Guide to Attending a Savannah Bananas Baseball Game at Grayson Stadium

Banana Ball has taken the world by storm, and we are just as smitten as anyone else! What started with the Savannah Bananas has grown into a league featuring the Savannah Bananas, Party Animals, Firefighters, and several other teams. Each team is unique, but they're all equally entertaining!

Historic Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia, is home to the Savannah Bananas, and lucky for us in the Golden Isles, it's less than sixty miles away. If you're planning to attend a game, you're in for an experience unlike traditional baseball. From the pre-game festivities and dancing players to the unconventional rules and enthusiastic fans, there's plenty to see and do.

We've put together this guide to help you plan your visit, including how to get tickets, what to expect at the stadium, where to park, what food is available, and tips for attending with kids.

Game-day details, ticket availability, seating arrangements, food offerings, and parking procedures can change. Always check the official Savannah Know Before You Go guide for the latest information before heading to Grayson Stadium.

How to Get Savannah Bananas Tickets

Getting tickets to a Savannah Bananas game can be a challenge! Demand is high, and games often sell out. If you're hoping to attend a game at Historic Grayson Stadium, your best bet is to start with the official Banana Ball ticket process.

• Join the Banana Ball Ticket Interest List – Sign up to receive updates on ticket lotteries and future availability. The process and timing can change each season.
• Learn About the K Club – The K Club is the official fan membership program and offers benefits, including priority ticket access. Review the current membership details, as membership does not guarantee tickets to every game.
• Visit the Official Banana Ball Help Desk – Find answers to questions about ticket lotteries, purchasing, ticket transfers, and the official resale marketplace.

Ticket prices and available experiences vary by game, seating zone, and event. We recommend checking the official ticketing website for current pricing rather than relying on prices listed in older articles or social media posts.

Buying Savannah Bananas Tickets from Other Fans

If you weren't selected in the ticket lottery or tickets are sold out, you may still find tickets through the official resale marketplace. The Fans First Ticket Marketplace is the safest place to start when looking for tickets from other fans.

Be especially careful when purchasing tickets through Facebook groups, social media posts, or unfamiliar third-party websites. Ticket scams are common, and screenshots of tickets or payment requests from strangers don't prove tickets are legitimate.

A few things to keep in mind when looking for resale tickets:

• Whenever possible, purchase through the official Fans First Marketplace rather than sending money directly to an individual.
• Be cautious of sellers who contact you unexpectedly or pressure you to pay quickly.
• Don't rely on screenshots of tickets or QR codes as proof of ownership.
• Use the official ticket account and transfer process to receive tickets. Make sure the tickets appear in your own account before considering the transaction complete.
• Review the official ticketing help center if you have questions about transfers or resale purchases.

We know how tempting it can be to jump on an opportunity to see the Bananas, but it's better to miss out on a ticket than risk losing your money to a scam.

Getting to Grayson Stadium and Parking

Historic Grayson Stadium is located at 1401 East Victory Drive in Savannah, Georgia. Parking is one of the most important things to plan before attending a game, as parking directly at the stadium is extremely limited.

For the best experience, the team recommends carpooling or using a rideshare service. Many games also offer free off-site parking with shuttle service.

• Free off-site parking at Savannah Arts Academy: This lot uses the yellow shuttle.
• Free off-site parking at Myers Middle School: This lot uses the blue shuttle.
• Rideshare: The official game-day guide identifies the designated drop-off and pickup area near the plaza entrance.

Shuttle availability and operating times can vary by event. Check the official Grayson Stadium game-day guide before leaving home for the current parking map, shuttle details, and instructions.

Our advice? Don't wait until you arrive at the stadium to figure out where to park. Plan ahead, allow extra time for transportation, and remember your shuttle color and parking location if you're using an off-site lot.

Pre-Game Festivities at Grayson Stadium

One of the best parts of attending a Savannah Bananas game is that the entertainment starts well before the first pitch! The pre-game festivities are a big part of the experience, so we recommend arriving early enough to enjoy them.

Depending on the game, you may find players signing autographs and taking pictures with fans, music, dancing, and other surprises around the stadium plaza. You might even catch a marching band or a flash mob dance party. The shenanigans are endless!

Game-day schedules vary, so check your ticket information and the official Know Before You Go guide for the current plaza opening time, gate opening time, and show start time.

If you're attending with little ones, look for family-friendly activities and games around the stadium. Previous games have featured bounce houses, batting cages, and other kid-friendly activities. Availability, locations, and pricing may vary by event.

We recommend giving yourself plenty of time to explore before the show begins. You'll have a much better experience if you're not rushing through the entrance or trying to find your seats at the last minute!

Seating at Grayson Stadium

One important thing to understand before attending a Savannah Bananas game is that seating is organized by ticket zone. Your ticket will show the zone you purchased, and seating arrangements vary by area.

Some areas have traditional seating, while others are designated standing-room-only. For example, the Left Field Landing drink rails and Picnic Area are listed as standing-room-only areas in the current stadium guide.

Review the official seating map and entrance information before arriving. Your ticket zone determines which entrance you should use, so check the instructions rather than assuming all entrances lead to every seating area.

If you're attending with children, consider the seating type included with your tickets before purchasing. If someone in your group needs accessible seating or other accommodations, contact the ticket team in advance to discuss arrangements.

During a Savannah Bananas Baseball Game

This is not the same baseball game we all came to know and love by watching The Sandlot on repeat. Self-described as the fastest and most entertaining baseball game, Banana Ball combines incredible athletes, showmanship, music, and plenty of surprises!

Expect players to break out into choreographed dances, epic scoring celebrations, and other antics throughout the game. You might also see a dancing umpire, the Banana Nanas (a senior citizen dance team), and the Man-Nanas (the Dad-bod Cheerleading Squad).

You'll also see plenty of participation from the stands and opportunities for fans to get involved, including the famous honoring of the Banana Baby.

Owner and creator Jesse Cole is known for his signature yellow tuxedo and his role as the show's ringmaster. He and the entire team work to keep fans entertained from the first pitch to the final out.

And, of course, Banana Ball has its own set of rules! If you're new to the game, check out the official Banana Ball rules before your visit. The unusual rules are part of what makes the game so much fun.

Want to be part of the show? The team offers opportunities for fan participation and special game-day experiences. Check the official Banana Ball Help Desk and event information for current opportunities.

Food and Beverages at Grayson Stadium

If you managed to get tickets to a Savannah Bananas home game, come hungry! The Bananas have become known for their all-inclusive food experience, which has historically included ballpark favorites such as hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, chips, popcorn, cookies, water, and Coca-Cola beverages.

Food and beverage offerings can vary by game and ticket package, so review the current event details before you go. The official Grayson Stadium guide is the best place to confirm what's included with your admission and what is available for purchase.

In addition to the included food options at qualifying games, you may find other snacks, sweets, and beverages at stadium concessions. If you're feeling bananas, keep an eye out for some of the more over-the-top ballpark creations, including the famous Garbage Can Nachos.

Bananaland has also featured signature items such as Savannah Banana Beer, Banana Split Cream Soda, and the specialty cocktail, the Slippery Banana. Availability can vary by event.

For the latest food and beverage information, check the Banana Ball Game Day Help Center before your visit.

Attending a Savannah Bananas Game with Kids

A Savannah Bananas game can be a memorable experience for the whole family. The music, dancing, funny antics, and constant interaction make it entertaining even for kids who aren't especially interested in traditional baseball.

A few tips for attending with children:

• Arrive early. Give yourself time to enjoy the pre-game activities, find your seats, and get settled before the show starts.
• Check the seating zone. Some areas are standing-room-only, so make sure your ticket type fits your family.
• Prepare for a loud, energetic atmosphere. The music, crowd participation, and entertainment are part of the fun, but families with noise-sensitive children may want to plan ahead.
• Download your tickets ahead of time. Make sure everyone knows who has the tickets and how you'll enter the stadium.
• Plan your transportation. Parking and shuttles can take extra time, so build that into your evening.

According to the official ticket information, children ages three and under do not need a ticket if they sit on an adult's lap. If you'd like a separate seat for your child, you'll need to purchase a ticket. Always confirm the current child ticket policy before purchasing.
