted a litany of unique rules aimed at fueling fan engagement and generating interest on social media.
During their 2023 Mega Tour, the Bananas took their version of the game to 33 different cities. They sold out every game.
