Party Buses โ€“ The Ride Is the Event

You want to turn your celebration into something unforgettable. But coordinating rideshares, worrying about designated drivers, and hoping everyone arrives safely kills the vibe before it even starts. That's why Bus2Ride party buses put the party on wheels โ€” LED lighting, booming sound systems, dance floors, wet bars, and a professional chauffeur โ€” all at an all-inclusive price with gratuity already included.

Did You Know?

What's the best way to plan a multi-stop party bus route?

Map out your stops in geographic order to minimize drive time between venues. Share the itinerary with your driver in advance so they can plan parking and timing. Limit stops to 3โ€“4 for a 4-hour rental โ€” too many stops eat into your party time. Your driver is a great local resource for route advice.

The Ultimate Guide to Party Bus Rentals

Everyone dreams of a celebration that starts the moment the group comes together โ€” not hours later at the venue. But the logistics of getting 15, 30, or even 50 people safely from point A to point B (and C, D, and E) while keeping the energy high is a nightmare of rideshare coordination, designated driver debates, and split-up groups arriving at different times. That's why a party bus rental from Bus2Ride transforms the journey itself into the main event โ€” a mobile celebration venue where everyone rides together, the music never stops, and a professional chauffeur handles every turn so your only job is having the time of your life.

At Bus2Ride, our nationwide party bus fleet ranges from intimate 15-passenger models perfect for a night out with your closest friends, to jaw-dropping 50-passenger mobile nightclubs that rival any VIP lounge in the country. Every party bus in our network is professionally maintained, fully insured, and driven by a vetted, CDL-certified chauffeur (where required by law) who has passed background checks, drug testing, and defensive driving training. Your safety is not an add-on โ€” it is the foundation of every ride.

Inside a Bus2Ride party bus, you will find features that set the stage for an unforgettable experience. Our vehicles are outfitted with concert-quality sound systems featuring deep subwoofers and crystal-clear highs, color-changing LED and laser lighting that can be dialed to any mood or theme, wraparound leather seating, and built-in wet bars with ice coolers, glassware, and bottle service areas. Our buses are BYOB-friendly for passengers 21 and older โ€” bring your own beer, wine, and seltzers. Note that hard alcohol may not be permitted on some vehicles, and your booking confirmation will specify the rules for your particular bus. No smoking and no pets are allowed on any vehicle. Decorations are welcome with prior approval โ€” just let us know what you are planning during the booking process.

Party buses are the most versatile vehicle in our fleet, wildly popular for bachelor and bachelorette parties, birthday celebrations of all ages (Sweet 16s, milestone 30th/40th/50th birthdays), bar crawls and pub crawls, brewery and wine tours, casino trips, prom and homecoming, tailgating, concert rides, nightclub crawls, New Year's Eve celebrations, graduation parties, divorce parties, holiday outings, and Quinceaรฑeras. With capacities from 15 to 50, there is a party bus sized for every group.

How has technology changed the charter bus industry?

All-Inclusive Pricing โ€” No Surprises

Everyone wants to know the total cost upfront. But too many rental companies advertise a low hourly rate and then pile on fuel surcharges, cleaning fees, and a mandatory 18โ€“20% gratuity that inflates the real price by 30% or more. That's why every Bus2Ride party bus quote is all-inclusive: the price includes the vehicle, professional chauffeur, fuel, insurance, and gratuity. What you see is what you pay. No envelope of cash, no post-trip invoice shock.

Party bus rental rates generally range from $150 to $400 per hour for standard models (15โ€“30 passengers) and $400 to $750 per hour for our largest, most amenity-rich party buses (35โ€“50 passengers). Nights and weekends require a 4-hour minimum. Sundays have a 3-hour minimum. Prom rentals on Saturdays during March through May require a 6-hour minimum. Weekend rates are typically 15โ€“25% higher than weekday rates. Package deals for bar crawls, birthday parties, and bachelor/bachelorette celebrations often save 10โ€“20%.

A 50% deposit secures your reservation. The remaining balance is due 7โ€“14 days before your event. Cancel 30+ days out for a full refund, 15โ€“29 days for 50% refund, under 15 days is non-refundable. We accept all major credit cards. Request a free, no-obligation quote or call (888) 535-2566.

Safety You Can Trust

Everyone agrees safety matters โ€” especially when your group is celebrating. But not every company in this industry takes it seriously.
