The bus made our outing in Margate feel like a real occasion. Comfortable, clean, and the lighting was a fun touch. Booking was simple and they were great about confirming everything ahead of time.

Party Bus Rental Parkland has been coordinating group transportation across Broward County since 2011 — and Margate sits right at the heart of the area we know best. Whether your group is heading south on the Turnpike toward Miami, west on Sample Road toward Sunrise, or north up I-95 toward Palm Beach, we take care of the logistics so your crew can focus on the celebration. We give you all-inclusive pricing in under 30 seconds online — no hidden costs, no surprises — and our reservation team is available 24/7/365 to work out every pickup window, drop point, and itinerary detail.
From a 14-passenger Sprinter limo for a bridal party run from Margate to a Coral Springs venue, to a full 56-passenger charter bus shuttling employees from the company campus to a team retreat, we match every group to the right vehicle size so you never pay for seats you do not actually need. Since 2011 we have coordinated thousands of trips — school field trips to the Museum of Discovery and Science, bachelorette pub crawls along Las Olas Boulevard, and fan groups heading to Dolphins games at Hard Rock Stadium. One call, one plan, one flat rate.
Call 754-290-8870 any time to get started.
Our network of vehicles covers every group size in Margate: 14-passenger Sprinter limos, 15- to 50-passenger party buses, 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, and 40- to 56-passenger charter buses. ADA-accessible vehicles are always available — just let us know before your trip date. Browse our full fleet or call 754-290-8870 for instant availability.
For groups wanting a night-out vibe on the ride itself, our party buses come loaded with a full-length bar, color-changing LED lighting, Bluetooth sound, flat-panel TVs, and wraparound perimeter seating. Minibuses keep it practical and comfortable — powerful A/C and plush reclining seats for corporate transfers, wedding guest loops, or school field trips across Broward County. Full-size charter buses step it up further: reclining seats, climate control, overhead storage bins, WiFi, power outlets at every row, a PA system, an onboard restroom, and massive undercarriage luggage bays — the right call for long hauls down to Miami or up to Orlando with gear, luggage, or presentation equipment in tow.
Whatever the trip calls for, we match the vehicle to the occasion.

Coordinating a group trip in Broward County without a bus is a genuine headache. Sample Road backs up through Coral Springs and Margate every Friday evening. The stretch of I-95 between Pompano Beach and Fort Lauderdale is one of the most congested corridors in South Florida during events at Amerant Bank Arena or Hard Rock Live.
Parking at FLL costs $3 every 20 minutes in the short-term garage. Rideshare surge pricing after a Panthers overtime game can hit 3–4x normal rates before the final buzzer even sounds. A Margate party bus rental from Party Bus Rental Parkland solves every one of those problems in a single booking.
Our 24/7 reservation team knows the Broward County road network — which lots at Amerant Bank Arena open first, which approach roads close around Hard Rock Stadium on Dolphins game days, and how long the Sample Road corridor actually takes at 6 PM on a Friday. You get exact pricing upfront, the right vehicle for your group size, and a clear plan from pickup to drop-off. No caravan coordination.
No parking scramble. No one drawing straws over who stays sober. Since 2011, we have handled every occasion from Margate elementary school field trips to corporate conference shuttles, and we are ready for yours.
Call 754-290-8870 today.
Party Bus Rental Parkland coordinates group transportation for every occasion across Margate and all of Broward County — from airport transfers at FLL and concert shuttles to Amerant Bank Arena, to wedding guest loops, prom nights, school field trips, and bachelorette crawls along Las Olas. Whatever brings your group together, we have a vehicle and a plan ready. Call 754-290-8870 to get your group moving!

Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) (100 Terminal Dr, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33315) sits roughly 8 miles south of Margate — close enough that it feels simple, until you factor in a dozen group members landing across different terminals, bags stacking up at Baggage Claim, and the Terminal 1 and Terminal 3 commercial pickup zones that require exactly the right timing to keep buses moving. FLL has a Charter/Group Transportation pickup area on the Lower Level Arrivals curb of each terminal — your group coordinator contacts our team once everyone is together with luggage, and the bus moves from the staging area to the right curb. No hunting for the right rideshare lane, no scrambling across the Rental Car Center connector.
We also handle long-haul runs to Miami International Airport (MIA) for international departures, and we cover cruise transfers to PortMiami when your group is embarking on a sailing out of Terminals A, B, or AA. For FLL pickups, we always recommend reviewing the official FLL ground transportation page before your arrival to confirm current commercial staging zones. Call 754-290-8870 to book your Margate airport shuttle today.

The bachelor and bachelorette scene runs strong across Broward County, and Margate sits in a perfect position to hit every stop without anyone worrying about how to get home. A night out might kick off with dinner along Atlantic Boulevard in Margate, move south to the bar scene in Wilton Manors along Wilton Drive, hit the clubs and rooftop bars in downtown Fort Lauderdale on Las Olas Boulevard, and close out at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood (1 Seminole Way, Hollywood, FL 33314) — open until 4 AM most nights, with no shortage of nightlife options inside the complex.
With a Margate bachelorette party bus rental, nobody draws straws for who stays sober. Our 15- to 50-passenger party buses come with a full-length bar, color-changing LED lighting, and premium Bluetooth sound to keep the energy up from the first pickup to the last drop-off. We build the custom schedule around your stops — tell us where the night starts and where it ends, and we handle every mile in between.
Call 754-290-8870 to plan your Margate bachelorette night!

Margate and the surrounding Broward communities have a strong tradition of quinceañera and Sweet 16 celebrations, and a party bus arrival at the venue is one of the most memorable moments the guest of honor can have. Our fleet covers every aesthetic — pre-load a custom playlist, coordinate a color scheme with the bus interior lighting, and we can accommodate white, black, or silver bus options to match your theme.
Popular venues in the area include reception halls along State Road 7 in Margate and Coconut Creek, banquet spaces in Coral Springs, and larger event facilities near the Sawgrass Mills corridor in Sunrise. For adult milestone birthdays heading into Fort Lauderdale for a dinner on Las Olas or a night at the Seminole Hard Rock, a Margate birthday party bus keeps the whole group in one place from the first pickup to the last drop-off. No one calls a rideshare, no one gets separated, no one ends the night stranded.
Call 754-290-8870 to plan your celebration!

Broward County's concert calendar is one of the strongest in South Florida, and getting to the big shows without a bus means fighting the parking scramble every time. Amerant Bank Arena (1 Panther Pkwy, Sunrise, FL 33323) sits about 5 miles west of Margate on University Drive, and its surface lots fill up fast on sold-out nights — concert drop-off happens on Panther Parkway, steps from the main entrance on the east side of the arena. Hard Rock Live Hollywood (1 Seminole Way, Hollywood, FL 33314) is roughly 12 miles south of Margate off I-95 at Stirling Road, and its dedicated bus drop zone sits along Seminole Way near the venue entrance.
The Broward Center for the Performing Arts (201 SW 5th Ave, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312) pulls in touring Broadway productions and major artists all season, with charter bus drop-off on SW 5th Avenue directly in front of the Au-Rene Theater entrance.
A Margate concert bus rental keeps your crew together from the first song to the last encore, without anyone calling a rideshare during post-show surge pricing. Our party buses come with a full bar, LED lighting, and Bluetooth sound to carry the energy from Margate straight through the venue doors. Call 754-290-8870 to lock in your concert night.

Corporate groups moving between Margate and the Broward County business corridor deal with a predictable problem: the Florida Turnpike and I-95 both slow down between Sunrise and Fort Lauderdale during morning and afternoon rush, and even a 10-mile corporate transfer can stretch to 45 minutes with no predictability. A Margate corporate bus rental takes that variable out of the equation entirely.
We shuttle staff between corporate campuses in Margate, Coral Springs, and Coconut Creek and meeting venues at the Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center (1950 Eisenhower Blvd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316) — charter bus drop-off uses the Eisenhower Boulevard entrance on the north side of the building, with dedicated oversized vehicle access off SE 17th Street. Onboard WiFi and power outlets at every row mean your team arrives focused, not frazzled. For recurring employee shuttle routes between a Margate headquarters and a Fort Lauderdale office, we coordinate daily loops on a fixed schedule.
Call 754-290-8870 to discuss corporate shuttle contracts and group rates.

Family reunions, church retreats, milestone anniversaries, holiday parties — whenever a Margate group has somewhere to be together, we have a vehicle to get them there. A private charter bus or minibus rental keeps everyone on the same schedule without juggling a five-car caravan across Broward County back roads.
The Tortuga Music Festival on Fort Lauderdale Beach draws massive crowds each spring along A1A, where beachside parking disappears hours before gates open and rideshare demand spikes for the entire weekend. A private bus drops your group at the Fort Lauderdale Beach Park access points and picks everyone up at an agreed time — no parking math, no surge pricing scramble. The Seminole Tribal Fair & Pow-Wow in Hollywood and the Lauderdale Air Show over Fort Lauderdale Beach are two other annual events that turn Broward County roads into a logistical puzzle.
One flat bus rate keeps your private group together and on time, whatever the occasion. Call 754-290-8870 and we will build a plan around your itinerary.

Prom season in Broward County runs late April through May, and the demand for party buses and minibuses spikes across the entire metro within a narrow six-week window. High schools in Margate, Coconut Creek, and Coral Springs all hold their proms inside that same stretch — and once the calendar fills, it fills. For prom: book by December or expect premium pricing or no availability.
A typical Margate prom rental runs 5–6 hours: school or home pickup, a photo stop at a waterfront park or local landmark, venue drop-off at a hotel ballroom, and a post-event return. Booked 4–6 months early, that itinerary typically prices between $1,800 and $2,200 all-inclusive; book it two weeks out and you are looking at $2,800 or more — if a vehicle is still available. Party Bus Rental Parkland coordinates with parent committees and student groups across Broward County every prom season.
Call 754-290-8870 today to secure your date.

Teachers and administrators across Margate-Coconut Creek District schools trust Party Bus Rental Parkland for student group transportation throughout Broward County. A private charter bus cuts out the coordination headache of parents driving, provides a climate-controlled cabin with reclining seats and overhead storage, and keeps all students together from the school's front loop to the destination and back.
Popular field trip destinations from Margate include the Museum of Discovery and Science (401 SW 2nd St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312), which has dedicated school group bus unloading on the Andrews Avenue side; Everglades Holiday Park (21940 Griffin Rd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33332) for airboat and wildlife programs; and Calypso Cay Waterpark (3600 Powerline Rd, Pompano Beach, FL 33073) for end-of-year trips. For longer drives to Palm Beach or Miami, select vehicles come with onboard restrooms and TV monitors to keep students settled. ADA-accessible buses are always available — just flag that need when you call.
Call 754-290-8870 for school field trip bus rentals in Margate.

Broward County sports fans have no shortage of destinations — and every one of them comes with a parking situation that punishes late arrivals. Amerant Bank Arena (1 Panther Pkwy, Sunrise, FL 33323) is the closest major venue to Margate at just 5 miles west, home to the Florida Panthers. Surface lots around the arena open 90 minutes before puck drop and fill quickly on sold-out Panthers nights and concert dates — official charter and bus drop-off is on Panther Parkway on the arena's east face, a short walk to the main gates.
A Margate party bus or charter bus rental to Amerant Bank Arena skips the $20–$30 lot entirely.
For Miami Dolphins games at Hard Rock Stadium (347 Don Shula Dr, Miami Gardens, FL 33056), the stadium's rideshare pickup sits in Lot 44 at Betty T. Ferguson Recreational Complex — a 25-minute walk from the gates after the final whistle. A charter bus drops your group at the NW corner of the stadium, steps from the gates. Miami Heat fans heading to Kaseya Center (601 Biscayne Blvd, Miami, FL 33132) can use the official bus drop-off at Gate 3 on NE 8th Street.
Call 754-290-8870 to book your Margate sporting event transportation!

Planning a wedding in Broward County means managing guests arriving from different hotels, navigating ceremony-to-reception transfers across unfamiliar roads, and making sure nobody in formalwear walks three blocks in the South Florida heat. A Margate wedding shuttle service from Party Bus Rental Parkland handles every leg of that day with staged departures, confirmed pickup windows, and a single point of contact from your first quote to final drop-off.
Popular wedding and reception venues in the area include Signature Grand (6900 State Road 84, Davie, FL 33317), Orchid Grove in Pompano Beach, and waterfront reception sites along the Intracoastal in Fort Lauderdale where valet fills up fast and guest parking is minimal. A minibus or charter bus running continuous loops between your hotel block and the venue keeps every guest on time without anyone circling for a parking spot. For the bridal party, our 14-passenger Sprinter limo handles the morning detail — hair, photos, ceremony arrival — in style.
Call 754-290-8870 for a free Margate wedding transportation quote!

South Florida's brewery and bar scene has grown into a genuine weekend draw, and Margate is an easy starting point for a crawl through Broward County's best taprooms and cocktail bars. A Margate winery tour and pub crawl party bus keeps your group together at every stop — no splitting into separate cars, no one stuck staying sober behind the wheel, no calling five different rideshares at midnight.
Popular stops in the circuit include Invasive Species Brewing (2520 N Andrews Ave, Pompano Beach, FL 33064) for creative small-batch pours; Funky Buddha Brewery (1201 NE 38th St, Oakland Park, FL 33334), one of Florida's most decorated craft breweries with a large tap room just south of Commercial Boulevard; and Tarpon River Brewing (280 SW 6th St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301) in downtown Fort Lauderdale for riverfront pints before hitting the Las Olas bar strip. Round out the night at Flagler Village along N Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdale for cocktail bars and nightlife. Our party buses include a built-in bar, LED lighting, and premium sound — the party does not pause between stops.

The bus made our outing in Margate feel like a real occasion. Comfortable, clean, and the lighting was a fun touch. Booking was simple and they were great about confirming everything ahead of time.

Couldn't have gone better. On time, clean, and comfortable, with a sound system that actually delivered. The pricing was honest and matched the quote. Our whole group already wants to do it again.
Marguerite T.
Such a smooth experience overall. They were patient with all my questions during booking and showed up exactly when promised. The bus had plenty of room and everyone was comfortable the whole ride.
Nikolai D.
Great value for the size of our group. We all rode together instead of scattering across cars, and the ride between stops was honestly part of the fun. Clean bus, fair price, no complaints at all.
Margate party bus rental prices depend on vehicle size, the date, and how long you need the bus. Here are the current ranges: 14-passenger Sprinter limos run $170–$344/hour; small party buses (15–20 passengers) run $204–$378/hour; mid-size party buses (20–30 passengers) run $244–$414/hour; large party buses and minibuses (35–50 passengers) run $294–$490/hour; and full-size charter buses run $150–$300/hour or $1,200–$2,500/day. Peak dates — prom season, Panthers playoffs, Tortuga Music Festival weekend — push toward the top of those ranges.
Call 754-290-8870 for an all-inclusive quote on your specific date, or use our online tool for pricing in under 30 seconds.
Charter buses and oversized vehicles drop off on Panther Parkway on the east side of Amerant Bank Arena (1 Panther Pkwy, Sunrise, FL 33323), directly in front of the main entrance. Surface lot parking around the arena requires pre-purchased passes on major event nights — lots open 90 minutes before game time and sell out on sold-out Panthers dates and large concerts. We recommend reviewing the official Amerant Bank Arena parking page before your event to confirm current lot availability and approach routes.
A bus drops your group at the door while everyone else is still circling for a $25 parking spot.
At FLL, charter buses wait in the commercial holding area and move to the Lower Level Arrivals curb at the designated ground transportation zone for each terminal once your full group is together with luggage. Terminal assignments vary by airline — your group coordinator calls our team from Baggage Claim once everyone has collected their bags, and the bus moves into position at your terminal's commercial pickup zone. Do not call until your entire group is ready: FLL's Arrivals Level has limited staging time for oversized vehicles, so timing the move correctly keeps everything smooth.
We also recommend reviewing the official FLL ground transportation page before you land.
Broward County's peak demand window runs April through May for prom season, when high schools across Margate, Coconut Creek, Coral Springs, and Tamarac all compete for the same pool of buses inside a six-week stretch. Florida Panthers playoff runs — which typically fall April through June — add another surge layer, as fan groups heading to Amerant Bank Arena book quickly once the bracket is set. Tortuga Music Festival in Fort Lauderdale (typically April) and graduation season (May–June) add more pressure.
Outside those windows, 2–4 weeks of lead time is usually workable — but for prom, playoffs, or festival weekends, book 4–6 months out. The earlier you call, the better your options.
Yes. Full-size charter buses in our network come with large undercarriage luggage bays that handle everything from cruise baggage and beach gear to event supplies, folding tables, and presentation equipment. Overhead storage bins cover the carry-on items.
If your group is heading to FLL for a cruise departure or moving equipment for a corporate event at the Fort Lauderdale Convention Center, a 40–56 passenger charter bus is the right fit. Tell us what you are hauling when you call and we will confirm the right vehicle for your load. Call 754-290-8870 with your details.
For most events, booking 3–6 months ahead locks in the best vehicle selection and pricing. That lead time matters most for prom season (book by December), Panthers playoff runs, and Tortuga Music Festival weekend — all three see significant demand spikes that empty the available vehicle pool fast. For regular weekend outings, birthday nights, or smaller corporate transfers, 2–4 weeks is usually workable.
For a wedding, 6–9 months out is the standard lead time to secure the right vehicle for your guest count and itinerary. Call 754-290-8870 as soon as your date is confirmed — the earlier you book, the more flexibility you have on vehicle type and pickup time.
A Margate party bus itinerary can reach some of South Florida's best venues, arenas, beaches, and entertainment districts without your group ever worrying about parking or navigation. Here are six destinations Margate groups hit most often — with the logistics detail that actually matters when you arrive.

Home of the Florida Panthers since 1998, Amerant Bank Arena holds 19,250 fans and sits just 5 miles west of Margate on Panther Parkway off University Drive — making it the closest major sports and concert venue to Margate. Surface parking lots open 90 minutes before game time and charge $20–$30 per space on major event nights, with the closest lots filling first. Charter and oversized bus drop-off is on the east face of the building on Panther Parkway, steps from the main entrance.
After a sold-out Panthers overtime game, rideshare surge pricing kicks in fast. A Margate charter bus drops your group at the door and picks everyone up when the final horn sounds. We recommend checking the official arena parking page before game day for current lot assignments.
Address: 1 Panther Pkwy, Sunrise, FL 33323
Phone: (954) 835-7000

Hard Rock Live Hollywood delivers mid-size concerts, comedy shows, and touring acts in an intimate 6,500-seat setting inside the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino campus — about 12 miles south of Margate off I-95 at Stirling Road. The venue sits inside the casino complex, where valet and surface parking fill quickly on show nights and rideshare pickup backs up across the entrance boulevard. Charter bus drop-off uses Seminole Way near the venue's main entrance on the west side of the entertainment complex.
The casino floor, restaurants, and bars open until late — making this a natural multi-stop night out for Margate groups who want to catch a show and keep going after. Check the Hard Rock Live Hollywood event calendar before you book to match your bus date to the show lineup.
Address: 1 Seminole Way, Hollywood, FL 33314
Phone: (954) 797-5531

The Broward Center for the Performing Arts is Broward County's flagship theater venue — a 2,700-seat main stage (Au-Rene Theater) that pulls in touring Broadway productions, major concert artists, and residency shows year-round. It sits on the New River in downtown Fort Lauderdale, about 10 miles southeast of Margate. Parking in the adjacent garage fills on Broadway run nights and major concerts, and the surrounding Riverwalk streets go quickly on weekend evenings.
Charter bus drop-off is on SW 5th Avenue directly in front of the Au-Rene Theater entrance — no walking across downtown, no hunting for the garage entrance. After the performance, the Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk district and Las Olas Boulevard are steps away for dinner or drinks, making this a natural two-stop evening for Margate groups. Review the official parking and directions page before your visit.
Address: 201 SW 5th Ave, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33312
Phone: (954) 462-0222

Sawgrass Mills is one of the largest outlet and retail malls in the United States — 2.4 million square feet of shopping spread across a massive area on Sunrise Boulevard, about 8 miles west of Margate. The mall draws shoppers from across South Florida and out-of-state visitors looking for outlet pricing on premium brands, which means the parking lots along the outer ring can stretch 20 minutes of walking distance from the main entrances on a busy Saturday. Charter buses have dedicated oversized vehicle drop-off at the main Cactus Jack's entrance on the north side, putting your group steps from the mall's primary entrance cluster.
For corporate shopping outings, family group trips, or quinceañera shopping excursions, a Margate minibus rental keeps the group together and cuts out the parking walk entirely. The adjacent The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass adds even more brands to the loop.
Address: 12801 W Sunrise Blvd, Sunrise, FL 33323
Phone: (954) 846-2300

Fort Lauderdale Beach (off A1A between Sunrise Boulevard and SE 17th Street, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316) and Las Olas Boulevard form the heart of the Fort Lauderdale nightlife and beach scene — about 12 miles southeast of Margate. On a Friday or Saturday night, metered parking along A1A fills well before 9 PM, the Las Olas Boulevard valet lines back up, and rideshare demand spikes after midnight when bars close. A Margate party bus drops your group at the beach or the first Las Olas stop and the bus waits nearby, so there is no parking scramble at every new destination.
Popular stops include bars and restaurants along Las Olas from SE 3rd Avenue to the Intracoastal, beach bars along A1A at Sunrise Boulevard, and the rooftop scene further south toward SE 17th Street. For Tortuga Music Festival in April, Fort Lauderdale Beach Park becomes a massive ticketed venue — a bus is the only way to avoid the A1A closure and rideshare surge that comes with 30,000+ attendees.
Address: Fort Lauderdale Beach Park, 100 N Birch Rd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33304

The Museum of Discovery and Science is Broward County's premier science and nature museum — a 90,000-square-foot facility with an IMAX theater, live animal habitats, a replica Everglades ecosystem, and interactive exhibits designed for students K–12 through adult groups. It sits in downtown Fort Lauderdale about 10 miles from Margate, making it one of the most popular field trip destinations for Margate-Coconut Creek schools. Charter bus unloading uses the Andrews Avenue side of the building, with group entry through the designated school arrival entrance.
Buses wait on Andrews Avenue or the adjacent Broward Boulevard corridor during the visit. The museum opens at 10 AM daily and closes at 5 PM on weekdays — early arrival is recommended for school groups to avoid the public admission rush. Sack lunches store easily in undercarriage bays for outdoor picnic use on the plaza.
Reserve school programs 3–4 weeks ahead through the museum's group sales team.
