A few of the companies we’ve worked with
NBA Action at Golden 1 Center
There is no heartbeat in the city quite like the one found at the Golden 1 Center (500 David J Stern Walk, Sacramento, CA 95814) when the Sacramento Kings are playing. Located in the heart of the Downtown Commons (DOCO), this state-of-the-art arena draws thousands of fans for every home game. However, downtown parking can be scarce, expensive, and stressful to navigate, especially during weekday matchups when commuter traffic on J Street and L Street is at its peak. When you rent a charter bus with Charter Bus Sacramento, you skip the parking garage nightmare entirely.
The drivers are well versed in navigating the downtown grid. We can drop your group off within walking distance of the arena entrance, allowing you time to grab a pre-game meal at Sauced BBQ & Spirits or Punch Bowl Social before tip-off. For fan groups, a private bus means the pre-game party starts the moment you board. You can utilize the onboard PA system to get the chants started, or use the WiFi to check fantasy stats before the game. For corporate groups hosting clients in a luxury suite, a sleek minibus shuttle provides a VIP experience from your office door to the arena door. After the final buzzer (and hopefully a lighting of the beam!), your driver will be waiting at a designated pickup location to whisk you away from the post-game traffic jams.
Minor League Baseball at Sutter Health Park
Just across the iconic Tower Bridge lies West Sacramento, home to the Sacramento River Cats, the Triple-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. Sutter Health Park (400 Ballpark Dr, West Sacramento, CA 95691) offers one of the most family-friendly and scenic sports experiences in the region. Whether you are organizing a Little League appreciation night, a company picnic on the lawn, or a summer outing for a senior community, a charter bus rental is the most efficient way to get to the ballpark.
Crossing the bridge during rush hour can be tricky, but your driver handles the navigation of Business 80 and the I-5 interchanges so you don't have to. We offer plenty of storage space in our full-size charter buses for picnic blankets, lawn chairs, and coolers if you plan on enjoying the grass seating areas. Plus, traveling by bus keeps your group together. Instead of worrying about parents getting separated in traffic or finding parking spots near the Ziggurat building, everyone arrives at the gates simultaneously. Enjoy the Friday night fireworks or a Sunday day game without the stress of driving home in the heat—our air-conditioned cabins ensure a cool, relaxing ride back to your starting point.
College Sports: Cheering on the Hornets and Aggies
Sacramento is a college sports town through and through. Whether you are supporting the Sacramento State Hornets or making the short trip across the Yolo Causeway to cheer on the UC Davis Aggies, Charter Bus Sacramento provides reliable transportation for alumni associations, student organizations, and visiting teams.
For football games at Hornet Stadium (6000 J St, Sacramento, CA 95819), parking on campus can be a challenge on game days. A private shuttle bus allows your alumni group to tailgate effectively without needing multiple parking passes. We can stow your tents, grills, and coolers in the luggage bays, leaving the cabin clutter-free. If you are heading to Davis to see a basketball game at the University Credit Union Center (1 Shields Ave, Davis, CA 95616), let us handle the drive on I-80. We also specialize in transporting athletic teams to these universities for tournaments and meets. Our 56-passenger motorcoaches offer ample legroom for tall athletes to stretch out, and individual reading lights and power outlets allow student-athletes to study or relax before the competition. From track and field meets to rowing competitions at Lake Natoma, we cover it all.
Soccer Fandom with Republic FC at Heart Health Park
Soccer culture is alive and well in the capital city thanks to Sacramento Republic FC. Their matches at Heart Health Park (1600 Exposition Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95815), located within the Cal Expo grounds, are known for their high energy and passionate supporter groups. If you are part of the Tower Bridge Battalion or just a group of friends wanting to catch a match, booking a party bus or minibus is the ultimate way to attend.
Since the stadium is located at Cal Expo, navigating the entrance gates during the State Fair or other concurrent events can be confusing. The drivers are familiar with the Cal Expo layout and can drop your group near the stadium entrance. This is particularly useful for youth soccer clubs attending matches together. A charter bus ensures that every player, coach, and parent arrives together, minimizing the risk of anyone getting lost in the sprawling fairgrounds parking lots. After the match, your group can celebrate the victory in a climate-controlled bus, heading to a post-game dinner at nearby Arden Fair area restaurants without splitting the check across ten different cars.
Running the California International Marathon (CIM)
The California International Marathon is one of the premier running events in the country, attracting thousands of athletes to the region every December. The course runs from Folsom Dam to the State Capitol, making logistics a significant challenge for running clubs and large groups of participants. Charter Bus Sacramento specializes in point-to-point transportation for marathon runners and spectators.
We can arrange to pick up your running club from a hotel in Downtown Sacramento or Natomas and transport you to the start line near Folsom Dam (7794 Folsom Dam Rd, Folsom, CA 95630) early in the morning. A private charter bus offers a warm, comfortable place to wait and mentally prepare before the race begins—a luxury that standard school bus shuttles often cannot provide. Once the race starts, the bus can transport spectators to various cheer zones along Fair Oaks Boulevard and J Street before meeting the runners at the finish line near the California State Capitol (1315 10th St, Sacramento, CA 95814). With plenty of undercarriage storage for gear bags and post-race recovery supplies, we make the CIM experience seamless for athletes.
Golf Outings in the Capital City
Sacramento isn't just about spectator sports; it is a golfer's paradise with access to some of Northern California's best courses. If you are organizing a corporate golf retreat, a charity tournament, or a bachelor party weekend, a charter bus rental is essential for moving your group and their clubs safely.
We frequently service trips to the historic Haggin Oaks Golf Complex (3645 Fulton Ave, Sacramento, CA 95821), home to the Alister MacKenzie course. Transporting 20 sets of golf clubs in personal vehicles is a logistical headache; transporting them in the spacious luggage bays of a minibus or charter bus is effortless. We can also take your group to Ancil Hoffman Golf Course in Carmichael or Teal Bend near the airport. After 18 holes, enjoy the "19th hole" on the bus. You can relax with your colleagues or friends in air-conditioned comfort as your driver takes you to a steakhouse dinner in Midtown or back to your hotel. No need to worry about designated drivers after a day on the links.
Sports Bar Hopping and Watch Parties
Sometimes the best seat in the house isn't in the stadium—it's at a local sports bar with great food and all your friends. Sacramento has a thriving sports bar scene, particularly in the Midtown and K Street corridors. If the Kings are in the playoffs or it is Super Bowl Sunday, rent a private minibus or party bus to create your own pub crawl experience.
Start your evening at Tom's Watch Bar (414 K St #180, Sacramento, CA 95814) in DOCO for a massive screen experience, then let your driver shuttle you to Public House Downtown (1132 16th St, Sacramento, CA 95814) or Henry's Lounge. With a driver from Charter Bus Sacramento, you ensure that everyone in your party gets home safely at the end of the night. No rideshare surge pricing, no waiting on curbs, and zero worries about DUIs. It is the responsible and fun way to enjoy big sporting events when you can't be there in person.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sacramento Sports Transportation
How much storage space is available for tailgating gear?
Our full-size 56-passenger charter buses come equipped with massive undercarriage luggage bays that are perfect for transporting coolers, folding chairs, tents, grills, and cornhole boards. If you are renting a minibus (18-25 passengers), storage space is more limited, usually restricted to overhead bins or a small rear compartment. If you plan on bringing a heavy tailgating setup, be sure to let our team know so we can recommend the correct bus size to accommodate all your gear comfortably.
Where does the bus park at Golden 1 Center?
For events at the Golden 1 Center, buses drop off passengers at designated zones near 7th and L Streets or Capitol Mall, depending on the specific event protocols and road closures. After drop-off, the bus will move to an off-site parking location (often at Cal Expo or designated street parking areas for commercial vehicles) and return for pickup after the game. Your driver will coordinate with your group leader via cell phone to ensure a smooth pickup once the game ends, saving you from navigating the post-game gridlock.
How far in advance should we book for playoff games or championships?
Sacramento is a passionate sports city, and when the Kings make the playoffs or a major tournament comes to town, demand for buses skyrockets. We recommend booking your charter bus as soon as the schedule is announced. For major events like the California International Marathon or NCAA tournaments hosted in Sacramento, booking 3 to 6 months in advance is advisable to ensure vehicle availability. However, we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible.
Do you provide transportation for out-of-town teams visiting Sacramento?
Absolutely. We frequently work with visiting collegiate and professional teams flying into Sacramento International Airport (SMF). We can provide a seamless airport transfer to your hotel, followed by shuttles to practice facilities, the stadium, and local restaurants throughout your stay. The drivers know the best routes to avoid traffic on I-5 and Hwy 50, ensuring your team stays on schedule and focused on the competition. Call us at 350-217-6400 to set up a multi-day transportation package for your team.
