Banana Ball World Tour Coming to Pelicans Ballpark in March 2027

The 2027 Banana Ball World Tour is heading to Myrtle Beach next spring for a three-game series at the newly renovated Pelicans Ballpark. Scheduled for March 18–20, 2027, the fast-paced exhibition series will feature the Loco Beach Coconuts taking on the Indianapolis Clowns.

This marks the first time the traveling baseball production will visit the stadium off 21st Avenue North, following a sold-out weekend series in Conway in 2026. Organizers selected Myrtle Beach as part of a competitive international selection process that saw roughly 300 communities bidding for tour stops.

For local residents looking to attend, securing seats will take advance preparation. Tickets are not being sold through the standard Pelicans box office. Instead, fans must join the official Banana Ball ticket lottery before the Oct. 31 deadline. Entering the lottery is free, but selection is random, with drawn winners allowed to purchase up to five tickets. Season-ticket members with a 22-game plan or larger and hospitality space bookers have access to separate presale windows that also close on Oct. 31.

The event offers high-profile, off-season usage for the publicly owned stadium, which recently underwent $20 million in facility upgrades and renovations. Pelicans Ballpark comfortably seats about 5,000 fans and can accommodate up to 6,500 using standing-room configurations, creating a maximum capacity of around 19,500 ticket holders across all three dates.

Banana Ball features unique, fan-friendly rules designed for fast play, including a strict two-hour game limit, no bunting, and counting any foul ball caught by a spectator as an official out. Attendees should note that the tour’s flagship team, the Savannah Bananas, is not scheduled for the Myrtle Beach stop.

Grand Strand residents planning to go are encouraged to sign up for the ticket lottery list promptly and coordinate entries with family or friends to maximize their chances of securing tickets before the Oct. 31 drawing deadline.
