A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Cheer on the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers
There is nothing quite like a summer evening in the Fox Cities cheering on the home team. The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, the High-A affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers, play their home games at the beautiful Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium (2400 N Casaloma Dr, Appleton, WI 54913). This stadium is a local jewel, offering a fantastic atmosphere for groups of all sizes, from corporate outings to family reunions and school field trips . However, coordinating a convoy of cars to get everyone to the first pitch on time can be a logistical nightmare.
When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton, your group arrives together and in style. We can drop you off right near the entrance, saving your group the hassle of navigating the parking lots. Our buses offer plenty of undercarriage storage for banners, coolers, and gloves if you plan on trying to catch a foul ball. Plus, after a night of hot dogs, craft beer, and perhaps a post-game fireworks show, you have a driver ready to take everyone home comfortably. Whether you are coming from Oshkosh, Neenah, or right here in Appleton, a private shuttle is the best way to experience minor league baseball at its finest.
The Ultimate Packer Backer Road Trip
Appleton is widely considered the perfect home base for fans heading to Green Bay for a Packers game. Located just about 30 miles south of Lambeau Field (1265 Lombardi Ave, Green Bay, WI 54304), Appleton offers more affordable hotel options and a slightly quieter atmosphere while still being close enough for an easy game-day commute. However, anyone who has driven on I-41 on a Sunday during football season knows that the traffic can be intense. Why fight the gridlock in separate cars when you can turn the drive into a tailgate party on wheels?
Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton specializes in game day transportation to Green Bay. Renting a full-size charter bus allows your entire group of fans to travel together. Use the onboard WiFi to check fantasy scores, watch pre-game analysis on the flat-screen TVs, or simply enjoy a cold beverage responsibly as your designated driver handles the highway. Our buses have massive storage bays perfect for grills, folding chairs, tents, and coolers, ensuring your tailgate at Lambeau is legendary. We will get you there early enough to soak in the history and get you home safely after the final whistle.
Lawrence University Athletics Transportation
Appleton is proud to be the home of Lawrence University, and the Vikings boast a robust athletics program. Whether you are a visiting team needing reliable transport or an alumni group heading to a homecoming game, Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton has the fleet to support you. We frequently service trips to the Alexander Gymnasium (1100 E Fremont St, Appleton, WI 54915) for basketball and volleyball, as well as the historic Banta Bowl (1300 E Boldt Way, Appleton, WI 54911) for football and soccer matches.
Collegiate teams require specific amenities to stay game-ready. Our charter buses offer plenty of legroom for tall athletes to stretch out, individual power outlets to keep devices charged and focus music playing, and climate control to keep muscles warm and loose. We understand the tight schedules of collegiate athletics; the drivers are punctual, ensuring your team arrives for warm-ups with time to spare. For alumni and parents, a minibus rental creates a fun, communal atmosphere to travel to the game, allowing you to reminisce and cheer without worrying about finding parking on a busy campus.
Youth Tournament Travel in the Fox Cities
The Fox Cities area is a hub for youth sports tournaments in the Midwest, drawing teams from across Wisconsin, Illinois, and Minnesota. The USA Youth Sports Complex (3300 E Evergreen Dr, Appleton, WI 54913) is a premier destination featuring 15 soccer fields and two baseball diamonds. Organizing travel for a youth team involves moving not just energetic kids, but also parents, siblings, and a mountain of equipment. Trying to coordinate a dozen minivans is a recipe for stress and delays.
Simplify your tournament weekend by booking a charter bus rental. We can shuttle your team from your hotel to the fields and back, ensuring the whole team stays together. Between games, the bus provides a climate-controlled haven where players can rest, hydrate, and cool down away from the sun. The undercarriage storage is spacious enough for soccer bags, baseball bats, pop-up tents for parents, and coolers full of sports drinks. With Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton, you provide the coaching and encouragement; we provide the logistical support to help your team succeed.
Ice Hockey Tournaments at Appleton Ice Center
Hockey is a way of life in Wisconsin, and Appleton is no exception. The Appleton Family Ice Center (1717 E Witzke Blvd, Appleton, WI 54911), located within Appleton Memorial Park, hosts numerous tournaments and leagues throughout the colder months. We also service the nearby Tri-County Ice Arena (700 E Shady Ln, Neenah, WI 54956). Any hockey parent knows that goaltender pads and stick bags take up a tremendous amount of space—often more than a standard SUV can handle comfortably when you have a full car of passengers.
A 56-passenger charter bus is the ultimate solution for hockey team travel. The luggage bays beneath the bus are cavernous, easily swallowing the bulkiest hockey gear so that players can relax in the cabin above without equipment cramping their style. We can transport your team to the rink for morning skates, back to the hotel for rest, and out to team dinners in downtown Appleton. Safety is our priority, especially during Wisconsin winters; drivers navigate snowy and icy roads, giving parents and coaches peace of mind.
Golf Outings in the Fox River Valley
When the snow melts, the clubs come out. Appleton and the surrounding Fox Valley offer some fantastic public and private courses for golf enthusiasts. Whether you are organizing a corporate outing, a bachelor party, or a charity tournament, transportation is key to keeping the group together. Reid Golf Course (1100 E Fremont St, Appleton, WI 54915) offers a challenging round right in the city, while Chaska Golf Course (W6575 W Greenville Dr, Greenville, WI 54942) offers scenic views just a short drive west.
Book a minibus or a sprinter van for your golfing group with Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton. Our vehicles have ample space to store golf clubs securely, ensuring they aren't rattled or damaged during transit. Enjoy a few drinks on the course knowing you have a driver waiting to take you to the clubhouse or to a steak dinner afterward. We can even arrange a multi-course tour, taking you from Appleton to top-rated courses in Green Bay or Kohler for a weekend of links and luxury.
Post-Game Celebrations in Downtown Appleton
The game doesn't have to end when the clock hits zero. Downtown Appleton along College Avenue is the heartbeat of the city's nightlife and dining scene, offering a perfect spot for post-game celebrations. Whether you want to grab a burger and watch the late games at The Bar (427 W College Ave, Appleton, WI 54911) or enjoy live music and a vibrant atmosphere at Cleats Bar & Grill (located near the sports complexes), moving a large group between bars and restaurants can be tricky.
With a private shuttle bus rental, your group can hop between the best spots in the Fox Cities safely. You don't have to worry about splitting tabs for rideshares or waiting on the curb for a car that fits everyone. Your bus will be waiting for you. This is an excellent option for bachelor parties, corporate outings celebrating a successful quarter, or fan clubs looking to toast a big win. Charter Bus Rental Company Appleton ensures that the fun continues safely from the stadium to the city center and back to your hotel.

Frequently Asked Questions About Appleton Sports Transportation
Can we drink alcohol on the bus?
In many cases, yes! Alcohol consumption is often permitted on our charter buses and party buses , provided all passengers are of legal drinking age (21+). However, this must be disclosed and arranged at the time of booking. A refundable damage deposit may be required. Please note that glass bottles are typically prohibited for safety reasons, and the driver reserves the right to terminate the ride if behavior becomes unruly. Be sure to ask your reservation specialist about our alcohol policy when you call 920-305-9030.
How much storage space is there for sports equipment?
Our full-size 56-passenger charter buses feature massive undercarriage luggage bays that are perfect for bulky sports gear like hockey bags, football pads, baseball equipment, and golf clubs. There is also overhead storage inside the cabin for personal items like backpacks and duffel bags. If you are renting a minibus, storage space is more limited and is usually best for personal items, though some models do have rear storage compartments. When booking, let us know exactly what kind of equipment you are bringing so we can match you with the right bus.
How far in advance should I book for a Packers game?
Green Bay Packers home games are massive events that draw fans from all over the country, and demand for charter buses in the Appleton and Green Bay area skyrockets on game weekends. We strongly recommend booking your bus rental at least 3 to 6 months in advance for any Packers game day to ensure availability and get the best pricing. For playoff games or rivalry matchups (like against the Bears or Vikings), booking even earlier is advisable.
Do you shuttle to Milwaukee for Bucks or Brewers games?
Absolutely! While we are based in Appleton, our service area covers the entire state of Wisconsin and beyond. We frequently transport groups from the Fox Cities down to Milwaukee to see the Bucks play at Fiserv Forum or the Brewers at American Family Field. It is a great way to enjoy a Milwaukee sports outing without the stress of driving I-41 or finding parking in the city. We can also take you to Madison for Badgers games or anywhere else your fandom takes you.
Is parking included at the venues?
No, parking fees at stadiums, arenas, or event centers are not included in your charter bus rental quote. You will be responsible for paying for bus parking at the venue. Many venues, like Lambeau Field or American Family Field, require charter bus parking passes to be purchased in advance. We recommend checking the venue's official website for bus parking policies and fees. Your driver will drop you off as close to the entrance as possible, but you must ensure they have a place to park during the event.
