Choose Available Amenities on Your Saint Paul Bus
Different trips call for different setups. A 15–50 passenger party bus typically comes with perimeter seating, color-changing LED lighting, a premium sound system with Bluetooth connectivity, flat-panel TVs, and a built-in bar setup — the right fit when the ride itself is part of the night. A minibus is a cleaner pick for corporate shuttles, wedding guest transfers between the Saint Paul Hotel and a reception venue in White Bear Lake, or school group transportation — with reclining seats, climate control, and overhead storage.
For longer hauls or large groups heading to U.S. Bank Stadium or a corporate conference, a full-size charter bus adds undercarriage luggage bays and onboard restrooms. Amenities vary by vehicle, but the quote tool shows you exactly what each option includes.
Air-conditioning
Wraparound Leather Seats

Saint Paul Party Bus Rental Prices

The Right Bus for Your Saint Paul Group Is Here
Here's the problem with calling bus companies one at a time: you describe your trip from scratch each call, wait on callbacks that come back at different times in different formats, and end up trying to compare quotes that weren't built the same way. That's the old way. Partybusinminneapolis.com replaces all of that with one form.
Fill it out once — date, group size, pickup and drop-off — and you're looking at available vehicles and rates from multiple transportation companies serving Saint Paul and the Twin Cities in under 30 seconds. Because the site isn't tied to one fleet, you're not limited to whatever a single company happens to have available on your date. More options means a better fit and a better price.
You get to compare side by side and find exactly what works for your group.
And if you'd rather talk it through, a support team is available every day of the year at 612-234-4015 — no hold music, no callback queue. Just call, describe your trip, and get a quote on the spot. That's it.
That's the whole process. Call 612-234-4015 now!
Party Bus Services for Saint Paul Occasions
Partybusinminneapolis.com helps groups find the right bus for every kind of trip in Saint Paul — from MSP airport transfers and wedding shuttles to prom night, Wild and Saints games, concert transportation, corporate shuttles, and school field trips. Whatever the occasion, the right vehicle is in the network.

Saint Paul Airport Shuttles & Transportation
Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) sits just 8 miles southwest of downtown Saint Paul — roughly 15–20 minutes in normal traffic, but I-494 west of the airport and the stretch of I-35E heading into the city both back up hard during morning and evening rush. For a group of 10 or more arriving on the same flight, coordinating rideshares from the Ground Transportation Center on the Lindbergh Terminal's lower level means staggered wait times, multiple surge-priced vehicles, and the very real possibility that someone's still circling while the rest of the group is already at the hotel.
A single charter bus or minibus handles the whole group in one pickup — your coordinator confirms luggage is collected and the group is assembled at the Ground Transportation Center, and one vehicle pulls the entire group straight to the hotel, office, or venue. No splitting up, no waiting for the last rideshare to arrive. For departure-day airport runs, the same logic applies: one vehicle, one confirmed pickup time, nobody cutting it close.
Call 612-234-4015 to set up your MSP airport shuttle!

Saint Paul Bachelor & Bachelorette Transportation
Saint Paul's nightlife runs from the Lowertown warehouse district — where Bin Wine Bar (213 E 4th St) and the Happy Gnome (498 Selby Ave) anchor opposite ends of the night — to the dive bars and craft taprooms along West 7th Street. The challenge with a group night out across multiple neighborhoods is that Lowertown, Cathedral Hill, and Grand Avenue don't connect in a straight line. Parking a fleet of cars between three different stops on a Saturday night means someone's always walking farther than expected, and the rideshare queue on 5th Street after midnight is genuinely chaotic.
A Saint Paul bachelorette party bus — a 20- or 25-passenger bus with LED lighting, Bluetooth sound, and perimeter seating — keeps the whole group together from the first stop to the last and eliminates every parking and rideshare decision along the way. The night runs on your timeline, not the app's. Call 612-234-4015 now to check availability for your date!

Saint Paul Birthday, Sweet 16, & Quinceañera Party Bus Rentals
A party bus arrival is one of the most memorable ways to kick off a milestone birthday in Saint Paul — and the Twin Cities metro has no shortage of reception halls and event venues set up for Sweet 16s and quinceañeras. Venues like the Saint Paul Athletic Club (340 Cedar St), Allegra Event Center in Newport, and the many ballroom spaces in the south suburbs all work well with a party bus pickup and drop-off plan. For a group of 15–25, an 18-passenger or 25-passenger party bus with LED lighting and a premium sound system is a natural fit — the entrance alone makes the night.
For adult milestone birthdays hitting the Grand Avenue restaurant corridor or heading across the river to Minneapolis for a late night, a Sprinter limo or 15-passenger party bus keeps the group together without the parking headache on Summit or Grand. Use the online quote tool or call 612-234-4015 to compare options for your date — a Saint Paul birthday party bus quote comes back in about a minute.

Saint Paul Concert Transportation & Shuttles
Saint Paul's biggest concert venue is Grand Casino Arena (199 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102), a nearly 18,000-seat arena in the heart of downtown that books major touring acts year-round alongside Minnesota Wild games. The surface lots immediately surrounding the arena fill up fast on sold-out nights, and the ramps on Kellogg Boulevard and West 7th Street hit capacity well before showtime. Rideshare pickup after a 10:30 PM show end means competing with 15,000 other people for cars on a handful of downtown Saint Paul blocks.
A Saint Paul concert bus rental drops your group at the arena's main entrance on Kellogg Boulevard and handles the postgame logistics entirely — one prearranged pickup, no app-staring in the cold. The RiverCentre Parking Ramp (150 W Kellogg Blvd) and Science Museum Ramp (120 Kellogg Blvd W) are close but fill fast on big nights. Grand Casino Arena also hosts major touring concerts that sell out months in advance — book the bus when you book the tickets.
Call 612-234-4015 for availability!

Saint Paul Corporate Event Transportation
The Saint Paul RiverCentre (175 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102) hosts conventions, trade shows, and large corporate events year-round, directly connected to Grand Casino Arena and the Radisson Blu hotel. Downtown Saint Paul's one-way street grid — Kellogg, Wabasha, Cedar, and Robert running in alternating directions — catches out-of-town groups fast. A minibus is a strong fit for shuttling conference attendees between downtown hotels like the Saint Paul Hotel (350 Market St) and the RiverCentre's loading dock entrances on West Kellogg, keeping the group on schedule without a fleet of rental cars nobody wants to park.
For larger corporate events or multi-site employee shuttles — think a company headquartered in the I-94 corridor near Eagan or Mendota Heights moving staff to a Saint Paul venue — a charter bus handles the headcount and the luggage in one trip. Onboard WiFi and power outlets on select vehicles mean the ride doesn't have to be dead time. A Saint Paul corporate transportation quote takes about a minute — call 612-234-4015 to get the right vehicle matched to your event logistics.

Saint Paul Private Event Transportation Services
The Winter Carnival — Saint Paul's signature annual event, running late January into early February — draws tens of thousands of visitors to Rice Park, CHS Field, and Kellogg Boulevard for ice sculpture competitions, the Vulcan parade, and the Grande Day Parade along the downtown corridor. During parade days, Kellogg Boulevard closes to through traffic, surface lots around Rice Park fill well before noon, and rideshare pickup zones shift without much warning. A private charter bus or minibus drops your group at a confirmed staging point before the closures tighten and retrieves everyone at the same spot — no scrambling to find cars after dark in January.
The Saint Paul Saints' opening weekend at CHS Field (360 Broadway St, Saint Paul, MN 55101) in late April draws large crowds to Lowertown, where street parking on the numbered streets east of downtown fills by first pitch. Summer food festivals along the riverfront and the Grand Old Day festival on Grand Avenue in early June add more high-demand dates where a private Saint Paul event bus makes the day significantly easier. Call 612-234-4015 — for Winter Carnival and peak spring dates, book 6–8 weeks out at minimum.

Saint Paul Homecoming & Prom Party Bus Rentals
Prom season across Ramsey County runs late April through May, with high schools like Cretin-Derham Hall, Harding, Johnson, and Highland Park all scheduling within the same tight window. That 4–6 week window is the single busiest period of the year for party bus rentals in the Twin Cities — and availability gets thin fast. For prom: book by January or expect premium pricing and limited vehicle selection.
Waiting until March to book is a real gamble. Waiting until April almost always costs more — or leaves the group without the bus they wanted.
Partybusinminneapolis.com makes it easy to compare party buses side by side and lock in a vehicle before the rush. For homecoming in September and October, lead time is less critical but earlier is still better — popular dates book out 6–8 weeks ahead. Check the prom and homecoming page for more, and call 612-234-4015 to confirm availability for your date right now.

Saint Paul School Event & Field Trip Transportation
Saint Paul's school field trip circuit covers a lot of ground — from the Science Museum of Minnesota (120 Kellogg Blvd W, Saint Paul, MN 55102) and the Minnesota Children's Museum (10 W 7th St, Saint Paul, MN 55102) in downtown Saint Paul, to the Minnesota History Center (345 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102) up on the hill above the capitol, to the Minnesota Zoo in Apple Valley for groups willing to make the 25-minute run down I-35E. Downtown destinations mean navigating Kellogg Boulevard's commercial vehicle lanes and limited bus staging areas — something worth confirming with the venue before the trip date.
A charter bus or minibus found through Partybusinminneapolis.com gives teachers and chaperones onboard storage for bags and lunches, overhead bins, and on select vehicles, TV screens that keep students occupied on longer drives. ADA-accessible vehicles are available in the network — just note it when you request a quote. For student-athlete travel across the metro, a school event charter bus keeps the team together and on schedule.
Call 612-234-4015 to get a quote for your next field trip.

Saint Paul Sporting Event Transportation
Grand Casino Arena (199 W Kellogg Blvd) hosts the Minnesota Wild, and game nights in downtown Saint Paul create the same postgame traffic knot each game: I-35E northbound backs up from Kellogg to Maryland Avenue, West 7th Street turns into a slow crawl toward the freeway ramps, and the surface lots around the arena charge $20–$35 a night with no guarantee of space on a sold-out game. A group heading to a Wild game from the east metro — Woodbury, Maplewood, Oakdale — faces an hour-plus drive home if the timing is off.
A Saint Paul sporting event bus rental drops the group at the Kellogg Boulevard entrance before the lots fill and handles the postgame exit without anyone stuck in the West 7th Street crawl. For Twins and Vikings games across the river, a charter bus on I-94 west keeps everyone together rather than coordinating three separate cars on a packed highway. CHS Field (360 Broadway St) for Saints games is a shorter, more relaxed night — a Saint Paul sports bus handles Lowertown parking entirely.
Call 612-234-4015 for game-day availability!

Saint Paul Wedding Transportation & Shuttle Service
Saint Paul's wedding venue circuit spans a wide geography — the Cathedral of Saint Paul (239 Selby Ave) for ceremonies, the Saint Paul Hotel (350 Market St) and the Intercontinental Saint Paul Riverfront (11 E Kellogg Blvd) for receptions, and marquee suburban venues like Prom Center in Oakdale or Craguns and Madden's up north for destination weekends. The challenge is almost always the same: out-of-town guests staying at a downtown hotel block who need to reach a venue 20–40 minutes away without renting cars they'll have to return before checkout.
A Saint Paul wedding shuttle bus — typically a 15–35 passenger minibus for guest shuttles and a Sprinter limo for the wedding party — handles every leg of the day cleanly: hotel to ceremony, ceremony to cocktail hour, reception to hotel. The Cathedral of Saint Paul's Selby Avenue approach has very limited street parking on weekend afternoons, which makes a drop-off bus the practical answer for large wedding parties anyway. Lock in the vehicle early — June through October Saturdays fill out months ahead.
Call 612-234-4015 to get a quote for your date.

Saint Paul Winery Tour & Pub Crawl Transportation
The Twin Cities metro has quietly built a real craft beverage circuit worth an afternoon itinerary — and Saint Paul sits in the middle of it. Vine Park Brewing (1254 W 7th St, Saint Paul, MN 55102) on the West 7th corridor, Burning Brothers Brewing (1750 Thomas Ave, Saint Paul, MN 55104) near Hamline-Midway, and Urban Growler Brewing (2325 Endicott St, Saint Paul, MN 55114) in the Midway neighborhood make a natural three-stop loop across the city. For groups wanting to cross the river, Surly Brewing's destination taproom in Minneapolis and Excelsior Brewing in Excelsior on Lake Minnetonka both make strong additions to a full-day run.
A Saint Paul pub crawl bus rental handles the routing between neighborhoods — Hamline-Midway and West 7th aren't an easy walk between them — and keeps the group together from stop to stop without anyone designated to skip the tasting. Street parking at Burning Brothers and Urban Growler is limited on weekend afternoons, which makes the bus the practical solution as much as the fun one. Call 612-234-4015 to compare party buses and minibuses for your tour date!

How much does a party bus cost in Saint Paul?
Party bus rental prices in Saint Paul depend on the vehicle size, the day of the week, and your itinerary. As a planning reference: a 15-passenger party bus runs roughly $200–$350/hour on weekdays and $250–$350/hour on weekends. A 25-passenger party bus runs about $250–$375/hour on weekends.
A charter bus for larger groups typically runs $200–$350/hour. These are ranges to help you plan — the real rate for your specific date and trip comes back fast when you call 612-234-4015 or fill out the online form. Visit the party bus prices page for more detail.
Where do buses drop off at Grand Casino Arena?
Grand Casino Arena's main public entrance faces Kellogg Boulevard on the south side of the building. Commercial vehicle drop-off uses the Kellogg Boulevard curb, with the RiverCentre Parking Ramp (150 W Kellogg Blvd) and the Science Museum Ramp (120 Kellogg Blvd W) as the two closest staging options for buses waiting during an event. Postgame pickup should be arranged at a confirmed spot before the event ends — Kellogg clears faster than the West 7th Street and Cedar Street exits, making it the better pickup approach for most groups.
Always check the official Grand Casino Arena parking page before your visit for current event-day guidance.
How does a bus pick up a group at MSP Airport?
At Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, commercial buses pick up from the Ground Transportation Center on the lower level of the Lindbergh Terminal (Terminal 1). Once your group has collected all luggage and is assembled together, your group coordinator contacts the bus to confirm the vehicle moves to the correct commercial lane curbside. The key rule: don't call the bus until everyone is together with bags — MSP's Ground Transportation Center moves quickly on busy arrival periods, and timing coordination matters.
For groups arriving into the Humphrey Terminal (Terminal 2), ground transportation pickup uses the Terminal 2 lower level roadway. Review the official MSP ground transportation page before your arrival date for current commercial vehicle guidance.
What's the best vehicle for a Saint Paul bachelorette party?
For a group of 10–20 doing a multi-stop night across Lowertown, West 7th, and Cathedral Hill, an 18- or 20-passenger party bus is usually the right fit — LED lighting, a sound system, perimeter seating, and enough room that the ride itself is part of the night. For a slightly larger group of 20–30, a 25-passenger party bus gives everyone space without needing to step up to a full charter bus. If the group is smaller — 10–14 people — a Sprinter limo gives you the amenities in a more nimble package.
Call 612-234-4015 and describe your headcount and itinerary; a support team can match you to the right option fast.
Do buses work for the Saint Paul Winter Carnival?
Yes — and they're often the smarter call specifically because of how Winter Carnival affects downtown Saint Paul. The Grande Day Parade closes Kellogg Boulevard to through traffic, surface lots near Rice Park and the Ordway fill hours before parade time, and temperatures in late January mean a long walk from a remote lot is genuinely uncomfortable. A charter bus or minibus can stage at a confirmed pickup point outside the parade closure zone and retrieve the group at the same location after the festivities — no cold wait for a rideshare, no hunting for a car in the dark.
Book early for Winter Carnival weekend: it's one of the highest-demand dates of the year in Saint Paul.
How far in advance should I book a party bus in Saint Paul?
For most events, 4–8 weeks of lead time gives you solid options at reasonable rates. For peak-demand dates — prom season (April–May), Winter Carnival (late January/early February), Wild playoff runs, and major concert nights at Grand Casino Arena — book 2–4 months out. Prom is its own category: availability thins by February and pricing climbs as April approaches.
The earlier the booking, the better the vehicle selection and the better the rate. Call 612-234-4015 as soon as your date is confirmed to see what's available.
Popular Saint Paul Party Bus Destinations
Saint Paul's event and venue landscape runs from downtown arena nights at Grand Casino Arena to Rice Park in January, a Saints game at CHS Field in the summer, and Grand Avenue on any given weekend. Here's a look at the most popular destinations for Saint Paul group transportation — and the logistics that actually matter when you're moving a group there.

Grand Casino Arena
Grand Casino Arena (199 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102) — formerly Xcel Energy Center — seats nearly 18,000 for hockey and concerts and is the anchor of downtown Saint Paul's entertainment district. On sold-out Wild nights and major concerts, the surface lots on Kellogg and in the blocks between Cedar and St. Peter fill completely — often before doors open. The RiverCentre Parking Ramp directly adjacent charges $15–$25 per event.
Postgame, West 7th Street backs up for 30–40 minutes as 15,000 people try to reach the same two freeway on-ramps. A charter bus drops your group at the Kellogg Boulevard entrance steps from the main doors and handles the postgame exit without the West 7th crawl. Check the official Grand Casino Arena parking and directions page before game day.
Phone: (651) 726-8240

CHS Field
CHS Field (360 Broadway St, Saint Paul, MN 55101) is the home of the Saint Paul Saints, the Triple-A affiliate of the Minnesota Twins, and one of the best ballpark experiences in the minor leagues — 7,210-seat capacity, open sight lines, and a real grass field in the heart of Lowertown. Street parking on Broadway, Sibley, and the numbered streets east of downtown is metered and limited; the Broadway lots east of the stadium are your best independent option but sell out on fireworks nights and opening weekend. Lowertown's one-way street grid catches first-timers regularly on game days.
A party bus or minibus drops your group at the main gate on Broadway and stages nearby, eliminating the post-game hunt for cars across three different Lowertown blocks. Address: 360 Broadway St, Saint Paul, MN 55101 | Phone: (651) 644-6659

Science Museum of Minnesota
The Science Museum of Minnesota (120 Kellogg Blvd W, Saint Paul, MN 55102) sits on the Kellogg Boulevard bluff above the Mississippi River, directly adjacent to the RiverCentre complex. It's one of the most-visited field trip destinations in the state and a popular evening venue for private events and IMAX screenings. The museum's parking ramp is accessible from Chestnut Street on the west side of the building, but commercial bus access and large group drop-off should be arranged with the museum's group services team in advance — the Kellogg Boulevard frontage has limited commercial staging space.
For school groups making the trip from the east metro, a charter bus is far easier than a caravan of family vehicles trying to navigate the downtown one-way grid. Address: 120 Kellogg Blvd W, Saint Paul, MN 55102 | Phone: (651) 221-9444

Minnesota History Center
The Minnesota History Center (345 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102) occupies a prominent site on the hill between the State Capitol and Kellogg Boulevard, making it a natural anchor for school field trips, private events, and corporate gatherings. The building has its own surface lot off John Ireland Boulevard, but it's a smaller lot that fills on busy days — and the approach from I-94 eastbound dumps traffic onto the Cedar/Kellogg interchange, which backs up during rush hour. Commercial bus access uses the John Ireland Boulevard entrance; groups should confirm large vehicle access with the museum's event team before the trip date.
For school groups from the west metro, a charter bus from Plymouth or Eden Prairie to the History Center avoids the I-94 interchange entirely by approaching from the north. Address: 345 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102 | Phone: (651) 259-3000

Saint Paul Hotel
The Saint Paul Hotel (350 Market St, Saint Paul, MN 55102) anchors the south edge of Rice Park — one block from the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts and three blocks from Grand Casino Arena — making it the de facto hotel hub for major events in downtown Saint Paul. Weekend nights during Winter Carnival, Wild playoffs, and large conventions at the RiverCentre regularly sell out the Saint Paul Hotel and its neighboring properties months in advance. For wedding groups using the hotel as a reception venue or overnight block, a minibus shuttle between the hotel and a ceremony site at the Cathedral of Saint Paul (about a mile up Selby Avenue) handles the logistics cleanly — no guests navigating downtown one-way streets in formalwear.
The hotel's Market Street frontage is the natural drop-off point for bus shuttles. Address: 350 Market St, Saint Paul, MN 55102 | Phone: (651) 292-9292

Grand Avenue
Grand Avenue stretches two miles from Dale Street to Lexington Parkway through the Summit Hill and Mac-Groveland neighborhoods, lined with independent restaurants, wine bars, boutique shops, and coffee houses that make it Saint Paul's most walkable commercial corridor. Popular group stops include The Happy Gnome (498 Selby Ave at the eastern end of the Grand Avenue corridor), W.A. Frost and Company (374 Selby Ave) for upscale dining in a historic space, and the stretch of restaurants between Victoria and Fairview. On Grand Old Day weekend in early June — one of the largest street festivals in the Midwest — Grand Avenue closes entirely to vehicle traffic from Dale to Macalester, and parking within 6–8 blocks of the festival fills by mid-morning.
A party bus or minibus drops your group at either end of the closure and retrieves everyone at a confirmed time, making the festival entirely stress-free. Grand Avenue, Saint Paul, MN 55105
