The Savannah Bananas, known for their unique brand of baseball called Banana Ball, are coming back to Des Moines in 2024. They will play three games at Principal Park on September 6, 7, and 8. The event promises on-field antics, crowd participation, and fun props. Tickets are not yet on sale, but fans can sign up for presale alerts.

The Savannah Bananas are set to return to Des Moines in 2024, bringing their one-of-a-kind brand of baseball known as Banana Ball. This event has become a highly anticipated spectacle, with the Bananas quickly selling out two dates this year. To accommodate their growing fanbase, an additional date has been added to the schedule.
The games will take place at Principal Park on September 6, 7, and 8. The first two games will start at 7 p.m., while the final game on Sunday will begin at 1 p.m. The Bananas will once again face off against their rivals, The Party Animals, in a series of three straight games.
Banana Ball is more than just a game; it includes on-field antics like choreographed dances, crazy rules (such as if a fan catches a foul ball, it counts as an out), crowd participation skits, and fun props. The event is expected to be filled with energy and enthusiasm, much like the fans’ reception during their previous visit.
Tickets are not yet available for purchase, but fans can sign up to receive presale alerts. General Admission tickets will be sold through the Savannah Bananas at \$35 each, while premium seating opportunities will be available via the Iowa Cubs. For more information on premium seating, fans can contact Brent Conkel of the Iowa Cubs at [email protected] or by calling the front office at 515-243-6111.
