How much does it cost to rent a party bus?
Most Twin Cities groups pay $350 to $1,050 for the bus. A 15-seat mini bus for one hour, Sunday to Thursday, sits at the low end. A 35-seat VIP bus for 5 hours on a Saturday sits at the top.
A Saturday night of 4 hours is $650 to $950, depending on the size. Split across a full bus, that is about $19 to $43 a person, and each guest can pay their own share from your invite link.
Those figures are the bus rate. Every trip adds a Travel fee for your pickup, and a 20% driver tip is required.
Save $50. Flexible on which bus you ride? Mini: the Any Mini deal, Medium VIP: the Any Medium VIP deal, Full Size: the Any Full Size deal and VIP: the Any VIP deal each have an Any-bus option: we pick the bus in that size, and $50 comes off your total.

What groups say about our party buses
- Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
Rent My Party Bus exceeded all expectations! We rented a fully decked-out bus (Goldilocks) for a birthday celebration around the Twin Cities, and everything was seamless from the first inquiry to drop-off. A huge shoutout to our driver, Alyssa, who was absolutely fabulous. We will definitely use them again for our next event. Highly recommend!

We had a great time on the 24k gold bus with our driver Jeremy! We know that our event will be talked about for years to come. If you want to host a stand out event, this is the way to go!

Allison Bailey - Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
Rent My Party Bus always the way to go! Been using the Black Onyx for 4+ years. They have kept this bus in top notch order - all lights, seats, and condition of the bus is like-new everytime. The driver Antonio is by far our favorite driver! He made our entire group feel comfortable and sets the vibe right off the start with his opening announcements! Will for sure rent again!

David Mills - Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
I would highly recommend Rent My Party Bus for any event! I had an event for NYE and everything went perfectly. We had rented the Black Phantom which was a full size bus and it was very nice and we had plenty of room for 27 of us! Communication with the company and bus driver was effective and timely. Our bus driver was Alyssa and she was AMAZING and very accommodating!

We had a blast renting the unicorn party bus for my friend's 40th birthday! The driver was nice and on time. We couldn't be happier with the service and will rent again in the future.

Cherish Ende - Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
We had so much fun! A great company to work with. They were very communicative leading up to the event and straight forward with pricing. The pink diamond bus was the perfect size for up to 20 people! The bus came on time and the driver was very friendly.

Party bus cost and booking FAQ
How much does it cost to rent a party bus in Minneapolis?
Most groups pay between $350 and $1,050 for the bus, depending on the bus, the day and how many hours you book. A Saturday night of 4 hours on a mini party bus for 15 is $650, about $43 each with a full bus. Every bus’s rates are posted on this page. Your instant quote adds the Travel fee for your pickup, and a 20% driver tip is required.
How much is a party bus per person?
Split across a full bus, a Saturday of 4 hours is about $43 on a Mini (15 riders), $33 on the Medium (20 riders), $30 on a Medium VIP (25 riders), $20 on a Full Size (35 riders), $19 on the Full Size Luxury (40 riders) and $27 on a VIP (35 riders). That is the bus rate only. Each guest can pay their own share by card from your invite link.
Why do some medium buses cost more than full size buses?
Price follows size and newness. The Unicorn and The Black Stallion are our newest line of medium buses, the Medium VIP size, so they run above our classic full size buses: a Saturday of 4 hours is $750 on a Medium VIP bus and $700 on a Full Size bus. If you want the most space per dollar, the classic full size buses are the sweet spot.
What is the cheapest way to rent a party bus?
Book Sunday to Thursday. Those are the lowest rates of the week: mini party buses start at $350 for one hour, and you have the widest choice of buses. If you are flexible on which bus you ride, an Any-bus option takes $50 off your total. Short one-way and two-way trips are posted with each size on this page.
How does the $50 Any-bus deal work?
If you are flexible on which bus you ride, pick an Any-bus option at checkout: Any Mini Size Party Bus, Any Medium VIP Party Bus, Any Full Size Party Bus or Any VIP Party Bus. Same seats, same rates. We put your group on the bus of that size that fits the schedule best, and $50 comes off your total.
How does the driver tip work?
A 20% driver tip is required on every rental. It is paid separately from the bus: pay it by card when you book, or in cash or Venmo to your driver at pickup. Extra tips for a driver who goes above and beyond are appreciated but never expected.
