California ABC law permits alcohol consumption on chartered/hired vehicles such as party buses and limousines. BYOB is allowed on licensed charter transportation — the vehicle operator must hold proper TCP and CA PUC authority.

Events Across California

Signature events like Alameda Craft Beer Festival, Park Street Art & Wine Faire, Aliso Viejo Community Celebration, Movies in the Park keep our CA fleet busy alongside weddings, proms, corporate retreats, and game-day shuttles. Peak season — Award season (Jan-Mar), wedding season (May-Oct), wine harvest (Aug-Oct), and year-round in LA/SF — pushes the best vehicles off the market fast.
