More About The 18 Passenger Party Bus
An 18-passenger party bus sits between a Sprinter van and a full-size party bus — wide enough for a real interior layout, compact enough to pull right up to the curb on University Drive or drop a group at the Desert Financial Arena entrance without needing a commercial staging lot. Most 18-passenger buses run on a raised-roof cutaway or a small bus chassis, giving passengers real headroom to stand and move around rather than stay buckled in the whole ride. That standing room is the biggest practical difference between this vehicle and a Sprinter, and for a group celebrating a birthday or heading out after an ASU game, that difference is the whole point.
Interior layouts typically feature forward- and side-facing seating wrapped around the cabin so everyone faces each other — exactly the setup that turns a 20-minute ride across Tempe into part of the night itself.

Common Amenities Available on 18 Passenger Party Bus Rentals
Amenities vary by bus and provider, but 18-passenger party buses in the Tempe area commonly come equipped with color-changing LED cabin lighting, a built-in premium sound system with Bluetooth connectivity, flat-panel TVs mounted to the interior walls, and wraparound perimeter seating with plush upholstery. Climate control matters especially in Tempe, where summer game-day temperatures regularly hit triple digits before kickoff — most buses in this size class run powerful A/C capable of keeping the cabin comfortable well before the first stop. Tinted privacy windows are standard on most units, and many buses in this class include onboard charging outlets or USB ports at the seats so nobody is hunting for a power bank before the night gets started.
Exact amenities depend on the specific vehicle — the quote comparison tool shows photos and specs so you can see what's included before you commit.

How much does an 18 Passenger Party Bus cost in Tempe?
An 18-passenger party bus rental in Tempe generally runs $275–$350 per hour on weekdays and $275–$400 per hour on weekends, with full-day packages available in the $2,100–$2,600 range. Weekend rates — especially Friday and Saturday nights during ASU home football season (September through November), Innings Festival weekend in February, and the Tempe Festival of the Arts in December — can push toward the top of that range fast, and availability tightens up weeks in advance on those dates. Booking during a Sun Devils playoff stretch or an ASU hockey playoff run at Mullett Arena has the same effect locally.
The actual rate for your trip depends on your date, how many hours you need, your pickup and drop-off locations, and which specific bus is available. The fastest way to get a quote for your itinerary: call 480-389-2933 or fill out the quick online form — pricing comes back in under a minute.
