40 Passenger Party Bus

Every 40-passenger party bus comes equipped with wraparound leather or vinyl seating, multiple flat-screen TVs (including a large main monitor), DVD/Blu-ray player, HDMI/VGA inputs, and a premium sound system with Bluetooth, AUX, and USB connectivity. There are built-in beverage stations or wet bars, color-changing LED lighting throughout the ceiling and floor, mirrored ceiling panels, and either hardwood or custom vinyl flooring designed for dancing. Additional features include powerful dual-zone HVAC, tinted windows for privacy, USB charging ports at every seat, optional Wi-Fi, and a rear luggage area or storage compartments for bags and equipment. This is one of the most fully loaded and versatile party buses available anywhere in the region.

The cost to rent a 40-passenger party bus typically ranges from $200 to $400+ per hour on weekdays, $220 to $450+ per hour on weekends, and $1,400–$2,600 per day. Your quote includes the bus itself, a driver, and gratuity, but does not cover additional expenses such as parking passes at venues (which you must purchase separately), tolls, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Please note that these rates are estimates and actual pricing may be significantly higher depending on availability and location. To get real-time pricing, contact us directly by phone or use our online quote tool. We are committed to providing transparent, all-inclusive pricing so you know exactly what to expect before you book.

A 40-passenger party bus offers more seating capacity and a larger interior space compared to smaller minibuses or standard charter buses, making it ideal for bigger groups who want to travel together in a single vehicle. Unlike traditional charter buses, which have forward-facing seats and a more formal layout, the party bus features wraparound seating, open floor space, and upgraded entertainment systems designed for socializing and celebrating. It provides many of the same amenities as our largest party buses—such as TVs, sound systems, lighting, and beverage stations—but in a slightly more compact and maneuverable package that can navigate city streets and tight venues more easily. This size is perfect for mid-size weddings, corporate outings, or multi-family trips where you need room for everyone without stepping up to the absolute largest vehicle in the fleet. It strikes a balance between capacity, comfort, and cost-effectiveness, offering a versatile option for a wide range of events.

You should book your 40-passenger party bus as far in advance as possible—ideally three to six months before your event—especially if your date falls during peak season or coincides with a major local event. Availability is extremely limited in the spring and summer months due to wedding season, high school proms, and graduation ceremonies at venues like Lehman College and Fordham University. Large events such as the New York City Marathon, Bronx Week, and major concerts at Yankee Stadium or the Barclays Center also put additional strain on the regional fleet. If your trip overlaps with any of these events or takes place on a holiday weekend, buses may sell out completely or only be available at premium rates. Last-minute bookings are sometimes possible but will limit your choice of vehicles and could result in higher prices. Once you have your date set, call us right away to lock in your reservation and ensure you get the exact vehicle you want.
