Choosing Which Banana Ball World Tour Game to Attend
The Banana Ball World Tour takes place between February – October, with over 100 games set to be played in 2025. As a true “tour”, events will be played across more than 15 states, with the likes of New York, Chicago, Seattle, and San Diego among the list of major cities receiving a visit. Consequently, one good way to choose a Savannah Bananas game to attend is by looking at location.
As the Bananas will cover so much of the US during their 2025 tour, finding a game nearby might not be too difficult, but a Bananas game can also be a great excuse to travel. Iconic stadiums like Wrigley Field in Chicago can be a deciding factor when choosing a game, as can the opportunity to combine the event with a vacation in popular tourist destinations like Washington DC or Miami. Alternatively, why not visit the home of Banana Ball itself – Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia? As well as their games on the road, the Bananas will host more than 25 matchups at their home ballpark, meaning you can enjoy watching Banana Ball back where it all began.
If location can’t help you narrow down your options then a closer look at the schedule, and a check on which teams are playing, will likely do the job. Though the Savannah Bananas are the stars of the Banana Ball World Tour, the tour also features 3 additional teams: the Party Animals, the Firefighters, and the Texas Tailgaters. These teams mostly act as opponents for the Bananas, but will also play each other in a number of games during the 2025 season. If seeing the Bananas in action is not a dealbreaker, choosing a game involving 2 of these additional franchises may make it easier, and potentially cheaper, to secure tickets. If this applies to you, just look out for games where either the Party Animals, Firefighters, or Texas Tailgaters are listed as the headliner.

When Do Banana Ball World Tour Tickets Go On Sale?
Due to enormous demand, all Banana Ball tickets are distributed as part of an Official Ticket Lottery, which usually opens during the summer and closes in early November. Registered fans selected in the lottery are then offered the opportunity to purchase tickets around 2 months before their game is scheduled to begin.
In recent seasons, most, if not all, tickets for Banana Ball games have sold out during the lottery stage, but if you aren’t one of the lucky selected few, you can still sign up to the Official Ticket Interest List for all the latest information, or check out the resale market, which can be highly active for Banana Ball games.
Ultimately, for the best chance of securing Banana Ball tickets, save any desired events to your interests on Koobit to receive on-sale updates and notifications.
Where to Buy Banana Ball World Tour Tickets
Primary Sellers
All primary tickets for Banana Ball games are sold directly through the Savannah Bananas and the Official Banana Ball Ticket Lottery. No membership is required to purchase tickets (although K Club members receive priority), but due to enormous demand for all Banana Ball games, it is important to enter the ticket lottery for a chance to secure primary seats. The lottery is generally open between late summer – early November (outside of these times, register on the Official Ticket Interest List for ticket information). Banana Ball games are almost always full sellouts, so tickets are only available online, not at the venue.
Resellers
Though the Savannah Bananas strongly discourage fans from purchasing tickets from resellers, there is a highly active resale market online for all Banana Ball games. Prices for resellers are often much higher than tickets from the primary seller, but if you were unable to secure tickets in the lottery then the resale market is likely your best option for obtaining a seat.
Common resellers for Banana Ball games include:
Types of Banana Ball World Tour Tickets Available
Banana Ball is played across a variety of Major League and Minor League ballparks in the US, but ticket options are slightly different to regular baseball games. Though it’s possible that some venues may have reserved seats and stadium-specific premium options, most Banana Ball games have two unique ticket types – Open Seating and VIB Experiences:
Open Seating
Open Seating is the standard ticket option at most Banana Ball games. These tickets provide fans with unreserved seating, so you can pick the seats that suit you best. For Savannah Bananas games at Grayson Stadium, Open Seating also includes unlimited food and soft drinks – one of the best deals in baseball!
Pros: Excellent value
Cons: Need to arrive early to secure the best seats
Prices: From $35
VIB Experience
VIB (Very Important Banana) tickets are the Savannah Bananas’ official premium ticket option. A one-of-a-kind experience, VIB tickets include a variety of perks, such as early entry, behind the scenes rehearsal access, and meet-and-greet opportunities with your favorite Banana Ball stars.
Pros: A truly unique premium experience
Cons: More costly than standard tickets
Prices: From $100
Banana Ball World Tour Ticket Prices
The Savannah Bananas continuously make efforts to keep Banana Ball tickets affordable, and Open Seating starts at just $35. This very reasonable price gets even better if you attend a Bananas home game at Grayson Stadium, where all tickets are inclusive of standard food items and soft drinks! The Savannah Bananas’ premium option, the VIB (Very Important Banana) Experience, starts at $100, and includes a host of perks, such as meet-and-greets and early entry. And remember, children aged 3 and under can attend Bananas games for free.
Reseller tickets for Banana Ball games can cost significantly more than primary tickets, so it’s best to join the ticket lottery for the lowest prices. If you are going to purchase tickets on the resale market, seats are often at their cheapest the day before, or on the day of, the event. However, this is, of course, a risky strategy as tickets can be sold at any time, so if you have your heart set on attending a game, it’s advisable to buy well in advance.
Finding Cheap Tickets
The Banana Ball World Tour is largely an outlier in the baseball world as resale tickets are often very expensive, while primary seller tickets are consistently good value. In short, the only real way to ensure you can pick up cheap Banana Ball tickets is by signing up for the Official Ticket Lottery in late summer/fall. This will give you a shot at tickets starting as low as $35 – by far the best price available for Bananas games.
If you miss out on primary seller tickets and end up searching the resale market, Koobit compares ticket prices to help you get the best deal.
Ticket Delivery
Savannah Bananas tickets are delivered as e-tickets, accessible online. For many games, tickets are only accessible 24 hours before first pitch. You will receive an email from the Bananas when your tickets – generally presented as a scannable QR code – become available.
Planning Parking & Travel for a Banana Ball World Tour Game
Parking options for Banana Ball games vary depending on whether you are seeing the Savannah Bananas play at home, or catching a game on the road.
For Bananas home games, which take place at Grayson Stadium in Savannah, a number of free parking lots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Lots usually open around 90 minutes before gates open for the game. As illustrated by the map below, parking can be found just outside Grayson Stadium (A), on Daffin Park Drive – street parking (B), in the grass lot off Cedar Street (C), and at Fresenius Kidney Care on Victory Drive (D).
For road games, parking will vary depending on the venue. Most venues offer official parking, priced between $20–$50, within a short walk of the ballpark. Official parking generally needs to be purchased online, in advance, from the venue website, or the website of the team that calls the ballpark home. Alternatively, or if official parking is sold out, additional spaces can be found on sites like SpotHero.
While driving might be a common way to travel for a Savannah Bananas game, it’s also worth considering public transport. Especially in larger cities, like New York or Chicago, traffic congestion can make driving a slow and stressful experience. These cities often have efficient subway, bus, or tram systems, which make for a useful travel alternative that is often faster, cheaper, and easier than driving. For full information, search for public transport in the local area of the game you are attending, or use Google Maps to research potential routes. If you do choose to use public transport, remember to leave extra time for your journey in case of delays, and double check your route before leaving, including information on any service closures.
For further assistance with your journey to the ballpark, visit your chosen game's Travel & Parking section on Koobit.
Booking Accommodation When Attending a Banana Ball World Tour Game
Accommodation is readily available near most venues on the Banana Ball World Tour, but this can vary depending on the location. For instance, for Bananas home games at Grayson Stadium, most of the nearest hotels are around 2 miles (45 minute walk) from the venue, and these are likely to become fully booked fairly quickly when the Bananas are in town. Conversely, major cities like Seattle or Boston should have plenty of accommodation options within a short walk of the venue, but they may be pricey. For cheaper options, look at areas outside the main city centre and consider taking public transport to the ballpark on gameday. Wherever you’re looking to stay, you’ll find plenty of options on sites like Booking.com, which also provides free cancellation for some hotels. By booking early and shopping around, you should be able to find accommodation that suits your budget.
