Party Bus Rentals in Oakland, California

Home to the Oakland Athletics and a favorite spot for big-name concerts, RingCentral Coliseum is always buzzing with activity. Sports fans and music lovers alike book party buses here year-round—whether it’s baseball season or a major tour rolling through. The venue’s large parking lots make tailgating easy, and having a bus means your whole group can pregame together without worrying about who’s driving home afterward.

For A’s games, groups often arrive early to set up grills, coolers, and lawn games right outside the bus. Concert-goers appreciate being dropped off steps from the entrance and having a comfortable place to relax after the show while traffic clears out. With seating for up to 28-40 passengers, onboard sound systems, and wraparound bench seats perfect for socializing, our party buses turn any trip to the Coliseum into an all-day celebration.

The Fox Theater is one of Oakland’s premier live music venues and a top destination for concertgoers across the Bay Area. Located in the heart of Uptown, this historic theater hosts national touring acts spanning rock, hip-hop, indie, electronic, and more. Catching a show here is a bucket-list item for many music fans—but parking in Uptown can be expensive and hard to find on busy nights. Skip the hassle by booking a party bus rental from Oakland Party Bus Company instead! We’ll drop your group off right at the curb before the show and pick you up afterward so no one has to worry about designated drivers or navigating BART late at night. And if you want to keep the party going after the encore, we can hit up nearby bars like Make Westing or Cafe Van Kleef before heading home.

The Oakland Zoo is a favorite destination for school field trips, summer camps, birthday parties, and family outings. Located in Knowland Park, the zoo features over 700 native and exotic animals, interactive exhibits, a gondola ride with panoramic views, and the California Trail expansion showcasing local wildlife. It’s a full day of fun and education that kids and adults will love. Getting there is easier than ever with a bus rental from Oakland Party Bus Company. We’ll drop your group off at the main entrance and handle all the parking logistics while you explore the zoo. Pack a picnic lunch to enjoy in the shaded meadow or let us take you to a nearby restaurant after your visit. Either way, you’ll appreciate having climate-controlled transportation waiting for you at the end of a long day.

Jack London Square is a vibrant waterfront district filled with restaurants, bars, shops, and entertainment options. It’s a popular spot for dining out, catching live music, or simply strolling along the marina. Favorite eateries include Everett & Jones Barbeque, Plank (which also has bowling and bocce), and Heinold’s First and Last Chance Saloon—a historic pub dating back to 1883. There are also regular events like farmers markets, outdoor movie nights, and wine festivals that draw big crowds. With a party bus, your group can enjoy everything Jack London Square has to offer without worrying about traffic or parking fees. We’ll get you there comfortably and on time so you can focus on having fun by the water.

Just across the bay, Oracle Park is a must-visit destination for sports fans and concertgoers alike. Home to the San Francisco Giants, this waterfront stadium offers stunning views of the Bay Bridge and plenty of excitement on game days. Arrive early to soak in the atmosphere around McCovey Cove, grab a bite at one of the many nearby restaurants, or join fellow fans for some pre-game revelry. With a party bus rental from Oakland Party Bus Company, you won’t have to worry about navigating bridge traffic or finding expensive parking near the ballpark—your driver will handle it all while you enjoy the ride.

If you’re planning a trip to Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara for a 49ers game or a major concert, booking a party bus is the easiest way to get there. This state-of-the-art venue hosts NFL games, international soccer matches, and performances by top artists like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. It’s about an hour’s drive from Oakland, but with a party bus, the journey becomes part of the experience. Bring your favorite snacks and beverages to enjoy en route, watch highlight reels on the screens, and get hyped up with your crew before arriving at the stadium. After the event, you’ll appreciate having a comfortable seat to relax in while we take care of the long ride home.

Located in Mountain View, the Shoreline Amphitheatre is a popular destination for outdoor concerts and music festivals during the summer months. With a capacity of over 22,000, it regularly hosts major touring acts and multi-day events like the Vans Warped Tour or Country Megaticket. The venue’s location in the South Bay makes it accessible from Oakland, but traffic and parking can be challenging on show nights.

You can pregame on board, store coolers and chairs in the luggage area, and have a designated driver waiting to take you home after the encore.

The cost to rent a party bus in Oakland typically ranges from $170 to $400+ per hour on weekdays, $190 to $500+ per hour on weekends, $1,800 to $3,800+ per day, and $6.00 – $9.95 per mile depending on the size of the vehicle, length of trip, and exact itinerary. Smaller 15- 20 passenger party buses are usually on the lower end of the price spectrum, while larger 30-50+ passenger vehicles will be on the higher end. For example, a 20-passenger party bus doing a 6-hour roundtrip from Oakland to downtown San Francisco will generally cost $1,200-$2,200 total.

Several factors can impact the final price of your party bus rental in Oakland. The biggest variables are the size of the vehicle (larger buses cost more), the total duration of the trip (hourly rates vs. flat daily rates), and the distance traveled (mileage charges may apply for long-distance runs). Additional stops, layover time, bridge tolls (Bay Bridge, Golden Gate, San Mateo), and late-night returns can also affect pricing. Special events like weddings, proms, and major concerts/festivals may have premium rates due to high demand. Exact pickup/drop-off locations matter too—downtown San Francisco or Levi’s Stadium will be priced differently than a local East Bay route. Always provide your full itinerary upfront for the most accurate quote.

It’s always best to book your Oakland party bus rental as early as possible—ideally 4 to 6 weeks in advance—to ensure the best selection and pricing. Spring and summer are peak seasons due to wedding, prom, and graduation schedules, so larger vehicles often sell out quickly during these months. If your event falls on a holiday weekend or coincides with a major concert, festival, or sporting event, availability will be even tighter. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have open inventory, but options may be limited and rates could be higher. Once you know your date and headcount, securing a reservation right away is the smartest move.

Yes, we require a deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. The deposit amount will vary depending on the size of the vehicle and length of the trip, but it is typically 20-30% of the total rental cost. The remaining balance is due 7 days before the date of service. We accept all major credit cards, Zelle, Venmo, ACH, and business checks. Reservations are not considered confirmed until the deposit has been received and the contract has been signed. Final payment must be made in full prior to dispatching the vehicle—no exceptions.

Your quote includes the base rental rate for the vehicle, fuel, mileage, and driver labor for the duration of the contract. Additional expenses such as bridge tolls (e.g., $7 for Bay Bridge, $8 for Golden Gate), parking fees, and cleaning/damage deposits are not included and will be billed separately if incurred. For trips to venues like Chase Center, Oracle Park, or Levi’s Stadium, please note that charter bus parking passes must be purchased in advance and can range from $120 to $300+ depending on the event. Any hotel accommodations or per diem required for out-of-town trips are the responsibility of the client. Please review your contract carefully for a full breakdown of what is and isn’t covered.
