Party Bus Rentals in Bloomington

Bloomingtonmncharterbusservices.com is an advertising and quote comparison website that makes it easy to find and compare party bus rentals in Bloomington, Minnesota. It is not a local transportation company or motor carrier—it does not own any vehicles and does not set prices.

Mall of America directs buses and oversized vehicles to the North Entrance in the North Lot, accessible from American Boulevard. The Transit Center—located at approximately 2131 Lindau Lane, Bloomington, MN 55425—is a dedicated facility for buses, shuttles, and transit vehicles. Drop-off for large vehicles is at the North Entrance off American Boulevard, near the North Lot.

Standard parking ramps at MOA are not suitable for oversized party buses, so plan your approach via 24th Ave S and follow the Transit Center signage. Rideshare pickup uses the same East entrance corridor but in a separate lane. Charter buses park only in the North Lot next to IKEA, and overnight parking is not allowed there.

Confirm current bus staging details on the Mall of America parking and vehicle rules before your visit.

The Minneapolis Convention Center (1301 2nd Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55403) has a designated commercial vehicle loading zone on 2nd Avenue South, directly in front of the main entrance at 13th Street—that is where your party bus drops your group. After drop-off, the bus stages off-site; the MCC does not have dedicated on-site bus parking. Common staging areas nearby include Grant Street between 1st Ave S and Nicollet Mall and surface lots along 1st Avenue South.

For major conventions and events, the MCC recommends contacting their team directly to confirm bus logistics for your specific event date. Check current access details on the Minneapolis Convention Center directions and parking page before your visit.

Mystic Lake Amphitheater is about 25 to 35 minutes southwest of Bloomington via US-169 South. The casino and amphitheater property is large and self-contained, with an expansive surface parking area. Buses and large group vehicles are directed to the main casino entrance loop on Mystic Lake Blvd NW for drop-off, then to outer surface lots on the northeast side of the property for staging while your group is inside.

Because bus logistics at Mystic Lake can vary by event and concert night, call the casino directly at (952) 445-9000 before your visit to confirm the current bus staging assignment for your show. For every amphitheater show, Mystic Lake also runs a free park-and-ride from the casino: no reservation is needed, first buses leave 30 minutes before doors open, and buses run continuously during the show and for up to one hour after it ends. A party bus from Bloomington to Mystic Lake means your group arrives together, the pregame energy builds on the ride down US-169, and pickup after the show is already arranged—no scrambling for rideshares in the parking lot after a late concert.

On Vikings game days and major event nights at U.S. Bank Stadium, roads around the stadium including Chicago Avenue South and 5th Street South experience heavy closures and traffic management starting three or more hours before kickoff. The stadium's own guidance confirms that buses and oversized vehicles should drop off guests on Chicago Avenue South, between 4th and 5th Streets South, along the east side of the stadium. After drop-off, the bus stages off-site—charter bus parking is located on 7th Street South.

Common staging areas are surface lots along 5th Street South and Park Avenue South. Downtown Minneapolis requires a charter bus parking permit purchased before arrival, and event reservations do not cover overnight parking; Zone 6 at 950 Hawthorne Avenue is the overnight option. Your party bus picks you up from the same Chicago Avenue corridor after the game.

Rideshare pickup is staged at 5th Street South between Portland and Chicago Avenues—a different zone entirely. A party bus keeps your whole group together from Bloomington to the gate and back, with the postgame celebration already rolling before you hit I-35W. Confirm current drop-off and staging details on the U.S. Bank Stadium A-Z guide before game day.

Target Center directs buses and oversized vehicles to drop off on 1st Avenue North, the main frontage road, near the main entrance. Target Center requires bus parking to be reserved through MPLS Parking. After drop-off, buses typically stage at surface lots near Target Field Station (the light rail hub at 5th St N and 3rd Ave N) or along 6th Street North in the Warehouse District.

For major concerts—the kind that sell out Target Center—Minneapolis enforces no-parking zones on 1st Ave N within two hours of events, so your bus drops the group and relocates rather than waiting curbside. Bus parking costs $30, overnight bus parking costs $40, and reservations are handled through the Target Center bus parking page or at 612-343-7275 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Rideshare pickup is on 6th Street North between 1st and 2nd Avenues North, a different spot from where the bus drops you. Confirm current staging details on the Target Center directions and parking page before your event night.

Bloomington Event Center (1800 W Old Shakopee Rd, Bloomington, MN 55431) is a private banquet and event venue surrounded by a large surface parking lot. Party buses can pull directly into the lot for drop-off at the main entrance—no designated bus-only zone or advance permit is required the way a major stadium would. After drop-off, the bus can stage in the outer portion of the surface lot until your event wraps up.

Because it's a private venue rather than a large public arena, logistics here are more flexible than at Mall of America or US Bank Stadium. Call the venue directly at (952) 888-2002 to confirm current parking and access for your event date, especially if you're coordinating multiple buses for a large wedding or private event.

Book three to six months out for most Bloomington-area party bus trips to get the best selection and pricing. Stretch that to six months or more for the dates that fill fastest across the Twin Cities metro. Prom season runs April through May across Bloomington's Jefferson, Kennedy, and Lincoln High Schools—and every other school in the metro—all competing for the same buses on the same weekends.

Vikings home Sundays run September through January and pull demand across the entire region. Mystic Lake Amphitheater's summer concert season books out fast, and New Year's Eve is the single hardest night of the year to find availability. The cheapest and easiest windows to book are typically January after the holidays, February, and early March.

Waiting until the last minute almost always means higher prices or no availability at all—so the sooner you lock in your date, the better your options. Call 612-473-5970 right now to hold your date!
