ARRIVAL and POST-GAME INFORMATION
PARKING on campus is $20/vehicle per game or $40 for all-day parking. Electronic payment only, no cash accepted. Please enter at 76th Street. Upon entry, you will be given a parking slip to be displayed visibly on your dash. This slip will be color coded and list your expiration time. Any vehicles remaining in the lot past the point of expiry will be ticketed and/or towed at the vehicle owner’s expense. Parking is limited and expected to fill up quicky, especially on Saturday. Please plan to carpool/rideshare and arrive early. Look to parking staff for direction and see above for lot open times for your ticketed game.
There is a BIKE RACK located at the Main Entrance, and plenty of fencing to secure bikes if overflow is needed.
The designated RIDE SHARE drop-off/pick-up area can be accessed using the Rawson Street entrance to Ballpark Commons via Ballpark Drive. Look for signage in the parking lot adjacent to Dog Haus located at 7055 S Ballpark Drive, Franklin.
Diaper bags, strollers, and other accommodations for small children are permitted.
Fans are welcome to bring blankets for sitting in the Pastures (lawn seating); however, lawn chairs, large umbrellas, wagons, and carts are not permitted.
This event is SOLD OUT. Please be patient and expect a high volume of traffic post-game due to the nature of such a highly anticipated event.
Due to a City Ordinance, TAILGATING is not allowed. There will be plenty of food and beverage offered in the stadium.
Interested in PRE-GAME and/or POST-GAME FUN?? The Umbrella Bar at Ballpark Commons will be showing all of the in-stadium fun on the BIG screen for all three games! Blend Coffee & Cocktails, Brick Pizzeria & Ristorante, Dog Haus Biergarten, Hinterhof, and Luxe Golf Bays will all be going bananas with unique specials at each venue!
IN THE STADIUM
This is a GENERAL ADMISSION EVENT. Please look for ushers directing guests to open GENERAL ADMISSION spots within the INFIELD / SEATING BOWL and OUTFIELD BLEACHERS; once you find a spot, please squeeze in. There will be no empty seats at this event.
If you are ticketed in a HOSPITALITY AREA (Club, Hop Yard, Bays, Terrace), please check in at our HOSPITALITY WELCOME TENT before attempting to enter the stadium gates. You will not be able to enter the stadium without first checking in at the HOSPITALITY WELCOME TENT.
Also, for patrons seated in the Combo Terrace hospitality area, please note that hot dog + drink + chips pickup will be available from the time gates open through the 3rd inning.
Franklin Field is a CASHLESS VENUE. There are NO carry-ins. Food & beverages will be available at our concession stands, and merchandise will be available at the Team Store and the Savannah Bananas Merchandise Station.
CAMERAS and VIDEO EQUIPMENT are permitted to capture all of the fun! Please be mindful of your fellow fans and action on the field while taking pictures.
FOR YOUR SAFETY, keep your eye on the ball – that applies to both the players on the field as well as you the fan at Franklin Field. Catching a foul ball for an OUT during a game of Banana Ball is iconic! However, foul balls often are traveling at high rates of speed as they leave the playing field. Please be cautious.
