Booked it for a group trip around Phoenix and it was so convenient. No parking, no caravanning, just one easy ride for all of us. Comfortable and clean, and booking was quick. We'll be back.

Since 2011, Party Bus Gilbert has helped thousands of groups move through the Phoenix metro — one of the fastest-growing regions in the country — without the headache of navigating the I-10, the Loop 101, or the US-60 during rush hour or event nights. Whether you need a 14-passenger Sprinter limo for a bridal party sweep through Arcadia or a fleet of 56-passenger charter buses to move a medical conference between the Phoenix Convention Center (100 N 3rd St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) and hotels in Tempe, we coordinate the whole thing with all-inclusive pricing and zero hidden costs.
Our 24/7 reservation team is a single call away, whether you're locking in a Fiesta Bowl run in December or scrambling to add a minibus for a last-minute birthday crawl through Roosevelt Row. We've coordinated field trips to the Desert Botanical Garden, corporate shuttles to the downtown sports corridor on Jefferson Street, and late-night pickups from Scottsdale's Entertainment District — so your group's itinerary, wherever it leads, is handled from first quote to final drop-off. Call 602-338-9085 or use our 30-second online quote tool to get started!
From compact 14-passenger Sprinter limos for a birthday dinner in Arcadia to full 56-passenger charter buses for a company-wide convention shuttle from the Tempe Town Lake corridor, Party Bus Gilbert's fleet scales with your group. We offer party buses, minibuses, Sprinter vans, and full-size charter buses — so you never pay for seats your group won't fill. Call 602-338-9085 or browse our fleet online for instant availability!
Party buses in the 15- to 50-passenger range come loaded for a Valley night out: full-length onboard bar, color-changing LED cabin lighting, flat-panel TVs, wraparound perimeter seating, and a Bluetooth sound system ready for your custom playlist before the first stop. Minibuses run powerful A/C, plush reclining seats, and overhead storage — a great fit for wedding guest shuttles between Scottsdale hotels and ceremony venues in Paradise Valley, or corporate transfers across the Camelback Corridor. Full-size charter buses add undercarriage luggage bays, onboard restrooms, WiFi, and power outlets at every row — built for longer hauls to Sedona, Tucson, or Flagstaff and for school groups hauling gear to the Arizona Science Center.
ADA-accessible vehicles are always available; just flag your needs when you book.

Party Bus Gilbert provides all-inclusive pricing online in under 30 seconds — you will know the exact cost before you ever commit. Phoenix party bus and charter bus rental prices work as follows: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $204–$378/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $244–$414/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day.
Rates shift based on the date, total hours, and mileage — a Saturday night bachelorette crawl through Old Town Scottsdale prices differently than a weekday corporate airport loop. Demand spikes predictably around Cactus League Spring Training (February–March), the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale (late January), and the Fiesta Bowl weekend at State Farm Stadium (late December). Lock in early for any of those windows.

The Phoenix metro stretches across more than 9,000 square miles of valley terrain, and moving a group between Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale, and downtown Phoenix without a dedicated vehicle means juggling rideshare wait times, surge pricing, and the frustration of showing up in fragments. Party Bus Gilbert handles all of it in a single reservation — one quote, one vehicle, one drop-off, one pickup.
Our reservation team is available 24/7/365, which matters when half your group lands at Phoenix Sky Harbor (3400 E Sky Harbor Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85034) on different connecting flights or when your after-party runs well past midnight on Scottsdale Road. Because pricing is all-inclusive and locked in before you book, there are no line-item surprises on the other side of the trip. We've run routes across this valley long enough to know which corridors turn ugly on event nights — the Van Buren Street approach to Chase Field during Diamondbacks home openers, the Loop 101/I-10 interchange heading toward State Farm Stadium for Cardinals games, and the Hayden Road approach to TPC Scottsdale during Phoenix Open week.
Rather than leaving that stress to whoever drew the short straw for designated driver duty, one Phoenix charter bus handles your whole group while everyone else idles at a red light. Call 602-338-9085 to get a quote in minutes.
Party Bus Gilbert coordinates group transportation for every occasion across Phoenix and the entire East Valley — from airport transfers and concert nights to corporate shuttles, prom, weddings, winery tours, and sporting events. Whatever your occasion, we have a vehicle scaled for your group and a plan ready. Call 602-338-9085 to get started today!

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (3400 E Sky Harbor Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85034) handles more than 50 million passengers a year across Terminal 3 and Terminal 4. Commercial bus and van pickup happens on the Arrivals/Baggage Claim level at each terminal's Ground Transportation curb. Have whoever's organizing the group call us once everyone has cleared baggage claim and is assembled at the agreed-upon arrivals door — don't call for the bus while stragglers are still at the carousel, because Sky Harbor enforces tight loading windows in the commercial lane.
Sky Harbor also runs the PHX Sky Train connecting the terminals to the 44th Street and Economy Lot stations, which works fine for a pair of travelers — but for a crew of 20 hauling convention gear or a wedding party with rolling bags, a charter bus rolling directly to the Ground Transportation curb beats three train connections and a shuttle ride every time. We also serve Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (6033 S Sossaman Rd, Mesa, AZ 85212) for groups flying Allegiant or other carriers into the East Valley. We highly recommend reviewing the official Sky Harbor ground transportation page before you land.
Call 602-338-9085 to book your Phoenix airport shuttle today!

Old Town Scottsdale is one of the most requested bachelorette destinations in the country — and for good reason. The Entertainment District along Scottsdale Road and 5th Avenue packs dozens of clubs, drag venues, rooftop bars, and late-night spots into a walkable strip that stays busy until 2 a.m. The catch: parking in the Old Town core on a Friday or Saturday night is a real ordeal, and rideshare surge pricing after midnight on Scottsdale Road routinely doubles.
Your group doesn't need to navigate either problem.
A Phoenix bachelorette party bus rental covers the full itinerary — rooftop cocktails at a spot like Jade Bar at The Sanctuary (5700 E McDonald Dr, Paradise Valley, AZ 85253), a club stop at Maya Day + Nightclub (7353 E Indian School Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85251), and a late run to Bottled Blonde (7340 E Shoeman Ln, Scottsdale, AZ 85251) — without anyone splitting into a second rideshare or drawing straws for who sobers up at 11 p.m. Our 15- to 50-passenger party buses bring a full bar, LED lighting, and Bluetooth sound for the ride between stops. Call 602-338-9085 now!

The Phoenix metro's large and growing Latino community has made quinceañera and Sweet 16 celebrations a cornerstone of the East Valley's event calendar, and a party bus arrival is one of the most memorable entrances a daughter can make. Our 15- to 50-passenger party buses are fully customizable — coordinate a color scheme, pre-load a playlist, and we can arrange vehicle options to match your theme. Whether the celebration heads to The Paseo Venue (250 W Rivulon Blvd, Gilbert, AZ 85297), a banquet hall along the South Mountain corridor, or a marquee reception space near Chandler Fashion Center, Party Bus Gilbert has the right vehicle and a plan.
For adult milestone birthdays heading to a steakhouse dinner at Bourbon Steak at the JW Marriott Scottsdale Camelback Inn (5402 E Lincoln Dr, Paradise Valley, AZ 85253) before a late night on Old Town Scottsdale's club strip, a party bus keeps the celebration running from pickup to last call — and nobody has to leave early to stay sober for the drive home. Call 602-338-9085 to plan your celebration!

Phoenix's concert and festival calendar fills fast, and getting to a show across the Valley's sprawling freeway grid is half the battle. Talking Stick Resort Arena (201 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) anchors the downtown circuit — official charter bus drop-off is on Jefferson Street, with the bus waiting on nearby surface streets during the performance. Ak-Chin Pavilion (2121 N 83rd Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85035) sits west of downtown off I-10, where limited on-site parking and a single entry road produce a post-show exit crawl that can stretch 45 minutes; a Phoenix concert party bus rental drops your group at the gate and picks everyone up at a pre-arranged spot, so the ride home is part of the experience rather than a parking-lot standstill.
Desert Diamond Arena (9400 W Maryland Ave, Glendale, AZ 85305) and the outdoor Arizona Financial Theatre (400 W Washington St, Phoenix, AZ 85003) round out the major circuit. For festival weekends — especially multi-day events at Rawhide or the Arizona State Fair at the State Fairgrounds (19th Ave and McDowell Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85009) — a party bus keeps the group together from pickup to final act and cuts out the designated-driver conversation entirely. Call 602-338-9085 for a free quote on Phoenix concert transportation!

Phoenix hosts some of the country's busiest convention and business event calendars — the Phoenix Convention Center (100 N 3rd St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) routinely draws 50,000-plus attendees for events including the annual Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction preview shuttles and the National Association of REALTORS Conference. Shuttling your staff or clients from hotels along Central Avenue or in the Tempe Town Lake corridor to the convention floor without confronting downtown street closures and garage queue times is exactly what a Phoenix corporate bus rental handles cleanly.
Charter bus drop-off at the Phoenix Convention Center uses the 3rd Street entrances between Washington and Monroe; the parking structure's clearance limits mean full-size coaches drop off at street level and wait nearby. For executive transfers between Sky Harbor and the Camelback Corridor office parks — the stretch from 24th Street to Scottsdale Road where many major regional employers cluster — a Sprinter van or minibus delivers the right look with WiFi, leather seating, and individual climate zones. Call 602-338-9085 to discuss contract rates and group logistics!

Whether your group is organizing a family reunion across multiple Valley locations, a church retreat heading north toward Sedona on I-17, or a fan group hitting three Cactus League ballparks in a single afternoon, a Phoenix private charter bus rental keeps the whole itinerary on one predictable track.
The Cactus League Spring Training season (February–March) draws 200,000-plus fans to ten ballparks across the Valley — including Camelback Ranch (10710 W Camelback Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85037), Salt River Fields (7555 N Pima Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85258), and Peoria Sports Complex (16101 N 83rd Ave, Peoria, AZ 85382) — and rideshare surge pricing on game days regularly runs 2–3x on the post-game rush. One private bus covers your full fan group for a flat rate while the rest of the crowd floods the Loop 101 on-ramps. The Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale (17020 N Hayden Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85255) in late January/early February draws 200,000+ across the week — the largest gallery of any PGA Tour event in the world — and parking fills by 9 a.m. on peak days.
Instead of splitting your group and paying separately for lot passes and surge pricing all day, one minibus handles everyone's arrival and departure for a single flat number. Call 602-338-9085 to plan your Phoenix private event transportation!

Prom season in the Phoenix metro — late April through mid-May — is the single busiest period for party bus bookings across Maricopa County. High schools in Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, Scottsdale, Tempe, and Phoenix all schedule proms within a tight six-week window, and demand spikes hard. For prom: book by December or expect premium pricing or no availability.
A typical 6-hour prom rental for 30 students — school pickup, a pre-prom photo stop at Papago Park or the Desert Botanical Garden, venue drop-off at a Scottsdale hotel ballroom, and an after-party return — runs $1,800–$2,200 all-inclusive when locked in 4–6 months early, but climbs to $2,800–$3,500+ if booked in the final two weeks before the date. Party Bus Gilbert works with parent committees and student groups across the East Valley to confirm pickup plans, coordinate multi-stop itineraries, and keep the night on schedule. Call 602-338-9085 today to secure your date!

Teachers and chaperones across Maricopa County rely on Party Bus Gilbert because we coordinate pickups and drop-offs at every major Phoenix-area school destination — no juggling tight parking lots with 30 students in tow. Whether it's a field trip to the Arizona Science Center (600 E Washington St, Phoenix, AZ 85004), a half-day at the Desert Botanical Garden (1201 N Galvin Pkwy, Phoenix, AZ 85008), or an excursion to the Musical Instrument Museum (4725 E Mayo Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85050) in North Scottsdale, our full-size charter buses carry the gear — sack lunches in undercarriage bays, backpacks in overhead storage, students in reclining seats with TV monitors queued up for the ride there.
For visits to the Phoenix Zoo (455 N Galvin Pkwy, Phoenix, AZ 85008) or the Heard Museum (2301 N Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85004), onboard restrooms on select vehicles mean no roadside stops on the way there or back. ADA-accessible vehicles are always available — just flag the requirement when booking. Call 602-338-9085 for school field trip bus rentals in Phoenix!

Getting a fan group to a Cardinals game at State Farm Stadium (1 Cardinals Dr, Glendale, AZ 85305) means fighting westbound I-10 traffic that backs up from the Camelback interchange all the way past the 43rd Avenue exit on a sold-out Sunday. The official rideshare pickup is in a designated lot that adds a significant walk post-game, and all stadium-adjacent parking passes must be purchased in advance — nothing sold on site. A Phoenix charter bus rental changes the equation: one vehicle, one pre-arranged drop near the commercial gate entrance, one flat rate split across the whole group.
Suns and Mercury games at Footprint Center (201 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) put 18,000-plus fans into downtown Phoenix on weeknights where metered street parking disappears by 6 p.m. and surface lots hit $30–$40 on playoff nights. Charter bus drop-off runs on Jefferson Street, steps from the arena entrance. For Diamondbacks games at Chase Field (401 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004), the bus waits in the downtown corridor while your group is inside — no hunting for your car in the garage after the final out.
Call 602-338-9085 for Phoenix sporting event transportation!

A Phoenix wedding shuttle means guests don't have to navigate the Valley's sprawling grid in formal wear — whether it's a loop between a Scottsdale hotel and a ceremony at Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village in Sedona, or between downtown Phoenix and a reception at The Phoenician (6000 E Camelback Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85251). Out-of-town guests renting cars and trying to find Paradise Valley venues on a Saturday evening in Arizona heat is exactly the kind of stress a good wedding shuttle removes from the equation.
Party Bus Gilbert has been coordinating wedding group transportation since 2011, and your timeline stays intact with clear pickup windows, scheduled departures, and one person to call from first quote through final drop-off. A 14-passenger Sprinter limo handles the bridal party on the wedding morning itself, while a minibus runs the guest shuttle loop all evening. For the bachelorette night in Old Town Scottsdale, a party bus gives your group a night they'll still be talking about at the one-year anniversary.
Call 602-338-9085 for a free Phoenix wedding transportation quote!

Arizona's wine country is closer than most Valley residents realize. The Verde Valley wine region — anchored by Cottonwood, about 90 minutes north of Phoenix via I-17 — is home to tasting rooms like Page Springs Cellars (1500 N Page Springs Rd, Cornville, AZ 86325) and Alcantara Vineyards (3445 S Grapevine Way, Camp Verde, AZ 86322). A day trip from the Valley with a charter bus means your group skips the high-desert mountain highway driving, stays together from first pour to last, and returns to Phoenix without anyone sweating the drive back on a winding stretch of 89A.
Closer in, the Phoenix craft brewery scene along Grand Avenue and in the Warehouse District — including Wren House Brewing (2125 N 24th St, Phoenix, AZ 85008) and Arizona Wilderness Brewing (201 E Roosevelt St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) — makes for an easy multi-stop pub crawl without the parking scramble between neighborhoods. Your group stays in one vehicle the whole evening, with no one on designated driver duty. Call 602-338-9085 for a free quote on Phoenix winery and pub crawl transportation!

Dawn Pickett
One of the better group decisions we've made. The ride was comfortable, the atmosphere was fun, and everything was on time around Phoenix. They were clear with me from the first call.
Brock Tanner
Used this for a celebration and it went perfectly. Roomy, clean, good sound, and they were patient when our group ran behind. Price was fair and clear. Made the night easy and fun.
Tonya Maddox
Got it for a big night out in Phoenix and it didn't disappoint. Everyone fit comfortably, the system was great, and we didn't have to think about anything but having fun. On time and easy to book.
Phoenix party bus rental prices vary based on vehicle size, the date, and how many hours you need. Here's the breakdown: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; 15–20 passenger party buses run $204–$378/hour; 20–30 passenger party buses run $244–$414/hour; 35–50 passenger party buses and minibuses run $294–$490/hour; and full-size 40–56 passenger charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day. Weekend and peak-season dates — Waste Management Phoenix Open, Cactus League Spring Training, and prom weekends — push demand and pricing higher.
The fastest way to get your exact number is to call 602-338-9085 for an all-inclusive quote in under 30 seconds, or pull one up instantly on our online tool. You will see the full price before you commit to anything.
State Farm Stadium (1 Cardinals Dr, Glendale, AZ 85305) routes commercial and charter buses through the Cardinal Drive corridor on the north side of the stadium. All event-day parking requires pre-purchased passes — none are sold on site — and the lots adjacent to the building fill hours before kickoff for Cardinals games and Fiesta Bowl dates. The official rideshare pickup area sits in a designated lot that requires a significant post-game walk; a charter bus waiting nearby and picking your group up at a pre-arranged exit point sidesteps that entirely.
We always recommend checking the official State Farm Stadium parking page to confirm commercial vehicle protocols for your specific event.
At Sky Harbor International Airport (3400 E Sky Harbor Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85034), commercial buses pick up from the Arrivals/Baggage Claim level curbside at Terminal 3 or Terminal 4 in the Ground Transportation zone. Once your full group has cleared baggage claim and is assembled at the agreed-upon arrivals door, call us and we'll bring the bus to the correct commercial lane. The key rule: get the group together first, then call — not the other way around.
Sky Harbor enforces loading time windows in the commercial area, and calling once everyone is actually together cuts out the scramble. If the layout is unfamiliar on arrival, the Ground Transportation desk inside the terminal can help direct your group to the correct pickup zone. See the official Sky Harbor ground transportation page before you land.
Yes. Chase Field (401 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) allows charter bus drop-off on Jefferson Street in front of the main gates, with the bus waiting on nearby downtown surface streets or in paid lots within two blocks during the game. The most straightforward approach is via Jefferson Street eastbound from 4th Avenue, where curbside passenger unloading is permitted.
Dedicated bus parking in the immediate vicinity runs $20–$30 per game at off-street lots and must be arranged in advance — the stadium's own adjacent garage has clearance limitations that steer full-size coaches to street-level staging. On Opening Day and sellout games, the surrounding blocks fill completely by early afternoon. Review the official Diamondbacks parking page for lot assignments before your visit.
Yes — and for groups of 15 or more, a charter bus is the most straightforward way to reach TPC Scottsdale (17020 N Hayden Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85255) during tournament week. The WM Phoenix Open runs in late January/early February and draws 200,000-plus fans across the week, making it the largest-attended PGA Tour event in the world. Surface parking surrounding the course fills by 9 a.m. on peak days, and the Scottsdale Road/Hayden Road approach becomes congested from mid-morning onward.
Tournament shuttles operate from remote lots, but coordinating a group of 20 across shuttle buses from separate lots is its own logistical challenge. A private charter bus from a central Phoenix or Scottsdale pickup location drops your group near the entrance and waits for a coordinated pickup after the round. Book transportation for Phoenix Open week at least 3–4 months in advance — Valley supply tightens quickly around that late-January date.
Check the official WM Phoenix Open transportation page for current shuttle and parking details.
For most Phoenix events outside peak windows, three to four weeks of lead time is workable. For prom season, the Waste Management Phoenix Open, Cactus League Spring Training, the Fiesta Bowl, or any College Football Playoff weekend at State Farm Stadium, that window should stretch to six months or more — demand in those periods regularly outpaces Valley supply, and last-minute bookings carry significant premium pricing or no availability in the vehicle size you need. For prom specifically: book by December.
We see East Valley and Phoenix prom dates fill in mid-winter every year, and groups that wait until March or April routinely find sharply higher rates or nothing left. Lock in your date now at 602-338-9085!
A Phoenix party bus itinerary covers some of the most iconic venues and attractions in the Southwest — from sports arenas and ballparks to botanical gardens and craft breweries. Below are six of our most-requested group destinations across the Valley of the Sun, with the operational details that matter on the ground.

Home to the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury since 1992, Footprint Center (201 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) holds 18,422 fans at the heart of downtown Phoenix. On playoff nights, the grid around Jefferson and 2nd Street fills fast — metered street parking disappears by 5:30 p.m., and surface lots in the immediate vicinity run $30–$40 per vehicle. Official charter bus drop-off is on Jefferson Street, right in front of the main gates, with buses waiting on nearby downtown surface streets during the game.
The METRO Light Rail stops at the Jefferson/1st Ave station a block away, but for a group of 20-plus, coordinating train timing through multiple rush-hour transfers is a headache a private party bus rental cuts out entirely. We recommend reviewing the official Footprint Center parking page before your visit.

Phone: (602) 379-7867

State Farm Stadium (1 Cardinals Dr, Glendale, AZ 85305) hosts the Arizona Cardinals NFL season, the Fiesta Bowl, and major college football playoff games, with a retractable roof and capacity exceeding 63,400. The westbound I-10 from central Phoenix turns into a reliable parking lot starting two hours before kickoff on sold-out Sunday games, and all stadium-adjacent lot passes must be purchased in advance — zero sold on site. Commercial bus drop-off is on Cardinal Drive on the north side of the building; the NW Valley streets around the Glendale Avenue and Loop 101 interchange back up in both directions from early afternoon.
A charter bus bypasses all of it. Check the State Farm Stadium parking page before your event day for current lot assignments and road closure information.

Phone: (623) 433-7101

Chase Field (401 E Jefferson St, Phoenix, AZ 85004) has been the home of the Arizona Diamondbacks since 1998 — a 48,519-seat retractable-roof ballpark with a swimming pool in right-center field and some of the most distinct sightlines in the National League. Regular season runs April through September, with weeknight first pitches typically at 6:40 p.m. Charter bus drop-off is on Jefferson Street at the main gate; the nearest bus staging runs on downtown surface lots within two blocks, arranged in advance at roughly $20–$30 per game.
Opening Day and any postseason date fills the surrounding downtown Phoenix grid by early afternoon — plan your approach time accordingly. The official D-backs parking page has current lot assignments and rate information.

The Desert Botanical Garden (1201 N Galvin Pkwy, Phoenix, AZ 85008) spans 140 acres in Papago Park, housing more than 50,000 desert plants and 380 rare or threatened species across five themed trail loops — open daily from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. (seasonally extended). It's one of Phoenix's premier school field trip destinations and hosts the annual Las Noches de las Luminarias holiday event (mid-November through early January), which draws 1,000-plus visitors per evening and fills parking to capacity by 5 p.m.
Group bus drop-off is on North Galvin Parkway at the main entrance, with bus staging available in the adjacent Papago Park surface lot. School groups should book guided programs at least two weeks in advance. For field trips, the bus's undercarriage bays hold coolers and backpacks so students can walk the trails without hauling their gear.
Check the DBG directions and parking page before your visit.

The Musical Instrument Museum (4725 E Mayo Blvd, Phoenix, AZ 85050) opened in 2010 near the SR-51/Loop 101 interchange in North Phoenix and quickly became one of the Valley's most distinctive group destinations — housing more than 15,000 instruments from 200 countries across five geographic galleries, plus a 300-seat Artist Studio for live performances. It's a standout school field trip destination for music programs and world cultures curriculum, and a strong add to any private tour day in the North Scottsdale corridor. Group bus drop-off is at the main entrance on Mayo Boulevard, with large-vehicle parking available in the adjacent surface lot.
School groups should book guided programs at least three weeks ahead. Admission runs $20 adults, $15 for youth 13–17, and $10 for children 4–12. See the MIM plan your visit page for current hours and group tour information.

TPC Scottsdale's Stadium Course (17020 N Hayden Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85255) hosts the Waste Management Phoenix Open every late January — the PGA Tour's largest-attended tournament in the world, drawing over 700,000 fans across the week and famously packing 20,000-plus spectators around the par-3 16th hole alone. Parking on the surrounding Hayden Road and Bell Road corridors fills completely by mid-morning on peak days; shuttle routes from remote lots run first-come. A charter bus or minibus carries your group from a hotel, office park, or Valley neighborhood directly to the tournament entrance — one vehicle, one flat rate, no gridlock on the Loop 101 approach.
For the tournament week in late January/early February, book transportation 2–3 months in advance. See the WM Phoenix Open transportation page for the current shuttle and parking plan.
