In 2022, Cannonball presented 60+ shows for 300+ performances over 30 days for 6800+ attendees in two venues.MINIBALL is a micro-version of the Cannonball Festival featuring new works and encores of previous Cannonball shows that keep the spirit of Cannonball sailing strong throughout the year. The first Miniball in April 2022 featured 20+ performances of seven different shows over six days.
