A few of the companies we’ve worked with
World-Class Performances at The Buddy Holly Hall
Since opening its doors, The Buddy Holly Hall of Performing Arts and Sciences has transformed the cultural landscape of West Texas. Located at 1300 Mac Davis Ln, Lubbock, TX 79401, this state-of-the-art venue is the crown jewel of downtown. It hosts everything from Broadway touring productions and the Lubbock Symphony Orchestra to Ballet Lubbock and headlining pop and rock concerts. The architecture alone is worth the trip, but the acoustics in the Helen DeVitt Jones Theater are truly world-class. For groups attending a gala, a ballet performance, or a major concert here, arriving in style is non-negotiable.
When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Lubbock, you avoid the hassle of navigating downtown construction or paying for premium parking in the dedicated garage. Your driver can drop your group off right at the grand entrance, allowing you to walk straight into the breathtaking lobby without breaking a sweat. Whether you are a senior citizen group enjoying a matinee or a corporate team attending a black-tie evening event, our buses offer the perfect blend of luxury and convenience. You can even request a bus with leather seats and ample storage for formal wear or musical instruments if you are a performing group yourselves. Call us at 325-307-5576 to arrange a seamless shuttle service for your next night out at the Hall.
Catch Major Acts at United Supermarkets Arena
For the biggest events in town, all roads lead to the United Supermarkets Arena. Located on the Texas Tech University campus at 1701 Indiana Ave, Lubbock, TX 79409, this 15,000-seat multi-purpose arena is the home of the Red Raiders basketball and volleyball teams, but it also serves as the primary stop for major touring artists. From country megastars like George Strait to rock legends and pop icons, the "USA" (as locals call it) hosts the shows that sell out in minutes. However, anyone who has attended a sold-out event here knows that traffic on the Marsha Sharp Freeway and Indiana Avenue can be gridlock central before and after a show.
Don't let traffic dampen your group's excitement. By renting a private charter bus, you keep your entire group together—no one gets lost finding the parking lot, and no one has to walk a mile in the West Texas wind to get to the gate. Our buses have plenty of undercarriage storage, meaning you can bring along banners, fan gear, or even tailgating supplies if you are heading to a game. Inside, your group can hype themselves up by playing music over the PA system or watching videos of the performing artist on flat-screen TVs. After the encore, your driver will be waiting at a designated pickup spot to whisk you away comfortably, letting you skip the long lines of cars trying to exit the campus.
The Lubbock Sound at The Blue Light Live
You can't talk about Lubbock entertainment without mentioning the specific, gritty, and soulful music scene that originated here. The Blue Light Live, located in the historic Depot District at 1806 Buddy Holly Ave, Lubbock, TX 79401, is arguably the most important venue for up-and-coming Texas Country and Red Dirt artists. This isn't a stadium; it's an intimate, authentic experience where songwriters cut their teeth. It is the perfect destination for bachelor parties, 21st birthday celebrations, or music history buffs who want to see where the magic happens.
Because The Blue Light is located in the heart of the nightlife district, parking is scarce and often involves paid lots or street parking blocks away. Furthermore, if your group plans to enjoy the bar's offerings, you need a comfortable way home. Charter Bus Rental Company Lubbock provides the ultimate designated driver solution. Rent a sleek minibus or a party bus for your night out in the Depot District. Your group can hop between The Blue Light, Cactus Theater, and local breweries without ever worrying about rideshares or sobriety tests. We prioritize your comfort so you can prioritize having a great time. Let us handle the driving while you enjoy the legendary "Lubbock Sound" with your friends.
Nostalgia and History at the Cactus Theater
Just down the street from The Blue Light stands a beacon of neon nostalgia: the Cactus Theater. Located at 1812 Buddy Holly Ave, Lubbock, TX 79401, this historic venue began as a movie theater in the 1930s and has been beautifully restored into a performance hall. It specializes in tribute concerts, classic movie screenings, and local musical showcases. It offers a more seated, relaxed environment compared to the standing-room-only clubs nearby, making it an excellent destination for family reunions, church groups, or company appreciation nights.
Organizing a trip to the Cactus Theater is effortless with Charter Bus Rental Company Lubbock. We can coordinate a pickup from your hotel, office, or church and provide door-to-door service to the theater's marquee entrance. If you are planning a holiday outing to see their famous Christmas productions, a charter bus keeps everyone warm and cozy together. Our buses come equipped with climate control to combat the chilly panhandle winter nights. Plus, the high ceilings and large windows of our motorcoaches allow your group to take in the lights of the Depot District as you arrive. Make your evening of nostalgia complete with a stress-free ride that caters to passengers of all ages and mobility levels.
Outdoor Entertainment at Moonlight Musicals Amphitheatre
When the West Texas weather cooperates, there is no better place to be than the Moonlight Musicals Amphitheatre. Located within Mackenzie Park at 413 E Broadway, Lubbock, TX 79403, this outdoor venue produces high-quality musical theater productions under the stars during the summer and fall months. From "Oklahoma!" to "The Wizard of Oz," these productions are massive, community-centered events that are perfect for large groups, school field trips , and senior living community outings.
Because the amphitheater is located inside a large park, navigating to the specific entrance can be confusing for first-time visitors in separate cars. A charter bus rental eliminates this confusion. We can transport your entire group directly to the gate, ensuring that everyone arrives at the same time to find seats together. If you are bringing a school group or a youth choir to see a show, our buses offer the accountability you need. Teachers and chaperones can easily keep track of students, and the onboard DVD players can keep kids entertained with the movie version of the musical you are about to see during the drive over. Enjoy the fresh air and the drama on stage while we handle the logistics of the commute.
Annual Festivals: 4th on Broadway and More
Lubbock knows how to throw a party, and the city's annual festivals are massive draws for visitors from New Mexico, Oklahoma, and across Texas. The largest free festival in Texas, "4th on Broadway," takes over the streets every Independence Day with parades, street concerts, and fireworks. In the fall, the National Cowboy Symposium & Celebration attracts history enthusiasts, while the Pumpkin Trail at the Lubbock Memorial Arboretum is a Halloween staple. These events attract tens of thousands of people, turning parking into a significant challenge.
Charter Bus Rental Company Lubbock is your festival transportation partner. Whether you are a marching band performing in the 4th of July parade or a large family attending the Pumpkin Trail, a private bus rental is the smartest way to travel. We can arrange drop-off points near the festival grounds that avoid the worst of the traffic congestion. For multi-day festivals, we can provide shuttle services between your hotel and the event site, running on a schedule that you define. Don't waste hours circling for a parking spot when you could be enjoying the festivities. Call 325-307-5576 to secure your festival transportation well in advance, as these peak times book up quickly!
Grit and Guitars at Cook’s Garage
For a venue that is uniquely Lubbock, look no further than Cook’s Garage. Located at 11002 US-87, Lubbock, TX 79423, this venue is part concert hall, part classic car museum, and part restaurant. It hosts major country and rock acts in an atmosphere that celebrates automotive history and West Texas culture. It is located a bit further out from the city center, making it a destination that requires a bit of a drive. This venue is particularly popular for large groups of friends, car clubs, and corporate parties looking for a relaxed, fun atmosphere.
Driving down Highway 87 after a night of loud music and drinks isn't ideal. A charter bus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company Lubbock ensures that your group gets to Cook’s Garage safely and returns home without incident. Drivers are familiar with the highway routes and the venue's layout. We can organize a pick-up from a central location in town, drive your group to the show, and be waiting the moment the final chord is struck. With onboard restrooms available on our larger coaches, the trip to the outskirts of town is comfortable for everyone. Enjoy the neon signs, the vintage cars, and the live music, and leave the driving to us.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lubbock Concert Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus in Lubbock?
Charter bus pricing varies based on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of your trip, the time of year, and the distance traveled. Local trips are often billed by the hour with a minimum rental time, while multi-day or long-distance trips are usually billed by the day or mile. To get the most accurate price for your specific event, we recommend calling our 24/7 team at 325-307-5576 or using our online quote tool for an instant estimate tailored to your itinerary.
Can we drink alcohol on the bus?
In most cases, yes! Alcohol is permitted on our charter buses and party buses , provided that all passengers are of legal drinking age (21+). However, we usually require a refundable damage deposit if alcohol is present. Please let your reservation specialist know in advance if you plan to bring beverages on board so we can ensure you are matched with a bus that allows it. Remember, for the safety of our drivers and passengers, glass bottles are often discouraged in favor of cans or plastic.
How far in advance should I book my bus for a concert?
Lubbock is a busy hub for events, especially during the Texas Tech athletic season and major holidays. We strongly recommend booking your charter bus as soon as you have your date and venue confirmed. Ideally, you should aim to book at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing. If you are planning a trip during a major event like graduation or a big rivalry game, booking 6 to 9 months out is advisable. However, we can often accommodate last-minute requests, so don't hesitate to call us!

Most full-size charter buses come standard with reclining seats, climate control, onboard restrooms, and plenty of luggage storage.
