Fill out one quick form and instantly compare 40 passenger party buses and rates from a network of independently owned transportation companies serving Washington, D.C. — no account required, no callbacks, no obligation.

More About The 40 Passenger Party Bus
A 40 passenger party bus is the sweet spot for large groups that want the ride to feel like part of the night. Most 40-passenger buses run between 35 and 40 feet long and seat the full group on perimeter-style wraparound bench seating — everyone faces the center, everyone stays in the conversation. This is the size that makes sense when a minibus is too small and a full 56-seat motorcoach feels like overkill.
It's the right call for wedding shuttles looping between hotels in Dupont Circle and a reception in the Navy Yard, for bar crawls winding through Adams Morgan and Columbia Heights, and for stadium runs up to Northwest Stadium on game day. At 40 seats, your group isn't crammed — there's actual room to move around and enjoy the ride before the event even starts.

How much does a 40 Passenger Party Bus cost in Washington?
A 40 passenger party bus rental in Washington, D.C. typically runs $300–$350 per hour on weekdays and $325–$500 per hour on weekends, with full-day rates generally landing between $2,300 and $3,500. Weekend evenings — especially Friday and Saturday nights during Cherry Blossom Festival in April, Inauguration week in January, and Commanders home games in the fall — tend to push toward the top of that range because demand spikes and availability tightens fast. Weekday corporate shuttles and afternoon wedding runs more often land toward the lower end.
These are planning ranges to give you an idea of what to expect; your real quote moves with the date, hours, vehicle availability, and your specific itinerary. The fastest way to get a number for your actual trip: fill out the quick form or call 202-602-1664 — pricing in about a minute.
