Georgia Bulldogs Game Day Shuttles to Sanford Stadium
For quick and easy Sanford Stadium transportation, a charter bus or minibus rental is the smartest move your group can make on game day! Sanford Stadium holds 93,033 fans — one of the five largest college football stadiums in the country — and on home Saturdays, Lumpkin Street, Milledge Avenue, and US-78 back up hours before kickoff. Rideshare pickups get pushed far from the gates, leaving groups with a long walk after the final whistle.
One bus keeps your group together from the first tailgate stop through the last drop-off, with no parking scramble and no splitting up. UGA Parking Services coordinates game-day bus permits at (706) 542-7275, and lots typically open four hours before kickoff. Compare buses for your Bulldogs game at 706-608-4030 or use the online quote tool!
A full-size coach should not be sent into a conventional campus space: UGA directs oversized vehicles to park near the Ramsey Center and use the shuttle to Sanford Stadium, as detailed in the Sanford Stadium transportation policy. Your bus stays out of the packed campus lots while your passengers ride to the stadium and regroup with the coach after the game.
Concert & Live Music Night Transportation Through Downtown Athens
Give your group the night out Athens is famous for — without anyone worrying about parking or getting home! Athens is the birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s, and its live music scene is still one of the best in the South. The Georgia Theatre (215 N Lumpkin St, Athens, GA 30601) and the 40 Watt Club (285 W Washington St, Athens, GA 30601) both sit in the heart of downtown, where street parking is tight and rideshare surge pricing hits hardest on weekend nights.
A party bus or minibus rental keeps the whole group moving together between venues, with a pickup and drop-off plan already in place so the night runs on your schedule. Compare concert night buses from a network of independent operators serving Athens at 706-608-4030!
Wedding & Private Event Shuttles Across Athens and Oconee County
Athenscharterbusservices.com connects you to buses for weddings, rehearsal dinners, and private events at every major Athens-area venue! Whether you are shuttling guests between hotels on Milledge Avenue and a ceremony at the State Botanical Garden of Georgia (2450 S Milledge Ave, Athens, GA 30605), moving a wedding party to The Classic Center (300 N Thomas St, Athens, GA 30601), or coordinating arrivals at Foundry Park Inn & Spa (295 E Dougherty St, Athens, GA 30601), one shuttle bus keeps every guest on time and together. You can request available white, black, or silver vehicles to match your wedding colors, and compare minibuses through full-size charter buses from independent operators serving Athens and Oconee County.
Call 706-608-4030 or use the quote tool to compare wedding buses today!
For arena events at The Classic Center, Foundry Street closes to through traffic and the Foundry Street parking-deck entrance is closed; the venue also provides a bus parking request form. Your bus reaches the correct event-day approach without a last-minute detour.
UGA Field Trips, Graduation Shuttles & Campus Group Transportation
This is the kind of group transportation Athens runs on year-round! With more than 40,000 students and thousands of faculty and staff, the University of Georgia generates enormous demand for campus shuttles, field trips, and graduation transportation every single month. Spring commencement and December graduation ceremonies fill Stegeman Coliseum and Sanford Stadium, and UGA Move-In Weekend in August brings hundreds of families to campus at once.
A charter bus or minibus keeps student groups together for field trips to the Georgia Museum of Art (90 Carlton St, Athens, GA 30602) or the State Botanical Garden, and keeps families from circling a packed campus hunting for parking. Compare UGA group transportation options through Athenscharterbusservices.com at 706-608-4030!
Athens Brewery Tours, Prom & Bachelorette Party Buses
Booking a party bus for a brewery crawl, bachelorette night, or prom in Athens has never been easier! Athens has a thriving craft beer scene, and a party bus rental connects your group to Terrapin Beer Co., Creature Comforts Brewing Co., and Southern Brewing Company (231 Collins Industrial Blvd, Athens, GA 30601) without anyone splitting into separate cars or hunting for parking at every stop. For prom season in April and May — when Clarke County, Oconee County, and Madison County school districts all compete for the same vehicles — booking early is the only way to lock in the bus you want at the best price.

UGA Parking Services coordinates game-day bus parking on a per-event basis, and advance arrangements are required. Contact UGA Parking Services at (706) 542-7275 before your visit to confirm your drop-off zone and lot assignment. Buses typically use the East Campus Road and Sanford Drive corridor for drop-off, with designated bus lots in the East Campus area.
Lots open four hours before kickoff, and prepaid permits are required — day-of arrangements are not guaranteed.
Full-size buses should park near the Ramsey Center rather than entering a conventional campus space, then use the stadium shuttle; UGA's Sanford Stadium transportation policy identifies that oversized-vehicle route. Your bus remains staged away from the crowded gates while passengers ride to the stadium and return after the game.
Book at least three to six months out for UGA home football games, and stretch to six months or more for marquee matchups. Sanford Stadium holds 93,033 fans, and every operator serving Northeast Georgia competes for the same game-day inventory. Waiting until the last minute means higher rates and fewer vehicles to choose from.
UGA's home schedule typically runs September through November — check the schedule early and lock in your date as soon as tickets are confirmed.
A charter bus or minibus rental is by far the easiest way to move a group from Atlanta to Athens for a Bulldogs game, concert, or event. The drive is roughly 70 miles via US-78 and takes about 1 to 1.5 hours off-peak — but on UGA game days, US-78 and the SR-10 Bypass back up significantly. One bus keeps everyone together, eliminates the parking scramble in Athens, and lets the group enjoy the ride instead of navigating traffic.

Yes! Party buses and minibuses are a perfect fit for AthFest Music & Arts Festival in June and any night out through downtown Athens. A party bus rental keeps your group together between the Georgia Theatre (215 N Lumpkin St), the 40 Watt Club (285 W Washington St), and any other stops on your itinerary — with no parking headaches and no rideshare surge pricing at last call.

Absolutely — and booking early is critical for both. UGA spring commencement in May and December graduation ceremonies draw thousands of families to Athens at once, and Move-In Weekend in August is one of the busiest transportation weekends of the year on campus. Minibuses and full-size charter buses are available through the network for both events, but availability fills fast.
