Disney Just Revealed When This Viral Sports Sensation Returns to the Parks
The Savannah Bananas are returning to Disneyland Resort on March 26, 2026, with an expanded experience covering both theme parks. The Indianapolis Clowns will join the one-day Disney event.
Expanded Disney Park Presence
Unlike the 2025 debut, limited to Disney California Adventure, the 2026 Savannah Bananas experience extends to both Disneyland and California Adventure. Select players from the Savannah Bananas and Indianapolis Clowns will appear at both parks throughout the day.
This expansion allows guests to encounter the teams regardless of which park they visit, creating resort-wide presence instead of confining activities to a single location.
Disneyland Activities
Disneyland will host The Savannah Bananas Cavalcade along the parade route. Guests can position themselves anywhere along the route to watch the team travel through the park.
A special performance will take place in front of Sleeping Beauty Castle, utilizing one of Disney’s most iconic locations for the centerpiece entertainment moment. The castle performance showcases the choreographed entertainment and energy defining Savannah Bananas appearances.
Disney California Adventure Entertainment
At Disney California Adventure, the Savannah Bananas and Indianapolis Clowns will perform at the World of Color viewing area in Paradise Gardens Park. The high-energy show promises surprises and audience engagement aligned with Banana Ball’s reputation for unexpected moments.
The World of Color viewing area provides large gathering space capable of accommodating substantial crowds while offering infrastructure designed for entertainment presentations.
Banana-Themed Food
Disneyland Resort will offer banana-flavored food and beverages throughout both parks, with many items available year-round beyond the special event.
Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree at Disneyland serves banana pudding with bananas, whipped cream, crushed wafer cookies, dulce de leche, and toffee via mobile order.
Wine Country Trattoria at California Adventure offers banana brûlée tart featuring vanilla tart with brûléed bananas and banana-coconut whipped cream, plus frozen banana mudslide cocktail with vanilla vodka, Kahlua, Baileys, banana liqueur, and half and half. Reservations are highly recommended.
Cappuccino Cart in San Fransokyo Square provides banana cold foam as a drink add-on for additional cost. Outdoor vending carts sell frozen chocolate-dipped bananas, while fruit carts offer whole bananas at various locations.
Sweepstakes Prize Package
A sweepstakes offers a three-night Disneyland Resort vacation to experience Savannah Bananas Day on March 26, 2026. The package includes up to four tickets to the Savannah Bananas versus Indianapolis Clowns game at Angel Stadium on March 27.
The sweepstakes runs through 12 PM Eastern Time on February 27, 2026, providing approximately three weeks for entries.
About Banana Ball
The Savannah Bananas operate within the Banana Ball Championship League, traveling nationally to play unique baseball featuring choreographed dancing, scoring celebrations, and entertainment-focused antics. Other league teams include Party Animals, Firefighters, Texas Tailgaters, Loco Beach Coconuts, and Indianapolis Clowns.
Banana Ball implements unconventional rules accelerating game pace. Fans catching foul balls count as outs. Players can attempt stealing first base, creating situations impossible in traditional baseball.
Walt Disney World Debut
Banana Ball comes to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World for the first time on May 29-30, 2026. The Loco Beach Coconuts and Party Animals will compete inside The Stadium, bringing the experience to Florida guests.
Second Year Significance
The expanded 2026 experience demonstrates successful 2025 debut performance. Disney rarely repeats one-day events without evidence of meaningful guest interest and positive reception.
Extending presence to both parks rather than single-park limitation indicates increased investment in the partnership based on previous year results.
For guests planning March 26 Disneyland Resort visits, the Savannah Bananas provide unique entertainment unavailable during standard park days while banana-themed food creates social media opportunities and novelty appealing to visitors seeking shareable content.
