Party Bus Rentals Lafayette, Louisiana

Festival International de Louisiane is the largest international music and arts festival in the United States, drawing over 300,000 people to downtown Lafayette each April. Parking is nearly impossible, and rideshares surge to triple rates. A party bus keeps your group together, provides a place to relax between sets, and avoids DUI risk after a day of drinking. You can store coolers, chairs, and merch on board, and use the restroom while stuck in traffic. It’s the best way to experience a world-class event without logistical headaches.

Lake Martin is a top destination for birdwatching, kayaking, and photography. Located 30 minutes from Lafayette, it has limited parking and no facilities. A party bus can drop your group at the trailhead, provide shade and storage for gear, and serve as a basecamp for picnics or drone flights. You’ll avoid mosquito bites and sunburn by relaxing inside with cold drinks and AC. Perfect for nature clubs, scout troops, or engagement shoots.

The Tabasco Factory on Avery Island is one of Louisiana’s most popular tourist attractions, but it’s an hour from Lafayette and hard to reach without a car. A party bus turns the trip into a rolling tailgate, with video screens to show the history of hot sauce and coolers stocked with local beer. You can bring a large group at once, get discounted admission, and skip the gift shop by ordering products online during the ride home. Great for foodies, corporate outings, or bachelor parties.

The Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival is a bucket-list event for anyone who loves Cajun culture, but it draws huge crowds and fills every parking lot for miles. A party bus rental allows your group to arrive together, set up a home base near the main stage, and take breaks from the heat whenever needed. You can pregame with boiled seafood, dance to zydeco music, and sleep off the drive back to Lafayette. Cheaper than booking multiple hotel rooms and walking along Highway 31 after dark.

Vermilionville Historic Village is a living history museum that showcases Acadian, Creole, and Native American culture. Perfect for school field trips, family reunions, or church groups, but difficult to access by public transit. A party bus rental provides door-to-door service, climate control, and space for strollers or wheelchairs. You can watch educational videos en route, eat lunch on board, and visit other attractions like the Lafayette Science Museum or Zoosiana in the same day. Affordable, flexible, and fun for all ages.

The Acadiana Center for the Arts hosts concerts, plays, and art exhibits year-round. Downtown parking is expensive and hard to find, especially during Festival International or Mardi Gras. A party bus rental lets your group attend shows together, pregame at local bars, and avoid walking several blocks after dark. You can split the cost, bring your own drinks, and turn any night out into a special occasion. Also ideal for weddings, fundraisers, or corporate events held at the ACA.

Parish Brewing Company in Broussard makes some of the best craft beer in Louisiana, including Ghost in the Machine and Canebrake. Their taproom is 20 minutes from Lafayette and not served by Uber after midnight. A party bus rental allows your group to sample every beer on tap, tour the brewhouse, and buy cases to go. You can visit multiple breweries in one day, bring food trucks onboard, and host a private tasting with a cicerone. Cheaper than getting a DUI and more fun than sitting at a bar downtown.

Downtown Lafayette ArtWalk happens on the second Saturday of each month, with galleries, shops, and restaurants staying open late. Parking is tight and streets are closed to traffic. A party bus rental drops your group off at the start of the route, picks you up at the end, and provides a place to store purchases or rest your feet. You can drink wine between stops, listen to live music, and support local artists without worrying about towing or tickets. Perfect for date nights, double dates, or Meetup groups.

The Cajundome is Lafayette’s premier venue for concerts, sporting events, and conventions. Located on the University of Louisiana at Lafayette campus, it hosts major touring acts, Ragin’ Cajuns basketball games, and regional expos. Parking lots fill up quickly, and exiting after a sold-out show can take over an hour. A party bus rental allows your group to tailgate before the event, avoid long walks from distant lots, and relax on the way home. You can store coolers, folding chairs, or merchandise on board, and split the cost of transportation among friends.

Avery Island is home to the world-famous TABASCO® Sauce factory, botanical gardens, and wildlife sanctuary. Located 45 minutes south of Lafayette, it’s a must-see attraction for visitors and locals alike. A party bus rental makes it easy to bring a large group for a guided tour of the pepper sauce production process, followed by a tasting session and lunch at the on-site restaurant. You can explore the Jungle Gardens, spot alligators and exotic birds, and enjoy scenic views of the bayou. Avoid the hassle of coordinating multiple vehicles or relying on limited public transportation options.

We recommend booking your party bus at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during a busy season like Mardi Gras, homecoming, or wedding season. Lafayette is a popular destination for events and festivals, so buses can sell out quickly. If you’re planning a trip during a less busy time of year, one to three months in advance may be sufficient. However, it’s always better to book early to ensure you get the exact bus you want at the best price. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have availability, but your options may be limited.

Yes, a non-refundable deposit is required to secure your reservation. The balance is typically due 30 days before the date of your trip. For bookings made less than 30 days in advance, full payment is required at the time of booking. We accept major credit cards, wire transfers, and other forms of payment. Please note that reservations are not confirmed until the deposit is received.
