Get tickets to Savannah Bananas at Petco Park 2027

Getting Savannah Bananas tickets isn’t like buying a Padres ticket. There’s no on-sale date and no refresh-and-pray queue — it’s a lottery, and the window to get in is closing. The Bananas return to Petco Park on Saturday, April 3 and Sunday, April 4, 2027, and both of their previous San Diego visits sold out. Here’s how to give yourself the best shot.

Join the Ticket Lottery List

How the Ticket Lottery Works

1. Join the list. Go to the official Banana Ball tickets page and sign up for the Ticket Lottery List.
2. Pick San Diego. Select San Diego as your City of Interest. If you don’t, you aren’t in the running for the Petco Park games.
3. Beat the deadline. Entries close Saturday, October 31, 2026 at 8:59 PM PT.
4. Wait for the drawing. A random drawing happens before the event. In past years it’s taken place roughly two months out.
5. Watch your inbox. If you’re drawn, you’ll get an opportunity to purchase available tickets. Add the Bananas’ emails to your safe-senders list so the notice doesn’t land in spam.

The fine print: Joining the list does not guarantee you’ll get the chance to buy tickets. And you must be on the list to be selected — there’s no other path to face-value tickets from the Bananas.

Does signing up early help? No. The Bananas have said the drawing is random, so the day you join doesn’t change your odds. But don’t wait until Halloween night either.

How Much Do Tickets Cost?

2027 Petco Park pricing hasn't been announced. For the March 2026 games, official tickets started at $35. If you see listings far above that, you're looking at resale.

Private Suites for Groups

Want to bring your whole crew? The Padres are offering private suites for the Banana Ball games. Fill out the Suite Information form on the Padres’ Savannah Bananas event page and a Padres representative will contact you with details.

VIP Banana Tour

For the March 2026 games, the Padres sold a separate VIP Banana Tour add-on: a pre-game, behind-the-scenes look at areas of Petco Park normally off-limits to fans, ending with the famous banana pudding and first crack at merchandise. You needed both a game ticket and a tour ticket for the same date. It hasn't been announced for 2027 yet — we'll update this page if it returns.

Resale Tickets

Didn’t get picked? Resale is the fallback. Last time, both games sold out and resale tickets were still available on game day — at well above face value.

A word of caution: The Bananas have warned that tickets bought through third-party sites are often fraudulent and may not be accepted at the gate. If you go the resale route, stick with a marketplace that offers a buyer guarantee, and never pay a stranger on social media.

How to Avoid Ticket Scams

• Social media offers are almost always scams. The Bananas say the overwhelming majority of ticket offers on social platforms are fake.
• The lottery is free. Anyone charging you to “enter” or “guarantee” a spot is scamming you.
• Official Banana Ball tickets come through FansFirst. If someone sends you a “lottery winner” link on another domain, don’t click it.
• Don’t pay with Venmo, Zelle, or gift cards to someone you don’t know. There’s no protection if the tickets never show up.

Digital Tickets

Here's how it worked last time; we'll confirm for 2027:

• Banana Ball lottery tickets were on the FansFirst platform and became available for download to your mobile wallet 72 hours before first pitch.
• Padres Season Ticket Member presale, suite, and hospitality tickets were in the MLB Ballpark app.

Either way: transfer tickets to everyone in your party ahead of time so each person has their own on their phone. Gate lines move much faster.
