A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Experience Broadway and Symphonies at the Adler Theatre
The Adler Theatre is the crown jewel of Davenport's cultural scene. Located in the heart of downtown, this historic venue has been restoring the soul of the city since 1931. With its gold-leaf ceiling, crystal chandeliers, and Art Deco design, it is the premier destination for Broadway touring companies, the Quad City Symphony Orchestra, and headline comedians. Attending a show here is an event in itself, often requiring formal wear and a desire for a sophisticated night out. However, downtown parking near 3rd Street can be a challenge, especially when there is a sold-out performance of Hamilton or Wicked. The nearby RiverCenter parking ramps fill up quickly, leaving guests to walk several blocks in Iowa's unpredictable weather.
When you book a charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport , you skip the parking ramps entirely. Your driver can drop your group off right in front of the marquee at 136 E 3rd St, Davenport, IA 52801. While you find your seats and admire the architecture, your driver handles the logistics. After the final curtain call, your bus will be waiting to whisk you away to a post-show dinner at a local favorite like Me & Billy or Front Street Brewery. Whether you are organizing a school field trip for a matinee or a senior citizen group outing for the symphony, our fleet offers the comfort and accessibility you need.

Rock Out at the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds
Every summer, the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds transforms into the epicenter of entertainment in the Quad Cities. Known primarily for the Mississippi Valley Fair—one of the largest fairs in the Midwest—this venue hosts A-list country, rock, and pop acts that draw tens of thousands of fans. Beyond the fair, the grounds are used year-round for events ranging from car shows to private large-scale concerts. The sprawling nature of the fairgrounds means that parking can be a dusty, distant trek, often involving long walks carrying coolers and lawn chairs. If you are heading here with a large group of friends, family, or coworkers, the last thing you want is to get separated in the sea of cars off West Locust Street.
Rent a party bus or a full-size charter bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport to keep your group together. We can provide a vehicle with ample undercarriage storage for all your tailgating gear, folding chairs, and fair supplies. Your group can pre-game in the air-conditioned comfort of the bus, enjoying your favorite playlists over our premium sound systems before heading into the concert. For corporate groups attending fair days, a shuttle bus rental ensures your employees arrive safely and return home without the liability of driving after enjoying the fair's famous beverage tents. We serve the fairgrounds regularly and know exactly how to navigate the entry gates for a smooth arrival.

Catch Big Names at the Vibrant Arena at The Mark
While technically located just across the river in Moline, Illinois, the Vibrant Arena at The Mark (formerly the TaxSlayer Center) is the primary arena venue for the entire Quad Cities metropolitan area. It is where the biggest names in music—from Elton John to Luke Combs—stop on their world tours. It is also home to the Quad City Steamwheelers (arena football) and the Quad City Storm (hockey). Navigating the I-74 bridge traffic and finding parking in the lots surrounding River Drive can be one of the most stressful parts of attending an event here. Surge pricing on rideshares after a concert can also be astronomical.
Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport makes crossing the Mississippi River a breeze. We can pick your group up from any location in Davenport—be it a hotel, a corporate office, or a centralized meeting spot—and transport you directly to the arena's drop-off zone. A private charter bus rental allows you to enjoy the excitement of the event without the frustration of gridlock. If you are planning a group outing for a hockey game, our buses have plenty of room for team spirit gear. For concert-goers, a party bus rental is the ultimate way to start the night, complete with LED lighting and AUX/Bluetooth capabilities to blast the artist’s discography on the way to the show.

Intimate Vibes at River Music Experience (RME)
For music lovers who prefer a more intimate, acoustic, or blues-centric atmosphere, the River Music Experience (RME) in downtown Davenport is a must-visit. Located inside the historic Redstone Building, the RME features the Redstone Room, a club-style venue that hosts incredible local talent and touring roots, blues, and rock artists. It is a vital part of Davenport's identity as a music city. Because it is located right on Main Street, parking is limited to street spots and nearby ramps, which can be tricky on weekends when downtown is buzzing.
Booking a minibus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport is the perfect solution for a night out at the RME. A 20- or 25-passenger minibus is nimble enough to navigate the tight downtown corners while providing plenty of space for your group. This is an ideal option for bachelor or bachelorette parties, birthday celebrations, or corporate team-building nights. Your driver can drop you off right at the entrance to the Redstone Building, wait nearby while you enjoy the show and perhaps a drink at the bar, and then be ready to pick you up the moment you step outside. No waiting for taxis, no walking in the cold, just safe, reliable transportation.

Celebrate History at the Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Jazz Festival
Davenport is the hometown of jazz legend Bix Beiderbecke, and every year the city honors his legacy with the Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Jazz Festival. This event draws jazz aficionados from all over the world to enjoy traditional jazz music, history, and community. The festival typically takes place at various venues, including the Rhythm City Casino Resort, and involves a weekend full of music. For jazz clubs, senior living communities, or historical societies traveling to Davenport for the festival, coordinating travel for multiple days can be a logistical headache.
Let Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport handle your festival logistics. We can arrange a shuttle service that operates on a continuous loop between your hotel and the festival venues, ensuring that your group never misses a set. Our motorcoaches are designed for comfort, featuring reclining seats and onboard restrooms—perfect for older guests or those who want to relax between performances. We can also organize transportation for the famous Bix 7 Road Race, providing athlete shuttles to the starting line and finish line pickups. With our help, you can focus on the music and the history, not the parking.

Gaming and Entertainment at Rhythm City Casino Resort
Rhythm City Casino Resort isn't just for gambling; it is a premier entertainment destination located in the northern part of Davenport. The Event Center at Rhythm City hosts a variety of concerts, comedy shows, and tribute bands throughout the year. It is a fantastic venue for groups looking for an all-in-one night out that includes dinner, a show, and some time on the gaming floor. Since it is located off Elmore Avenue near I-80 and I-74, it is a popular hub for visitors coming from all directions.
Rent a charter bus for your group's casino night to ensure everyone travels responsibly. Alcohol is often a part of the casino and concert experience, and having a driver means no one in your group has to sit out the fun to be the designated driver. We offer party bus rentals that can set the mood before you even arrive, as well as executive shuttles for corporate groups hosting clients at the resort. Whether you are bringing a group of 15 or 50, we will ensure your arrival is as impressive as the venue itself.

Local Flavor at the Capitol Theatre
The Capitol Theatre is another historic gem in Davenport, offering a unique setting for live music, movies, and private events. This restored theater provides a nostalgic backdrop for concerts, often featuring indie bands, rock groups, and community events. It is a favorite among locals who appreciate the vintage vibe and excellent acoustics. Located in the downtown area, it shares the same parking constraints as the Adler, making group transport a smart choice.
For wedding parties or private events hosting a reception at the Capitol Theatre, Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport provides seamless shuttle services. We can transport your guests from local hotels directly to the theater, ensuring that everyone arrives on time for the curtain call or the grand entrance. Our fleet includes pristine white or black buses to match the elegance of your event.

When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Davenport, you are renting the bus for a specific block of time. If your concert or event runs longer than expected, we can usually accommodate the extra time, provided it does not conflict with the driver's legal service hours regulations. Additional hourly charges may apply for the extended time. We recommend building a little buffer time into your itinerary when booking to account for encores or traffic.
