Does Charterbuscolumbus.com own the concert buses in Columbus?

No, and that’s the whole point! Charterbuscolumbus.com is a bus rental comparison website, not a local bus company, so you’re never stuck with whatever one single fleet has left in its lot on a busy Saturday night. You compare options from a massive Ohio network of independent operators, book online through a national platform, and ride with a driver!

What amenities are included on a concert party bus or charter bus?

It depends on the vehicle you choose, and you’ll see exact interior photos and features before you book! Party buses for 15 to 50 passengers typically feature wraparound leather seating, color-changing LED party lights, Bluetooth sound systems, flat-screen TVs, and onboard bar areas to start the pre-game early. If you book a 15- to 35-passenger minibus or a 56-passenger charter bus for a festival or band tour, you can get plush reclining seats, ice-cold A/C, WiFi, power outlets to keep phones charged for concert videos, an onboard restroom, and huge luggage bays!

Where can our charter bus drop off and park at Columbus concert venues?

Every Columbus venue has specific rules for oversized vehicles, and your driver will handle all the navigation! At Nationwide Arena and KEMBA Live! in the Arena District, buses typically unload along Nationwide Boulevard or Neil Avenue before relocating to surface lots near Huntington Park or McConnell Garage oversized spaces. For shows at the Schottenstein Center, drivers use the designated drop-off loop off Borror Drive and park in the gray lots west of Fred Taylor Drive. After you book, our confirmation department calls you to verify every pickup and drop-off spot!
