18 Passenger Party Bus

Every 18-passenger party bus comes standard with wraparound leather or vinyl seating, color-changing LED lighting, a Bluetooth-capable sound system, flat-screen TVs, and hardwood-style flooring. You’ll also get multiple USB ports and 110V outlets for device charging, built-in coolers or wet bars for drinks, and tinted windows for privacy. Additional features include a powerful HVAC system to keep the cabin comfortable, optional Wi-Fi, and storage space for personal items or small bags. This setup ensures your group stays entertained, connected, and comfortable for the entire trip.

Renting an 18-passenger party bus in Everett typically costs between $150 and $300+ per hour on weekdays, $150 to $320+ per hour on weekends, and $1,000–$2,200 per day. Final pricing depends on factors such as the exact pickup location, total trip duration, mileage, time of year, and current availability—buses book up quickly around major events and wedding season, which can drive rates higher. Your quote includes the bus and driver, but additional expenses like parking passes at venues, tolls, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips are either paid directly by you or billed separately after the trip. A standard gratuity is included upfront; however, you’re welcome to tip extra if you feel the service exceeded expectations.

The 18-passenger party bus stands out from other bus types in our fleet due to its unique combination of size, amenities, and versatility. Unlike larger charter buses or motorcoaches, which are designed primarily for long-distance travel and seating capacity, the 18-passenger party bus is built for social interaction and entertainment. It features wraparound seating, advanced audio-visual systems, and customizable lighting, making it ideal for events where the journey is part of the celebration.

Compared to smaller sprinter vans or minibuses, the 18-passenger party bus offers significantly more space for standing, dancing, and moving around, as well as better amenities for hosting pre-game tailgates, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or wedding shuttles. While it may not have the luggage storage or onboard restrooms found on larger coaches, it excels in creating a fun, energetic atmosphere for short to medium-length trips. Ultimately, the 18-passenger party bus is the preferred choice for groups who want to travel together and enjoy the ride just as much as the destination.

You should book your 18-passenger party bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best rates, especially if your event falls during peak seasons such as spring and summer wedding months, prom season, or around major local events and holidays. Everett hosts several large-scale events throughout the year—including concerts and sporting events at Angel of the Winds Arena, Silvertips hockey games, and regional festivals—that can significantly impact party bus availability and pricing across Snohomish County. Last-minute bookings may face limited vehicle options or higher prices due to increased demand, so reserving early not only guarantees you get the exact vehicle and amenities you want but also locks in your rate before seasonal price adjustments. If you’re planning travel during a known busy period or require multiple vehicles, consider booking even further in advance to avoid sold-out dates and to allow ample time for coordinating complex itineraries or special requests.
