A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Experience Broadway and the Arts at the Schuster Center
For lovers of high art, Broadway musicals, and the symphony, the Benjamin & Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center is the crown jewel of downtown Dayton. Located at 1 W 2nd St, Dayton, OH 45402, this stunning venue features a world-class atrium and the Mead Theatre, which boasts a ceiling studded with fiber-optic lights depicting the Dayton sky on the eve of the Wright Brothers' first flight.
Attending a performance of Hamilton, The Lion King, or the Dayton Philharmonic with a large group is a sophisticated affair, and your transportation should match the occasion. Instead of forcing your group to navigate downtown one-way streets and pay for individual parking garage spots, book a luxury charter bus rental. Your driver can drop your entire party off right at the curbside entrance on Second Street, allowing you to walk straight into the Wintergarden without worrying about the weather.
We work with school groups for matinee educational performances, senior living communities attending the opera, and corporate groups hosting nights at the ballet. Our buses can come equipped with reclining seats and climate control, ensuring you arrive refreshed and ready for the curtain call.
Summer Concerts at The Rose Music Center at The Heights
When the weather warms up, the music scene in the Dayton area moves outdoors—but comfortably under a roof. The Rose Music Center at The Heights (6800 Executive Blvd, Huber Heights, OH 45424) has quickly become one of the region's favorite venues. Located just off I-70, this fully covered outdoor amphitheater hosts everything from classic rock legends and country stars to contemporary pop acts.
Because The Rose is located in a busy retail and dining district in Huber Heights, traffic can get congested leading up to showtime. By renting a party bus or minibus from Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton, you keep your group together. You can start the pre-concert excitement the moment you board, utilizing our onboard sound systems to play the artist's greatest hits. Plus, with a private shuttle, you don't have to worry about finding your friends in the parking lot after the encore. We handle the exit traffic while you relax in air-conditioned comfort.
"The Summer's Best Music" at Fraze Pavilion
Another staple of the Dayton summer is the Fraze Pavilion, located in Kettering at 695 Lincoln Park Blvd, Kettering, OH 45429. "The Fraze" is known for its intimate atmosphere and its famous "Summer's Best Music" lineup, featuring jazz festivals, 90s throwbacks, and the wildly popular Bacon Fest.
Parking in residential Kettering can be tricky for large groups, and walking long distances from overflow lots isn't ideal, especially for older guests or families with children. A charter bus rental eliminates these hurdles. We can arrange drop-off and pick-up services right near the Lincoln Park entrance. If you are organizing a large group for the Spass Nacht (Austrian Festival) or a major concert, a 56-passenger motorcoach offers ample undercarriage storage for lawn chairs (for festival seating events) or coolers for the ride home.
Aviation Heritage at the Dayton Air Show
You cannot talk about events in Dayton without mentioning the CenterPoint Energy Dayton Air Show. Held annually at the Dayton International Airport (3600 Terminal Dr, Dayton, OH 45377), this is one of the premier aviation events in the country, drawing crowds from all over the Midwest to see the Blue Angels, the Thunderbirds, and historic aircraft.
The traffic getting into the Air Show on Vandalia roads can be intense, often backing up for miles. Inside the gates, the walk from the general parking grass lots to the flight line can be long and hot. When you book a charter bus with Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton, you upgrade your experience significantly. We can navigate the traffic efficiently, and buses often have designated routing or drop-off procedures that differ from general public cars.
For corporate hospitality tents or large family reunions gathering for the show, having an air-conditioned bus to retreat to or travel in is a lifesaver during the humid Ohio July heat. Your driver stays with the vehicle, ensuring a smooth departure once the final jet has landed.
Cheer on the Dayton Dragons at Day Air Ballpark
Dayton holds a unique record in professional sports: the Dayton Dragons have sold out every single home game since their inception in 2000. Playing at Day Air Ballpark (220 N Patterson Blvd, Dayton, OH 45402), a Dragons game is the quintessential Dayton group outing.
Whether you are a local business rewarding employees with a night at the ballpark, a school group, or a large family, coordinating 20 or 50 people to meet at the stadium is a challenge. Downtown parking near the stadium is premium and scarce. A minibus or charter bus rental simplifies the logistics entirely. We can drop your group off right by the plaza, allowing you plenty of time to grab a hot dog and find your seats before the first pitch.
For adult groups, renting a bus means you can enjoy a few beers at the game without worrying about designating a driver. We serve as your dedicated driver, ensuring everyone gets back home or to the office comfortably.
Massive Events at the Wright State University Nutter Center
For the biggest indoor events in the region, all roads lead to the Wright State University Nutter Center (3640 Colonel Glenn Hwy, Fairborn, OH 45324). This arena hosts everything from monster truck rallies and WWE wrestling to major rock concerts and high school graduations.
Graduation season, in particular, turns the area around Colonel Glenn Highway into a gridlock. If you are a school administrator planning transport for a band or choir, or a large extended family attending a commencement ceremony, a charter bus is the most efficient way to travel. Our buses feature plenty of storage for instruments, caps, and gowns.
For concerts and entertainment events, a party bus rental allows you to hype up the crowd before you even arrive. With onboard amenities like WiFi and power outlets, passengers can post their photos and videos in real-time without draining their batteries.
Cultural Festivals: Celtic Fest and Hamvention
Dayton loves a festival, and two of the biggest draw massive crowds. The Dayton Celtic Festival takes over RiverScape MetroPark (111 E Monument Ave, Dayton, OH 45402) every July, filling downtown with Irish music, food, and dance. Parking is extremely limited downtown during this weekend. A shuttle bus rental allows your group to be dropped off steps from the festival grounds, avoiding the long walk from remote parking garages.
On a different note, the Dayton Hamvention is the world's largest amateur radio gathering, held at the Greene County Fairgrounds (120 Fairground Rd, Xenia, OH 45385). This event draws international visitors. Charter Bus Rental Company Dayton provides efficient shuttle services from area hotels to the fairgrounds, ensuring attendees maximize their time at the exhibits rather than waiting in line to park rental cars.
