Deciding what to hire is part of the fun. Our guide to Types of party buses helps you pick the right size and style so everyone travels together and the atmosphere never drops.
From 12–16 seater limo buses that feel intimate and lively, up to 20–24 seat luxury party coaches for big groups, there’s a vehicle to suit every guest list. If you want everyone to travel together and keep the party vibe between venues, a party bus is often the best choice.

| Vehicle type | Capacity | Typical features |
|---|---|---|
| Mini limo bus | 12–16 | Bar, sound system, mood lighting |
| Large party coach | 20–24 | Dance area, premium sound, seating zones |
| Stretch limousine / Hummer | 8–12 | Luxurious seating, intimate layout |
| Minibus / MPV | 8–16 | Practical return journeys, economical |
When should you pick a party bus rather than a stretch limo or a minibus? If keeping the group together and maintaining the party atmosphere en route is important, a party bus wins every time. Compare that to stretch limousines which are great for smaller groups wanting a plush, photo-friendly arrival, or minibuses and MPVs which are better value for simple transfers.
Choose a party bus when you want the celebration to continue between stops — arriving at a gig, making a theatrical entrance at a wedding venue, or ferrying a hen or stag party between city-centre bars. If cost is a concern, consider a party bus for the outward leg and a minibus for the return — that’s a tip that often saves money without losing the experience.
What events suit a party bus? Plenty. Birthdays, proms, hen and stag nights, weddings, concerts and festivals all work brilliantly. You can tailor hire packages for one-way trips, multi-stop pub crawls across Gloucester, or full-day itineraries across Gloucestershire — whatever fits your plans.
We regularly move groups around Gloucester city centre, Gloucester Quays, Gloucester Cathedral and Kingsholm Stadium, and on to nearby highlights such as Cheltenham Racecourse and the festivals in the Cotswolds. Whether you’re meeting at a hotel by the docks or creating a bespoke route around countryside venues, our operators know the best access points and parking to keep your evening running smoothly.
Want to keep costs sensible without losing atmosphere? Try midweek bookings or off-peak times for lower rates, split the fare across passengers, or combine a smaller number of vehicles rather than one oversized coach. Midweek promotions and early bookings often secure better prices — it’s surprising how flexible operators can be if you ask.
Arrive with a clear plan: pick agreed pick-up points, estimate timings with buffer for traffic, and let the driver know any multi-stop order. If you’re heading to a venue like a hotel or stadium, liaise with them in advance for drop-off permissions — it saves time on the night.
I still laugh about a recent stag party that started at Gloucester Quays. The bus arrived with lights on and a playlist cued to the groom’s favourite tunes. We wound through the city, stopping at a couple of favourite pubs and ending up at a festival outside Cheltenham — everyone agreed the night felt like one long, uninterrupted celebration. That’s the magic of hiring a party bus: the journey becomes part of the memory.
If you’re thinking about hiring for an upcoming event, start by choosing the capacity and features you want, then compare operators on availability and price. If you’d like help, Party Bus Hire can match you with verified chauffeurs and vehicles across Gloucester and Gloucestershire — making the booking straightforward and secure.
We combine years of experience with local knowledge to recommend vehicles, confirm driver credentials and ensure smooth communication. When you book through our platform you’re using a service that values safety and service as much as celebration.
