Charter Buses to Sanford Stadium for Georgia Bulldogs Games
Find the easiest way to get your fan group to Sanford Stadium (100 Sanford Dr, Athens, GA 30602) on game day! With a capacity of 93,033, Sanford Stadium is one of the largest college football stadiums in the country — and on a home Saturday, Athens transforms entirely. Lumpkin Street and Sanford Drive close to through traffic hours before kickoff, and every parking deck in the core fills well before noon.
Instead of circling for a spot or paying surge prices for a rideshare from the Ramsey Student Center (330 River Rd) — the designated rideshare pickup zone, a long walk from the gates — a charter bus keeps your group together through the traffic controls and handles the rest. UGA Parking Services designates the Tanner Health System Bus Lot off East Campus Road for motorcoach parking on game days, and motorcoach permits must be purchased in advance through UGA Parking at (706) 542-7275. Day-of permits are not guaranteed, so lock in your bus and your parking pass early.
Compare charter buses, minibuses, and party buses from a network of companies serving Athens and book the one that fits your group!
Moving Your Group to Stegeman Coliseum for Bulldogs Basketball and Gymnastics
Moving a group to Stegeman Coliseum (100 Smith St, Athens, GA 30602) for a Georgia Bulldogs basketball or gymnastics event is simple when you've got a bus handling the pickup and drop-off! Stegeman sits on the west side of campus, accessible via East Campus Road and Carlton Street, with the Coliseum Parking Deck adjacent for bus staging when arrangements are made in advance. Georgia Gymnastics regularly draws sell-out crowds, and Bulldogs basketball nights pull heavy traffic into the campus core.
A minibus or charter bus keeps your whole group together from the first pickup through the final buzzer — no splitting into separate cars, no hunting for parking, no surge-priced rideshares after the game. Compare available buses and pricing from the network in under 30 seconds right here, or call 706-608-4030 to build a custom package for your event!
For a smoother campus arrival, UGA directs fans to the Carlton Street Parking Deck (S15), South Campus Parking Deck (S11), or Foley Field lot (S14); those lots and decks open two hours before tip-off. The Smith Street entrance also has the Coliseum elevator for step-free access. See the Stegeman Coliseum gameday details before you roll in.
Finding Group Transportation to Atlanta for Braves, Falcons, Hawks, and United Games
Finding a bus from Athens to Atlanta for a major league game is one of the most popular requests in the entire network — and Athenscharterbusservices.com makes it incredibly easy! Mercedes-Benz Stadium (1 AMB Dr NW, Atlanta, GA 30313) is about 70 miles west on US-78, roughly 90 minutes to two hours depending on traffic — and Atlanta ranked among the most congested cities in the country in the INRIX 2024 Global Traffic Scorecard, so that buffer matters. Charter buses drop off on Andrew Young International Blvd NW near Gate 1, while bus parking is coordinated through the stadium's transportation team.
For Truist Park (755 Battery Ave SE, Atlanta, GA 30339), buses drop on Battery Avenue with parking in Lot 1 reserved through Braves Group Sales. A full-size 56-passenger motorcoach with reclining seats, WiFi, and onboard restroom turns the 90-minute ride into part of the event. Compare buses and pricing from a network serving Athens and Atlanta — fill out the form or call 706-608-4030!
A Minibus or Charter Bus to Coolray Field for Gwinnett Stripers Games
A Gwinnett Stripers game at Coolray Field (2500 Buford Dr, Lawrenceville, GA 30043) is one of the best group outings in the region — and at roughly 50 miles from Athens via GA-316, it's closer than downtown Atlanta! A 15- to 35-passenger minibus is a perfect fit for a smaller fan group, a company outing, or a family reunion trip to the ballpark. Buses drop off along Buford Drive near the main entrance, and the GA-316 corridor stays manageable outside of peak commute windows.
Compare minibuses and charter buses from a network of companies serving Athens and Gwinnett County, see pictures and pricing side by side, and book the bus that fits your group — all in one place, all in minutes! Use the online quote tool or call 706-608-4030 any time.
The bus-specific approach is the stop light off Buford Drive/Hwy 20: buses enter there for parking directly adjacent to the stadium and should not enter or exit via Ballpark Lane. Bus parking is listed at a $20 cost plus taxes and fees. The Coolray Field parking and bus directions show the turn that keeps your minibus or motorcoach out of the wrong entrance.
Athenscharterbusservices.com is the Easiest Way to Book Group Transportation for UGA's G-Day Spring Game
Athenscharterbusservices.com is the easiest way to find and book a bus for UGA's annual G-Day Spring Game at Sanford Stadium — and you'll want to book early! G-Day typically draws 50,000 to 80,000 fans to Athens in late April, making it one of the biggest single-day transportation demand spikes of the entire year. The same road closures and parking restrictions that apply on fall Saturdays are in effect, and the same motorcoach permit requirement through UGA Parking Services applies.
Because Athenscharterbusservices.com connects you to a large network of independently owned bus companies rather than a single fleet, you have far more options to compare — even on a high-demand spring date. Fill out one quick form, compare vehicles and pricing, and lock in your bus before the date fills. Call 706-608-4030 or use the online tool right now!

Charter buses and motorcoaches do not have a drop-off location near Sanford Stadium on game day because of road closures. For accessible arrivals, the East Deck on River Road runs complimentary lift-equipped shuttles beginning 3 1/2 hours before kickoff and drops guests outside Gate 6 until 15 minutes after kickoff; return service runs until traffic control ends. The Sanford Stadium accessibility and parking details spell out the current approach.
Motorcoach parking on game days is designated at the Tanner Health System Bus Lot off East Campus Road, and permits must be purchased in advance through UGA Parking Services at (706) 542-7275. Day-of permits are not guaranteed — reserve your motorcoach parking pass when you book your bus, not the morning of the game.
Yes. UGA Parking Services requires motorcoaches to have a pre-purchased game-day motorcoach parking permit to use the designated bus lots, including the Tanner Health System Bus Lot off East Campus Road. These permits are sold in advance and are not guaranteed at the gate on game day.
Contact UGA Parking Services directly at (706) 542-7275 or through parking.uga.edu to reserve your permit alongside your bus booking.
Book as early as possible — ideally three to six months in advance for regular home games, and even earlier for marquee SEC matchups and rivalry weekends. UGA home Saturdays are among the highest-demand days in the entire northeast Georgia region, and buses from the network fill up fast. Waiting until the week of the game almost always means higher prices and limited availability.
The earlier you compare and book, the better your options and the better your price!
