Banana Ball is returning to Birmingham’s Rickwood Field, the oldest professional baseball ballpark in the U.S.

Last night, the Savannah Bananas unveiled the 2026 inaugural Banana Ball Championship League schedule which included two games at Rickwood on Sept. 19-20 between the Loco Beach Coconuts and Indianapolis Clowns.

The last time Banana Ball was played in The Magic City was in 2023. The games were all sellouts.

In total, the barnstorming baseball league will visit 75 stadiums in 45 states.

In addition to the games at Rickwood Field, Montgomery is hosting two games March 21-22 at Riverwalk Stadium.
