A few of the companies we’ve worked with
The Ultimate Gateway to MetLife Stadium
For football fans in Elizabeth, the pilgrimage to MetLife Stadium (1 MetLife Stadium Dr, East Rutherford, NJ 07073) is a sacred ritual. As the home of both the New York Giants and the New York Jets, this venue hosts some of the most intense sporting events in the country. However, anyone who has driven to the Meadowlands on a Sunday knows the struggle: gridlock on the Western Spur of the Turnpike, exorbitant parking fees, and the chaos of finding your friends in a sea of cars. When you book a private charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Elizabeth, you skip the stress entirely. Your driver will navigate the heavy game-day traffic while you and your group get the pre-game festivities started on the bus with your favorite music and ample room to relax.
Our buses are perfectly suited for the ultimate tailgate experience. The spacious undercarriage luggage bays provide more than enough room to store tents, folding chairs, charcoal grills, coolers, and cornhole sets. Once you arrive, your bus can park in the designated oversized vehicle lots, serving as a central hub for your group to eat, drink, and rally before kickoff. Whether you are heading up for a preseason match, a regular-season rivalry game, or a major concert event hosted at the stadium, our team ensures you get door-to-door service. We can pick your group up from a central location in Elizabeth, such as The Mills at Jersey Gardens (651 Kapkowski Rd, Elizabeth, NJ 07201), and drop you right at the stadium gates.
Cheer on the Devils at the Prudential Center
Located just a few miles north of Elizabeth, the Prudential Center (25 Lafayette St, Newark, NJ 07102)—affectionately known as "The Rock"—is the heartbeat of New Jersey hockey. Home to the NHL's New Jersey Devils and the Seton Hall Pirates NCAA basketball team, this arena draws thousands of fans from Elizabeth and Union County. While public transit is an option, it often involves crowded trains and strict schedules that don't align with overtime games or post-win celebrations. A private minibus rental offers a personalized alternative, ensuring your group travels together in comfort. It is the perfect solution for corporate outings, fan clubs, or youth hockey teams attending a game together.
Navigating downtown Newark during an event can be tricky, with road closures and expensive parking garages that fill up fast. Your Charter Bus Rental Company Elizabeth driver will handle the city streets for you, dropping your group off within walking distance of the entrance on Mulberry Street. After the game, instead of rushing to catch a train or waiting for surge-priced rideshares, your bus will be waiting to take you home or to a post-game dinner in Elizabeth. If you are planning a group outing for Seton Hall students or alumni, our buses can easily shuttle you from campus locations or local meeting points directly to the action, keeping the school spirit high with onboard PA systems for cheers and chants.
Soccer Fever at Red Bull Arena
Just across the river in Harrison, Red Bull Arena (600 Cape May St, Harrison, NJ 07029) offers one of the best soccer atmospheres in the United States. Whether you are supporting the New York Red Bulls in the MLS or Gotham FC in the NWSL, the energy here is undeniable. For local soccer clubs in Elizabeth, renting a charter bus to attend a professional match is an inspiring team-building event. We work with youth leagues, high school teams, and adult recreation leagues to provide safe, reliable transportation to matches. With a charter bus, coaches can review strategies on the way to the game using onboard TV monitors, or players can simply bond and enjoy the ride.
Parking at Red Bull Arena can be scarce and often requires walking long distances from off-site lots. With a charter bus rental, we prioritize your convenience. Your driver can drop your group curbside near the stadium, allowing you to head straight for the supporters' section or the concession stands. For larger groups, such as summer camps or school field trips attending a mid-day match, our 56-passenger motorcoaches keep everyone accounted for and secure. Plus, with climate-controlled cabins, you can cool off after a hot summer match or stay warm during those chilly late-season evening games. Let us handle the logistics so you can focus on the beautiful game.
Local High School & Youth Sports Transportation
Elizabeth is a city with a rich tradition of high school athletics, and Charter Bus Rental Company Elizabeth is proud to support our local student-athletes. From the Elizabeth High School Minutemen to local traveling leagues, we provide safe and reliable transportation for teams of all sizes. Whether you are headed to Williams Field (315 S Broad St, Elizabeth, NJ 07202) for a home game or traveling across the state for a regional tournament, our buses offer a significant upgrade from the standard yellow school bus. Athletes appreciate the extra legroom and reclining seats, which allow them to rest and recover before and after intense competition.
We understand that logistics for away games can be a nightmare for coaches and athletic directors. Organizing carpools requires relying on parents, and equipment often gets crammed into trunks. A charter bus rental solves these issues by providing a single vehicle for the entire roster, coaching staff, and equipment. Our buses feature massive storage bays perfect for football pads, baseball bags, lacrosse sticks, and cheerleading gear. We also offer WiFi and power outlets, so students can catch up on homework or relax with music during long drives to tournaments in South Jersey or Pennsylvania. Safety is our top priority, and we only work with designated drivers to ensure your team arrives comfortably every time.
Golfing Group Trips Near Elizabeth
For those who prefer the quiet intensity of the fairway to the roar of a stadium, the Elizabeth area offers excellent access to premier golf courses. One of the local favorites is the Galloping Hill Golf Course (3 Golf Dr, Kenilworth, NJ 07033), often referred to as "The Golf Course That Never Sleeps." Located just minutes from Elizabeth, this course is a popular destination for corporate tournaments, charity fundraisers, and bachelor parties. If you are organizing a large group outing, a minibus rental is the most efficient way to transport your golfers and their clubs. Standard vehicles simply cannot accommodate multiple golf bags and passengers comfortably, but our buses have ample space for everyone and everything.
We can also facilitate trips to other prestigious courses in the region, such as the Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield or outings further afield to courses in Bedminster. A private shuttle allows your group to enjoy the "19th hole" at the clubhouse without worrying about driving home. Enjoy a few drinks after your round, knowing that a driver is waiting to transport you back to your office, hotel, or reception venue in Elizabeth. Whether it is a foursome or a forty-person corporate retreat, Charter Bus Rental Company Elizabeth ensures your golf outing is a hole-in-one experience.
Access to New York City Sports
One of the biggest advantages of staying or living in Elizabeth is the unparalleled access to New York City's legendary sports venues without the high cost of staying in Manhattan. We regularly transport fan groups from Elizabeth to Yankee Stadium (1 E 161 St, Bronx, NY 10451) for baseball games, Madison Square Garden (4 Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, NY 10001) for Knicks and Rangers games, and Citi Field (41 Seaver Way, Queens, NY 11368) for Mets games. Taking the train into the city with a large group can be chaotic, especially during rush hour or late at night. A charter bus rental offers a direct, private, and secure line of travel.
When you book a bus to NYC venues, you avoid the exorbitant parking rates that can reach upwards of $50 or $60 per car. Instead, you split the cost of the bus among your group, often saving money while gaining a luxury experience. Your driver will navigate the bridges and tunnels and drop you as close to the venue as city regulations allow. On the way back, you can relax in a quiet, air-conditioned environment, far removed from the noisy subway platforms. It is the sophisticated, stress-free way to enjoy the bright lights of New York sports.
The Best Sports Bars in Elizabeth for Away Games
Sometimes the best seat in the house isn't in the stadium—it's in front of a giant HD screen with great food and drinks. When the team is playing an away game, Elizabeth has a vibrant sports bar scene perfect for watch parties. Gather your fan club and rent a minibus for a pub crawl or a dedicated ride to a viewing party. Places like The Lobby (821 Spring St, Elizabeth, NJ 07201) offer a high-energy atmosphere, massive screens, and a nightlife vibe that makes every goal feel like a championship win. Alternatively, Terminal One Sports Bar (566 Spring St, Elizabeth, NJ 07201) offers a classic sports pub feel perfect for die-hard fans.
By renting a bus for your watch party, you ensure that everyone in your group can indulge in the game-day specials without the risk of driving. We can pick your group up from residential neighborhoods, take you to the bar for the big game, and ensure everyone gets home safely once the final whistle blows. It turns a standard Sunday game into a memorable event for your entire friend group or alumni association. We can even organize a multi-stop itinerary if you want to sample wings and brews at different spots throughout Union County.

Frequently Asked Questions About Elizabeth Sports Transportation
Is there enough room for all our tailgating gear?
Absolutely. If you book a full-size 56-passenger charter bus, you will have access to spacious undercarriage luggage bays. These compartments are huge and perfect for storing coolers, folding tables, chairs, small grills (must be empty of fuel), and cornhole boards. If you are booking a smaller minibus, storage space is more limited (usually just overhead racks), so please let our reservation specialists know exactly what you plan to bring so we can match you with the right vehicle.
Do you provide transportation for school athletic teams?
Yes, we are a trusted provider for school districts and universities. We prioritize safety above all else, working with fully designated drivers and well-equipped vehicles that meet all Department of Transportation safety regulations. We can transport teams to away games, regional tournaments, and championships anywhere in New Jersey. We also offer ADA-accessible buses if any student-athletes or staff require accommodations.
How far in advance should we book a bus for a major sporting event?
For major events like NFL games at MetLife Stadium, playoff games, or large concerts, we recommend booking as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance. These events create high demand for buses in the NYC/NJ metro area, and availability can dwindle quickly. Booking early not only guarantees you a vehicle but often secures a better rate. However, we can often accommodate last-minute requests, so don't hesitate to call us even if the game is coming up soon.
