A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Cheer on the UNC Asheville Bulldogs at Kimmel Arena
When it comes to college basketball in the Blue Ridge Mountains, there is no place quite like Kimmel Arena at the Wilma M. Sherrill Center (1 University Heights, Asheville, NC 28804). As the home of the UNC Asheville Bulldogs, this state-of-the-art facility brings high-energy Big South Conference action to the heart of the city. Navigating the campus during home games can be a challenge, especially with limited parking near the arena and the winding roads of the university grounds. With Charter Bus Asheville, you can skip the hassle of coordinating multiple carpools and searching for elusive spots in the campus lots. We’ll provide a private shuttle service that drops your group off right at the front doors, ensuring you don’t miss a single tip-off or buzzer-beater.
Our fleet is perfectly suited for alumni groups, student organizations, and visiting teams alike. For smaller fan groups of 15 to 35, our minibuses offer a nimble and comfortable ride through the North Asheville neighborhoods. Larger rosters and booster clubs can utilize our 56-passenger full-size charter buses, which feature undercarriage storage for duffel bags and warm-up gear. While en route, your passengers can stay connected with fast onboard WiFi or review highlight reels on the flat-screen TVs. Choosing Charter Bus Asheville means your group arrives together, on time, and ready to show their Bulldog pride without the stress of campus traffic. Call us at 828-895-0230 to secure your UNCA gameday transportation today!
Experience Historic Baseball at McCormick Field
For more than a century, McCormick Field (30 Buchanan Pl, Asheville, NC 28801) has been a cornerstone of Asheville's sports identity. As the home of the Asheville Tourists, the High-A affiliate of the Houston Astros, this historic ballpark offers one of the most unique atmospheres in Minor League Baseball. However, the stadium’s location tucked into a hillside near downtown means that parking is notoriously difficult and traffic on Buchanan Place can become a bottleneck during popular "Thirsty Thursday" games or weekend matchups. Avoid the frustration of steep hills and crowded side streets by booking a private party bus or minibus with Charter Bus Asheville. We can drop your group curbside, allowing you to head straight to the concession stands for a famous "Moon Pie" or a local craft beer while your driver handles the logistics.
Renting a bus for a Tourists game is a home run for corporate outings, birthday parties, and youth baseball teams. Our vehicles offer powerful climate control to beat the humidity of a North Carolina summer, along with plush seating so you can relax before the first pitch. If you’re bringing a Little League squad for a day at the park, our buses provide ample space for equipment bags and coolers in the storage bays. We can also coordinate multi-stop itineraries, taking your group to dinner at a nearby South Slope brewery before the game and ensuring everyone has a comfortable, designated ride back to their hotel or home. With over 15 years of experience serving the Asheville community, we know the best loading zones to keep your trip moving smoothly.
High-Stakes Soccer with Asheville City SC at Memorial Stadium
Soccer fans in Western North Carolina know that the atmosphere at Memorial Stadium (32 Heisler Way, Asheville, NC 28801) is electric when Asheville City SC takes the pitch. Whether you’re supporting the men’s or women’s teams in the USL League Two or W League, "The Blues" draw dedicated crowds to this downtown venue. Located adjacent to Beaucatcher Mountain, the stadium offers incredible views but presents significant parking challenges for large groups. Rather than splitting up and paying for multiple rideshares that surge in price during match times, let Charter Bus Asheville keep your supporters’ group together. Our private event shuttles are the smartest way to navigate the narrow roads leading to the stadium and ensure your group arrives in time for the opening kickoff.
When you book a party bus or minibus for a soccer match, the celebration starts the moment you step on board. You can use the Bluetooth sound system to play your favorite chants and hype music while cruising through downtown. Our buses also offer plenty of room to store banners, drums, and tailgating gear, making us the perfect choice for organized fan clubs. If you are a visiting team traveling to Asheville for a tournament, our 56-passenger motorcoaches provide the professional environment athletes need to stay focused, with reclining seats and onboard restrooms to minimize stops. Since 2011, we have been the go-to provider for local and regional sports travel, offering transparent pricing and 24/7 support for every match on your schedule.
Professional Hockey and Arena Events at Harrah’s Cherokee Center
The Harrah’s Cherokee Center - Asheville (87 Haywood St, Asheville, NC 28801) is the city's premier indoor sports and entertainment hub. From hosting the Asheville Blue Ridge Bobcats hockey games to high-profile basketball tournaments and professional wrestling, this venue stays busy year-round. Located in the heart of the central business district, the arena is surrounded by one-way streets and parking decks that fill up quickly during major events. Skip the Midtown gridlock and the expense of downtown parking by choosing Charter Bus Asheville for your arena transportation. We provide efficient drop-off and pickup services that let your group focus on the action on the ice or the court, rather than the clock on a parking meter.
Our corporate-style minibuses and executive sprinter vans are popular choices for groups attending VIP events or company outings at the center. With leather seating and onboard power outlets, your attendees can stay productive or simply relax in luxury. For larger groups of hockey fans, a full-size charter bus offers a comfortable cabin where you can discuss the game’s best plays on the ride home. We also handle transportation for out-of-town trips to see the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh or the Charlotte Checkers, providing a seamless bridge between Asheville and the state's other major sports hubs.

Outdoor Endurance Events and The Asheville Marathon
Asheville is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts and endurance athletes, famously hosting events like the Asheville Marathon & Half at Biltmore Estate. Participating in these large-scale races requires significant coordination, as start lines and finish lines are often in different locations and road closures are common. Charter Bus Asheville specializes in marathon logistics, helping event organizers and private running clubs move athletes and spectators efficiently. We can set up a continuous shuttle loop between local hotels and the event site, ensuring that every runner makes it to their corral on time. Our buses offer a climate-controlled space where athletes can stretch out and hydrate before the race and a comfortable place to recover on the ride back.
Beyond marathons, we also provide transportation for cycling groups, hiking clubs, and rafting teams heading to the French Broad River or the Blue Ridge Parkway. Our full-size coaches feature massive undercarriage storage bays perfect for bicycles, kayaks, and heavy gear.

With world-class courses like the Omni Grove Park Inn (290 Macon Ave, Asheville, NC 28804) and the Asheville Municipal Golf Course, the region is a top destination for golf trips.

Charter Bus Asheville offers a luxurious and practical solution with our fleet of minibuses and motorcoaches. Our vehicles provide ample room for golf bags and accessories, ensuring your clubs are transported comfortably and won’t be cramped in a small trunk. With a private driver as your designated driver, your group can enjoy a round of drinks at the clubhouse after the 18th hole without any concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions About Asheville Sports Transportation
What types of buses are available for sports teams in Asheville?
Charter Bus Asheville offers a diverse fleet to accommodate sports groups of every size! For small teams or fan clubs of 15 to 35 people, our minibuses are an excellent, nimble option for navigating the city. For full rosters, coaching staff, and athletic departments, we provide 56-passenger full-size charter buses. These motorcoaches are the most popular choice for sports travel because they offer massive undercarriage storage bays for equipment bags, coolers, and jerseys, ensuring the cabin stays clear and comfortable. We also have sprinter vans for small groups of 10 to 14 people and party buses for fan groups who want to celebrate in style with wraparound seating and LED lighting. All of our vehicles are late-model, well-maintained, and equipped with the features you need for a successful trip.
Can we bring food and drinks on the bus for a tailgate?
Absolutely! We know that tailgating is a huge part of the gameday experience, and we want you to enjoy it. We recommend bringing cans and plastic containers rather than glass to avoid breakage. Our full-size charter buses have plenty of storage space in the luggage bays for large grills, folding tables, and tents, while the overhead bins inside the cabin are perfect for stashing smaller snacks and personal items. We just ask that you leave the bus in the same clean condition you found it!
How far in advance should I book a bus for a major Asheville event?
For major events in Asheville—like the International Balloon Fiesta, the Asheville Marathon, or peak Tourists baseball season—we strongly recommend booking your charter bus rental at least 6 to 9 months in advance. Asheville is a high-demand destination, and our fleet fills up quickly during the spring, fall, and summer months. Booking early not only guarantees that you get the specific type of bus and amenities you want, but it also helps you secure the best possible rates before seasonal demand increases. If you are planning a trip for a holiday weekend or a championship game, try to call as soon as your dates are finalized. While we can often accommodate last-minute requests depending on availability, the more notice you give us, the more options we can provide for your group!
What are the public transit options in Asheville compared to a private charter?
Asheville offers the ART (Asheville Redefines Transit) bus system, which serves many local neighborhoods on fixed routes and schedules. While the ART is a great resource for individuals, it is not ideal for large groups or teams with specific itineraries and equipment. Public transit requires everyone to have exact change or individual passes, and you are subject to set arrival times and transfers that can cause delays. In contrast, a private charter bus rental from Charter Bus Asheville provides door-to-door service on your schedule. You won’t have to worry about missing a transfer or splitting your group across different buses. Plus, public transit does not offer the storage space needed for sports gear or the premium amenities like WiFi and restrooms that make long-distance travel enjoyable. With a private bus, your group stays together and travels in total comfort.
