Banana Ball is coming to two Valley cities next year.
The Savannah Bananas will bring their brand of baseball fun to Mesa and Glendale to kick off their 2025 schedule, the team announced Friday.
The Bananas will open their world tour with games Feb. 1-2 at Sloan Park in Mesa before trekking over to the West Valley for three straight games, Feb. 6-8, at Camelback Ranch-Glendale.
“We couldn’t be more excited to have these world class baseball entertainers bring Banana Ball," Camelback Ranch-Glendale President and GM Matt Slatus shared in a press release.
Beginning immediately and continuing until Friday, Nov. 1, fans can enter a lottery to purchase single-game tickets by visiting https://thesavannahbananas.com/tickets/.
Entering the ticket lottery list does not guarantee the opportunity to buy tickets. A random drawing will take place about two months prior to the first event for the chance to purchase tickets. Single-game tickets are $35 and will go on sale about two months before the event. A limited number of $100 Very Important Banana Tickets will be available as well.
Separately, fans interested in ballpark hospitality spaces in Glendale including suites or the Cutwater Spirits Deck and All You Can Eat Bullpen Patio can join the hospitality wait list by visiting https://www.mlb.com/camelback-ranch/tickets/savannah-bananas.
Those on the wait list will be contacted in order of registration when tickets become available.
The Savannah Bananas are a professional baseball team based in Savannah, Georgia, that take their show on the road with their Banana Ball World Tour.
The Bananas play their own version of baseball called Banana Ball, a fast-paced style of baseball with rules that include no bunting, a two-hour time limit, fans catching foul balls for outs, batters stealing first base, and a one-on-one tiebreaker showdown at the end of the game if tied.
Bananas players are known for such antics as playing a game in kilts, a dancing first-base coach, the first baseball player to wear stilts, players backflipping while catching fly balls, and more.
Game times regarding the Mesa and Glendale events will be announced at a later date. The opponent at both Valley stops will be The Party Animals.
