Party Bus Rentals Grand Rapids, Michigan

Skip the downtown traffic and sold-out parking ramps by taking a party bus to Van Andel Arena for your next concert or hockey game. Located at 130 Fulton St W, this 12,000-seat venue hosts major tours, Griffins games, and family shows year-round. Parking is expensive and often requires a long walk—but a party bus can drop your group off curbside before securing off-site parking until it’s time to head home. You’ll avoid the post-event gridlock on Fulton and Weston while enjoying drinks and music on the ride back.

Perfect for school trips, corporate outings, or wedding photos, Frederik Meijer Gardens is one of Michigan’s top cultural attractions. Located at 1000 E Beltline Ave NE, it features 158 acres of indoor/outdoor gardens and world-class sculpture. Bus parking is available on-site, but space must be reserved in advance—especially during spring break or summer concert season. A party bus keeps everyone on schedule and out of the weather between exhibits.

Located at 1300 W Fulton St, John Ball Zoo is a favorite destination for families, birthday parties, and elementary field trips. The hilltop location means parking is limited; overflow lots require crossing busy streets. Arriving by party bus ensures your entire group enters together and avoids the uphill hike from remote lots. Bring a cooler for lunch and store it onboard until picnic time.

Grand Rapids earned the title “Beer City USA” thanks to its vibrant craft brewing scene. Plan a custom brewery tour with stops at Founders Brewing Co. (235 Grandville Ave SW), Brewery Vivant (925 Cherry St SE), Harmony Brewing Company (1551 Lake Dr SE), and more. With a private driver, your group can sample IPAs, stouts, and sours without calling Ubers or designating a sober driver. Many breweries have limited parking—especially in East Hills and Wealthy Street districts—but a party bus can navigate side streets and wait nearby between stops.

Beat the heat with a day trip to Holland State Park, Grand Haven City Beach, or Oval Beach in Saugatuck. Beach parking fills up by mid-morning on weekends, forcing late arrivals to hike miles with coolers and umbrellas. A party bus drops your group off at the dune crossover and handles parking logistics while you swim and sunbathe. Rinse off sandy feet before boarding for the ride home.

Located at 303 Pearl St NW, the Ford Museum offers exhibits on American history, politics, and the life of the 38th president. It’s a popular destination for middle school civics classes and tour groups visiting downtown. Bus loading zones are located on Pearl Street, but space is limited during weekday mornings. Coordinate arrival times carefully and use onboard video screens to preview exhibits en route.

Architecture enthusiasts will appreciate a guided tour of the Meyer May House, a Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece located at 450 Madison Ave SE. Tours are free but must be scheduled weeks in advance. The surrounding Heritage Hill neighborhood has narrow streets and limited parking; a minibuss or sprinter van is recommended for smaller groups. Larger buses should drop passengers at the corner of Madison and Logan before finding parking elsewhere.

Held every autumn, ArtPrize transforms downtown Grand Rapids into an open-air gallery featuring hundreds of artists from around the world. Navigating multiple venues across the city center is easiest with a dedicated shuttle. Customize your route to hit favorite installations at the GRAM, UICA, and Devos Place while avoiding congested parking decks.

Located at 272 Pearl St NW, the Grand Rapids Public Museum offers three floors of exhibits ranging from local history to science and culture. It’s a staple for elementary and middle school field trips. Buses can unload passengers in the circle drive off Pearl Street, but must park off-site during the visit. Bring sack lunches to eat on the riverfront plaza or arrange catering through the museum café.

Home to the West Michigan Whitecaps, Fifth Third Ballpark (now LMCU Ballpark) hosts minor league baseball games, concerts, and winter festivals. The stadium is located at 4500 West River Dr NE in Comstock Park, just north of Grand Rapids. Catching a game with friends or coworkers is easy when you ride together on a party bus. Tailgate in the parking lot before first pitch and skip the hassle of merging onto US-131 after the final inning. Special packages are available for bachelor parties, birthday celebrations, and corporate outings.
