Bananas ball has finally confirmed Cities for 2026 Banana Ball world Tour after Over 150 cities from over 40 states have submitted their official interest in hosting Banana Ball games in 2026.

The wildly popular Savannah Bananas have once again taken the sports world by storm, this time with a massive response to their call for host cities for the 2026 Banana Ball World Tour. After a record-setting tour in 2024 and an even more ambitious schedule in 2025, the Bananas are preparing for their biggest year yet — and more than 150 cities from over 40 states across the U.S. have officially submitted bids to be a part of the 2026 tour.

Banana Ball, the high-energy, entertainment-focused version of baseball pioneered by the Savannah Bananas, has evolved into a cultural phenomenon. With sellout crowds, millions of followers across social media, and national media attention, cities across the country are eager to bring the Banana Ball experience to their communities.

Jesse Cole, the founder of the Savannah Bananas and mastermind behind Banana Ball, recently confirmed the overwhelming interest during a live announcement. “This response has been absolutely bananas,” Cole said, dressed in his iconic yellow tuxedo. “We’re seeing interest from small towns, big cities, coast to coast — everyone wants to bring Banana Ball home.”

In 2025, the Banana Ball World Tour spanned dozens of cities, playing in iconic venues like Fenway Park and loan Depot Park. However, the 2026 tour is expected to surpass even those achievements. With six full-time Banana Ball teams scheduled to play next year, the organization plans to expand its tour footprint significantly, creating more opportunities for cities to host.

The bidding process officially opened earlier this year, and the team has received proposals that range from historic baseball parks to minor league stadiums and even non-traditional venues. Cities have submitted detailed plans, showcasing not only their facilities but their passion for the game and the unique energy they believe Banana Ball will bring to their communities.

To determine the final host cities, the Savannah Bananas will hold a “Banana Ball Live Selection Show” on October 9, 2025. During the show, the organization will unveil which cities made the cut for the 2026 tour — and fans across the country will be watching closely. Cole has hinted that this announcement will feature surprises and possibly even new innovations for how Banana Ball will be played and presented in 2026.

While no specific cities have been officially confirmed as hosts yet, strong candidates are believed to include returning favorites such as Savannah (GA), Birmingham (AL), and Kansas City (MO), alongside potential newcomers from states like Colorado, Washington, and Minnesota.

Until the October announcement, speculation will continue to grow. One thing is clear: the demand for Banana Ball is stronger than ever, and 2026 is shaping up to be a milestone year in the sport’s expansion.

Fans and city officials alike are eagerly awaiting their chance to be part of this one-of-a-kind sports entertainment revolution — where baseball meets circus, showmanship, and pure joy.
