The Savannah Bananas sold out Sutter Health Park during their 2023 Banana Ball World Tour. So in 2024, they’re coming back and they’re staying longer than one night.

The Bananas announced their 2024 Banana Ball World Tour will stop in Sacramento for a three-game series from May 9-11, 2024.

And when the Bananas come to town, there’s no shortage of surprises. This past summer, the boys in yellow were joined by Hunter Pence, a two-time World Series champion with the San Francisco Giant, and former World Series champion Josh Reddick.

Other former Major League stars who joined the Bananas during their summer tour included Jake Peavy, Johnny Damon, and Barry Zito.

“I think [last] year showed people that we aren’t just here to entertain, but that we can actually play at a very high level too,” Savannah Bananas’ infielder Jackson Olson said in a press release. “[The year] 2023 was life-changing for all of us, but 2024 is about to be the biggest challenge yet and we’re all ready for it.”

Like last summer, the Savannah Bananas will again face off against their rival, the Party Animals, in 2024. Click here for the complete 2024 tour schedule and ticket information.
