40 Passenger Party Bus Rental
Getting 40 people across Lafayette in separate cars is exactly the kind of headache that turns a great night into a logistics nightmare. Festival International de Louisiane draws 300,000+ attendees to downtown Lafayette every April — rideshare surge pricing kicks in by 7pm, street parking on Jefferson Street evaporates hours before showtime, and your group ends up scattered across three different Ubers wondering where everyone went. A 40-passenger party bus rental solves every one of those problems before they start.
lafayettepartybuscompany.com makes it incredibly easy to compare 40-passenger party buses from providers serving the Lafayette area — fill out one quick form or call 337-446-8700 and get pricing in under a minute, no account required.

More About The 40 Passenger Party Bus
The 40-passenger party bus is the go-to vehicle when your group is too big for a minibus but you still want the energy of a true party bus — not just a charter bus with seats. These buses typically run 35 to 45 feet and seat up to 40 passengers in a lounge-style cabin with perimeter seating along the walls, so everyone faces each other instead of the back of someone's head. That layout matters a lot on a crawl through the Cajun Village district or a round-trip run from Lafayette down to Baton Rouge for an LSU game at Tiger Stadium.
The 40-passenger size also threads the needle nicely for medium-large wedding guest shuttles between the ceremony venue and a reception hall without needing to run two separate buses.

Common Amenities Available on 40 Passenger Party Bus Rentals

Climate control is standard — and in South Louisiana, where August humidity hits like a wall, a powerful A/C system is non-negotiable.

How much does a 40 Passenger Party Bus cost in Lafayette?
A 40-passenger party bus rental in Lafayette generally runs $300–$350 per hour on weekdays and $325–$500 per hour on weekends. Full-day rates typically fall in the $2,300–$3,500 range. Weekend rates run higher because demand is concentrated — Friday and Saturday nights during Festival International, Mardi Gras season, and Cajundome concert weekends push availability thin fast.
A multi-stop wedding shuttle on a Saturday in October books differently than a Tuesday corporate event, so the final price for your specific date and itinerary will depend on hours needed, the time of year, and which vehicles are available. Those ranges give you a solid planning number. For pricing on your trip, fill out the quick online form or call 337-446-8700 — you could have a quote in about a minute.
