Choosing the Best Party Bus for Your Birthday Celebration


Birthdays allow you to gather with your closest friends and family, have fun, and create lasting memories. Instead of having a party at home, consider moving your celebration on the road with a party bus. We have well-maintained party buses at Lonestar, equipped with amenities to make your event more exciting. Here are tips for choosing the best party bus for your birthday:

Determine Your Budget

The first step is determining how much you can spend on the party bus rental. Several factors go into the cost of renting party buses, such as the size of the bus, the duration you'll be using it, and any additional amenities you may need. A more luxurious bus may also cost more than a basic one. Once you know your budget, search for options that fit your price range. Consider having a budget with wiggle room to make it work if you find a better bus with a slightly higher price. 

Know How Many People Will Attend 

Your chosen party bus size should be based on the number of people attending your event. You don't want to have everyone squished inside a smaller bus to save money, and you also don't want to waste money by renting a larger bus if only a few people will attend. Make a list of all the guests and decide on a bus size from there. Our party buses at Lonestar accommodate as many as 50 people, so you'll have plenty of room for your friends and family. If you're unsure about the number of attendees, it's best to be cautious and rent a slightly bigger bus. 

Consider the Amenities

When choosing a party bus, you want one with all the features to make your event exciting and memorable. Our party buses have excellent amenities to make your birthday a hit. The limo-style seating is comfortable and allows guests to converse easily throughout the party. The Bluetooth sound system will enable you to play your favorite tunes while dancing poles let you have fun as you show your moves. You can also enjoy multiple party lights, tinted windows for privacy, an open dance floor design, and a wet bar area. These features create an entertaining atmosphere for your birthday party.

Can You Drink on a Party Bus?


Yes, drinking on a party bus is allowed. Booking party buses is an affordable way to get around with co-workers or friends and have a great time. A party bus allows every person on board to have fun without having to choose a designated driver.

Party Bus Companies Drinking Regulations

The federal law states that individuals should not have open alcohol containers when in a motor vehicle. Luckily, that law does not apply to professional vehicles like limos, charter buses, and minibusses. The driver on a party bus has their separate compartment and cannot enter the main cabin of the bus. 

The party bus company must go through proper channels to secure the necessary permit to sell or provide alcohol to those on board legally. Most companies offer empty drink vessels and ice water in a cooler on their trips.

They hold occupants accountable for their behavior. The driver's job is to ensure everyone is safe. So, if someone starts acting unruly, the driver will have them vacate the bus or drop them off at a safe point.

Party bus companies restrict individuals under 21 years from boarding their vehicles. And if they do, they have some information in their contract that shows that they don't allow minors to consume alcohol.
