40 Passenger Party Bus Rental
Forty seats, one flat route, and zero arguments about who's navigating the French Quarter on a Saturday night. Party Bus in New Orleans gives your group access to a 40-passenger party bus built for exactly the kind of occasion New Orleans is famous for — Mardi Gras parades along St. Charles Avenue, crawfish boils that turn into full bachelorette circuits through the Marigny, or a Saints pregame that starts in Metairie and finishes at the tailgate lots on Poydras Street. Skip the convoy of rideshares and the post-event search for a sober ride home. Call 504-497-9530 or use our online quote tool to lock in your date in under 30 seconds.

More About The 40 Passenger Party Bus
A 40-passenger party bus hits the sweet spot between a cramped minibus and an oversized motorcoach — wide enough for a real celebration but easy enough to handle the tight turns around Jackson Square and the loading zones along Decatur Street. Interiors vary by make and model, but the standard build puts perimeter wraparound seating along both cabin walls, an open center aisle that doubles as a dance floor, and enough overhead clearance that nobody's crouching. It's the right fit for bachelorette groups moving between the Warehouse District and Frenchmen Street, for birthday parties hitting multiple venues in the Bywater, and for corporate groups shuttling between the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center and Mid-City hotels.
One vehicle, one rate, one pickup plan.

Amenities On Our 40 Passenger Party Bus
Step on board and the atmosphere is already built in. Expect color-changing LED lighting that shifts with the energy of the ride, a premium sound system with Bluetooth connectivity so your playlist runs uninterrupted from pickup to the last drop-off, and a full-length wet bar stocked however you like before the bus rolls. Flat-panel TVs mounted toward the front and rear of the cabin keep everyone connected to the screen, whether that's a Saints broadcast or a slideshow for the birthday guest of honor.
Climate control handles what the Louisiana humidity throws at you, and wraparound perimeter seating means no one's stuck at the back while everyone else is near the bar. For groups hauling extra bags, costumes, or Mardi Gras throws, ask about vehicles with undercarriage storage access.

How much does a 40 Passenger Party Bus cost in New Orleans?
A 40-passenger party bus rental in New Orleans runs $297–$338+ per hour on weekdays, $321–$478+ per hour on weekend nights, or $2,297–$3,473+ per day for a full-day charter. What moves a quote within those ranges comes down to a handful of clear factors. Mardi Gras season, Essence Festival weekend, and Jazz Fest Fridays push rates toward the top end because demand across the city spikes hard — vehicles committed in January for a Fat Tuesday run are often unavailable by March.
Weekends consistently price higher than weekdays, and longer blocks of hours generally work out to a better hourly rate than a short two-hour booking. Distance matters too: a loop entirely within the French Quarter prices differently than a run out to the Northshore or down to the Bayou Sauvages National Wildlife Refuge corridor. Call 504-497-9530 for a real all-inclusive number built around your date and itinerary.
