Party Bus Rentals Austin, Texas

The Moody Center is Austin’s top spot for major concerts and sporting events, drawing massive crowds and making parking a nightmare-unless you book a party bus with Austin Party Bus Company. Located on the UT campus, this state-of-the-art arena hosts everyone from Lizzo to the Austin Spurs and big-name comedians like Kevin Hart and Trevor Noah. Catching a show here often means navigating construction detours and campus traffic. With us, your entire group rides together, pre-games on the way, and gets dropped off just steps from the entrance-no need to park a mile away or deal with rideshare price surges when the show lets out. We handle all the driving so you can focus on having fun.

Rainey Street has become one of Austin’s hottest nightlife destinations-but getting there and back with a large group isn’t easy unless you’re riding with Austin Party Bus Company. This neighborhood is packed with craft beer bars, live music venues, and rooftop patios inside converted bungalows, but curbside drop-offs are tricky due to narrow streets and limited valet zones along East Avenue. With a party bus, your group arrives together ready to hit Clive Bar, Half Step, or Container Bar without worrying about splitting up into multiple Ubers or finding expensive garage parking near Waller Beach. When it’s time to head home, everyone boards the bus and relaxes while we handle the late-night traffic on I-35 or South Congress Avenue. There’s no better way to do a bar crawl on Rainey than in a private party bus.

No trip to Austin is complete without experiencing the legendary Sixth Street Entertainment District, but navigating this area with a group can be chaotic. The famous “Dirty Sixth” stretches from Congress Avenue to I-35 and becomes pedestrian-only after dark-which means no easy parking or quick pickups for rideshares. A party bus solves everything: we drop your group off at the west end near The Driskill Hotel or east end by Stubb’s BBQ, then wait in a designated zone until you’re ready to leave. Spend the night hopping between Maggie Mae’s rooftop stage, Coyote Ugly Saloon, and Elysium without ever worrying about how everyone will get home comfortably. Unlike cabs or public transit, your party bus operates on your schedule-perfect for bachelor/bachelorette parties and birthday celebrations.

Zilker Metropolitan Park is home to some of Austin’s biggest events-including the iconic Austin City Limits (ACL) Music Festival-and booking a party bus with Austin Party Bus Company makes getting there simple and stress-free. Located just south of Lady Bird Lake, Zilker hosts massive festivals that draw tens of thousands of people, creating major congestion on Barton Springs Road and Mopac Expressway. With a party bus, your group bypasses the headache of shuttling from remote parking lots at Toney Burger Center or the Palmer Events Center garage. Instead, you’re dropped off together near the Mopac pedestrian bridge or Barton Springs Pool entrance, ready to enjoy the concert without hiking in from a mile away. After the show, skip the long lines for Capital Metro shuttles-your private bus is waiting to take everyone home comfortably. It’s the easiest way to do ACL, Blues on the Green, or Trail of Lights with a big group.

Catching an Austin FC match at Q2 Stadium in North Burnet is an experience every soccer fan should have-and a party bus makes it even better. Q2 Stadium is the new home of Austin FC and hosts massive MLS matches, international friendlies, and even concerts-drawing huge crowds to North Burnet. Parking here is notoriously limited, with passes selling out fast and most fans forced to park offsite at McKalla Place or rideshare from The Domain shopping complex. A party bus keeps your whole group together, allowing you to pregame on board with drinks and music while avoiding the $40+ parking fees. We drop you off close to the stadium entrance near Burnet Road or Braker Lane, then navigate post-game traffic while everyone relaxes in reclining seats. Whether you’re supporting Austin FC or catching a special event, a party bus ensures the ride is part of the celebration.

For a true Austin party experience, grab some friends and head out to Lake Travis for the day. Located just 20 miles west of downtown, this reservoir is a favorite spot for boating, swimming, and soaking up the sun. Rent a pontoon boat or jet skis from Just For Fun Watercraft Rentals and cruise around the lake, then stop by The Oasis on Lake Travis for dinner with a view. Known as the “Sunset Capital of Texas,” this multi-level restaurant offers stunning views of the water and surrounding hills. End your day with a drink at one of the lakeside bars before heading back into town.

Circuit of the Americas is a world-class racetrack located just outside Austin that hosts events like Formula 1 races, MotoGP, and major concerts-making it a perfect destination for a party bus trip. Getting there involves a 15-mile drive southeast down Highway 71 to Elroy Road, where traffic backs up for miles during big events and parking costs $100+ per car. A party bus eliminates the hassle: your group arrives together, ready to tailgate in Lot H or P with coolers and lawn chairs stored onboard. After the race or concert, skip the gridlock by relaxing in air-conditioned comfort while we handle the hour-long exit wait on FM 812 and TX-130 Toll. It’s the only way to do COTA with a large group.

Seeing a show at ACL Live at the Moody Theater is a bucket-list experience for any music lover, but downtown parking can ruin the vibe. This intimate venue in the 2nd Street District hosts tapings of Austin City Limits and concerts by artists like Willie Nelson and The Lumineers. Parking garages nearby fill up fast, and street parking is expensive. With a party bus, your group gets dropped off right at the front entrance, saving time and money. After the show, everyone boards the bus and heads to the next destination or home without worrying about parking tickets or finding their car in a crowded garage. It’s the ultimate way to see live music in Austin.

No trip to Austin is complete without a visit to the Texas State Capitol. This historic building offers free guided tours daily, giving visitors a chance to learn about the state’s history and government. The Capitol grounds are beautiful, featuring monuments, statues, and scenic views of downtown Austin. After your tour, stroll down Congress Avenue to check out local shops and grab a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants nearby. Don’t forget to take a photo of the Capitol dome-it’s taller than the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.!

The Drag is a vibrant stretch of Guadalupe Street running alongside the University of Texas at Austin campus, lined with coffee shops, bookstores, and student hangouts. This area is perfect for groups looking to experience college-town energy, catch a show at the Cactus Cafe, or browse vintage clothing stores. The Drag can be difficult to access during peak hours due to limited parking and heavy traffic from both students and city buses. Booking a party bus simplifies the trip, providing convenient drop-off and pick-up options while keeping everyone together for a fun day exploring one of Austin’s most iconic neighborhoods.
