Explore Lafayette Party Bus & Charter Bus Rentals

The 14-passenger Sprinter limo is the go-to for bachelorette parties originating in the Oil Center, wedding party pickups at the Hotel Acadiana, and small corporate groups transferring between Lafayette Regional Airport (LFT) and downtown. Expect premium leather seating, mood lighting, and a PA system in a vehicle that handles the tight turns around Johnston Street without breaking a sweat. Weekend rates run roughly $225–$350 per hour — call 337-446-8700 for your date-specific number.

When the priority is point-to-point efficiency over onboard atmosphere, a Sprinter Van Rental with Driver handles airport runs to LFT, hotel shuttles along Pinhook Road, and executive transfers between the Cajundome Convention Center and downtown hotels without the party-bus footprint. Up to 14 passengers ride in climate-controlled comfort with overhead storage for luggage. Weekday hourly rates land between $200–$275, making it one of the most cost-effective options on the board for smaller groups.

A 15-passenger party bus is the sweet spot for a birthday night along Jefferson Street's bar corridor or a smaller bachelorette group kicking off at Pamplona Tapas Bar before heading to Freetown. Color-changing LED lighting, Bluetooth sound, and perimeter seating keep the energy going from the first stop to last call. Weekend rates range from $250–$350 per hour — and for a group of 15, that math works out to roughly $17–$23 per person per hour.

Not bad.

Step up to the 18-passenger party bus when your group spills past 15 but doesn't yet need a full 20-seat vehicle — common for birthday groups bouncing between the River Ranch district and downtown Lafayette on a Friday night. Onboard sound systems and flat-panel TVs make the ride between stops part of the event. Weekend hourly rates run $275–$400, and weekday bookings start around $275 per hour.

Twenty passengers is the classic Lafayette crawl size — big enough to fill a Mulate's private dining room reservation but compact enough that a 20-passenger party bus can stage on Vermilion Street without blocking traffic. Built-in bar area, LED lighting, and premium audio make the ride itself worth planning around. Weekend rates start around $275 per hour; weekday bookings run $250–$350.

That breaks down to roughly $14–$18 per person on a weekend night for a four-hour run.

A 25-passenger party bus handles mid-size wedding shuttle loops between Maison de Tours and a hotel block on Evangeline Thruway, and it's roomy enough that the full group actually socializes instead of filing in single-file. Wrap-around seating, flat-panels, and a sound system with Bluetooth carry the energy from the ceremony to the reception and beyond. Weekend hourly rates run $275–$375; call 337-446-8700 for a date-specific price before your date fills up.

The 28-passenger party bus lands in a useful gap: large enough for a company happy hour shuttle from the Petroleum Club to a Youngsville restaurant, small enough to navigate the surface streets around the Cajundome without needing a commercial staging lot. Perimeter seating, overhead storage, and climate control make it a solid fit for corporate groups, rehearsal dinner shuttles, and larger birthday outings. Weekend rates run $275–$375 per hour.

Thirty seats is where a Lafayette Mardi Gras krewe run starts to make real sense — enough room for the whole group, plus space for costumes and bags without anyone sitting on a lap. The 30-passenger party bus also works well for UL Ragin' Cajuns tailgate shuttles from the Ambassador Caffery corridor when parking on Johnston Street is a non-starter. Weekend hourly rates run $325–$425; weekday bookings start around $300 per hour.

A 40-passenger party bus is the right call when your Festival International group, your large wedding party, or your corporate team has officially outgrown the mid-size options. With undercarriage storage on select models and full onboard entertainment, a 40-seat bus stages cleanly at the Cajundome's commercial loading area while smaller vehicles circle the lot. Weekend hourly rates range from $325–$500; weekday runs start around $300.

The per-person math at capacity comes out to roughly $8–$13 per hour — hard to beat that with rideshare.

When the reunion, the conference group, or the krewe hits 50, a 50-passenger party bus keeps absolutely everyone under one roof for the night. Large flat-panel TVs, a full-length bar area, premium audio, and wraparound seating turn the ride from the Hilton Lafayette to a Breaux Bridge crawfish dinner into an event of its own. Weekend hourly rates run $325–$500; weekday rates start at $300.

At full capacity that's roughly $6.50–$10 per person per hour — call 337-446-8700 to check your date.

The 15–35 passenger minibus is the workhorse for Lafayette corporate shuttles, school field trips to the Lafayette Science Museum (433 Jefferson St, Lafayette, LA 70501), and airport loops between LFT and the hotel row on Pinhook Road. Forward-facing reclining seats, overhead storage, and onboard climate control make longer hauls to New Orleans or Baton Rouge genuinely comfortable. Greater maneuverability than a full charter bus means tighter downtown streets aren't a problem.

Weekday hourly rates run $200–$250.

For the big moves — convention transfers at the Cajundome Convention Center (444 Cajundome Blvd, Lafayette, LA 70506), multi-day sports team travel to away games, or a full company outing heading down I-10 toward New Orleans — a 40–56 passenger charter bus is the right tool. Undercarriage bays handle luggage and equipment, onboard restrooms eliminate pit stops on the I-10 corridor, and reclining seats with WiFi and power outlets keep a 56-person group comfortable on runs of any length. Hourly rates run $200–$350 any day of the week — fill out the quick form for your exact quote.
