In an unprecedented surge of enthusiasm, more than **150 cities across over 40 U.S. states** — and several international destinations — have officially submitted bids to host **Banana Ball** games in 2026. The announcement, confirmed earlier today by **The Savannah Bananas** organization, marks a major milestone in the sport’s meteoric rise from a quirky baseball experiment to a global entertainment phenomenon.
The organization revealed that cities from every region of the country — from **Los Angeles to Miami, Chicago to Dallas, and even Honolulu to Anchorage** — have expressed formal interest in bringing the electric, fan-first Banana Ball experience to their communities. Adding to the excitement, multiple international cities in **Canada, Mexico, Japan, and the United Kingdom** have also reached out to join what has quickly become one of the most in-demand sports events in the world.
The **two yet-to-be-named Banana Ball teams**, announced earlier this year, have reportedly received strong proposals from both U.S. and international venues, signaling the next phase of the league’s ambitious global expansion.

Banana Ball, known for its fast-paced rules, music-driven atmosphere, and circus-like fan engagement, has transformed from a regional novelty into a national movement.
With negotiations now underway, final host cities are expected to be announced early next year — setting the stage for the **most expansive and entertaining Banana Ball tour in history**.
A new era of baseball has begun — and the world is ready to join the party.
