School dance party bus reviews
- Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
John was very prompt and easy to communicate with. He messaged to confirm a change in plans for a homecoming group which was very thoughtful and appreciated as a parent. Highly recommend.
Sarah Campaigne - Rated 5 out of 5. Google review
The bus was a perfect fit for prom. The theme of the bus was neon so the kids did neon themed clothes after prom which made it fun. Plenty of room for the kids and it was nice to know they could have a fun night doing something different between the dance and the end of the night. The driver was great. Zero complaints from the kids!! The bus also held a lot of people which was nice for prom so that nobody was left out. It helped make it a more inclusive night. We couldn’t find a bus with such a fun theme that held this many people. Big plus! The picture is just the girls. The kids said with the all the guys and girls combined they didn’t feel cramped.

Every booking comes with a trip dashboard
For the parent who books, it answers the two questions that matter on prom night: where is the bus, and who is driving.
Follow the night from your phone
- Live bus map. Watch your bus on a live map from the moment your driver taps On the way until drop-off.
- Your driver. Your driver’s name and number in your dashboard, with Call and Text buttons, as soon as your driver is assigned.
- Plan your stops. Add your stops, put them in order and leave a note for the driver on each one. Change them until the trip starts.
- RSVPs and headcount. See who is coming, who can’t make it and how many seats are left.
How a prom night usually runs
Prom in Minnesota starts before the dance does. Grand march is its own event: families in the bleachers, couples announced one at a time, cameras everywhere, and the group has to arrive together and on time for it. A party bus makes that simple: one pickup, everyone in the same place, nobody circling for parking in dress shoes.
After grand march comes dinner, photos, the dance, and whatever the school has planned afterward. The bus stays with the group for all of it, with a CDL driver at the wheel.
- Early pickupPickup at a parent’s house, with time for photos. Grand march sets the clock, and it is earlier than most groups expect. We work the pickup time backward from it.
- Grand marchDrop-off at the door, so nobody crosses a parking lot in heels before being announced.
- Photos and dinnerThe bus stays with you between the two.
- The danceYour bus and CDL driver stay with the group for your whole trip.
- After-promWhatever your school runs, or straight home. A safe ride for each student, to their own door.

Prom party bus rules
We want the group to have the best experience possible. These are the rules we ask groups and parents to follow so everything goes smoothly.
Reservation
A parent or legal guardian makes the reservation online. We do not accept a reservation from a student, an older sibling or a friend. We make follow-up phone calls with the parents to make sure all the information is accurate.
Refreshments
Water, pop, Gatorade and the like are welcome, and a parent is responsible for them. Parents load the bus with any refreshments for the students. All bottles and cans must be unopened. Students may not bring refreshments on or off the bus.
Alcohol
We do not allow any alcohol on board, and we actively monitor the students.
On pickup
A parent must be available at pickup. We ask that they help the students get ready.
During the trip
A parent or parents must be available on call if needed.
On drop-off
A parent should be present at drop-off to help the students unload.
Prom party bus FAQs
Does a parent have to book the prom bus?
Yes. We require a parent or legal guardian to make the reservation for school dance rentals.
How much does a prom party bus cost?
Dance dates are one flat price per bus: $1,000 to $3,000, depending on the size. A full size bus that seats 35 is $1,800, about $51 a student. Your instant quote adds the Travel fee for your pickup, and the 20% driver tip is separate.
Is alcohol allowed on a prom rental?
No. Zero alcohol is allowed on school dance rentals, and our drivers actively monitor the bus for the whole trip.
How do parents know where the bus is?
The parent who books gets a trip dashboard. Watch your bus on a live map from the moment your driver taps On the way until drop-off. Your driver’s name and number in your dashboard, with Call and Text buttons, as soon as your driver is assigned. You also set the stops, so you know where the bus is going and when.
How many students fit on one bus?
Our buses seat 15 to 40, so one bus can carry the whole group. Most groups pick a full size 35-seater.
When should we book for prom?
April and May Saturdays book up first. 4 to 6 weeks ahead is safe, earlier for the most popular buses.
Can the bus get us to grand march on time?
Yes, and it is the first thing we plan around. Grand march usually starts in the late afternoon or early evening, so we build the pickup time backward from it and leave room for photos. Prom pickups are earlier than any other dance for exactly this reason.
Does the bus stay with us between dinner, the dance and after-prom?
Yes. The bus and the driver are yours for the hours you book, so the group is not waiting on rides between stops and nobody has to leave early to move a car.
Can we decorate the bus for prom?
Yes. Decorations are welcome. The one rule is nothing that gets ground into the floor or upholstery, so no glitter, confetti, silly string or paint.
Is the driver tip part of the bus rate?
No. The 20% driver tip is required and separate from the bus. Pay it by card, or in cash or Venmo to your driver at pickup.
Prom season in the Twin Cities
Prom season runs late April through May, and those Saturdays are the first dates on our calendar to fill every year. Book 4 to 6 weeks ahead to get your first-choice bus.
