A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Catch the Colorado Rapids at Dick's Sporting Goods Park
For soccer fans in Thornton, the action is practically in your backyard. Dick's Sporting Goods Park, home of the MLS Colorado Rapids, is located just a short drive southeast of Thornton at 6000 Victory Way, Commerce City, CO 80022. However, for major matches, international friendlies, or the massive annual concerts held at the stadium, traffic congestion on Quebec Street and surrounding avenues can be a nightmare. By booking a private charter bus rental with Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton, you can bypass the stress of coordinating a caravan of cars or paying for individual parking passes.
A charter bus is the ultimate tailgating vehicle for Rapids fans. Our full-size motorcoaches come equipped with spacious undercarriage storage bays, providing plenty of room for your tents, coolers, grills, and cornhole sets. Your driver can drop your group off near the stadium entrance or park in the designated oversized vehicle lots, allowing you to set up your tailgate base of operations immediately. If you are a youth soccer club from Thornton heading to the complex for a tournament on the surrounding 24 fields, a bus rental ensures the entire team stays together, focused, and safe. With onboard WiFi and PA systems, coaches can review strategies or play hype videos as you make the short trip from Thornton to the pitch.
Group Transportation to Empower Field at Mile High
There is nothing quite like the electric atmosphere of a Denver Broncos game. Located at 1701 Bryant St, Denver, CO 80204, Empower Field at Mile High is the holy grail for football fans in the region. However, getting 50 of your closest friends or colleagues from Thornton to the stadium on a Sunday can be logistically difficult. Rideshare surge pricing spikes dramatically before kickoff, and stadium parking can cost a premium while still requiring a long walk. Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton offers the perfect solution: a private shuttle bus dedicated entirely to your group.
When you rent a charter bus for a Broncos game, the party starts the moment you step on board. You can request a bus that allows alcohol consumption (for passengers of legal drinking age), turning the commute down I-25 into a mobile pep rally. Your driver handles the gridlock on Federal Boulevard and navigates the stadium traffic patterns, dropping you off within walking distance of the gates. After the game, while thousands of fans are struggling to find a signal to call an Uber, your driver will be waiting at a pre-arranged location to whisk you back to Thornton safely. Whether you are a corporate group hosting a client appreciation event or a large family reunion centered around the big game, our 56-passenger motorcoaches offer the comfort and reliability you need.
Thornton Youth Sports and Tournament Travel
Thornton is a hotbed for youth sports, boasting some of the best recreational facilities in the state. From baseball tournaments to soccer leagues, teams from all over Colorado converge here to compete. If you are a coach or tournament organizer, you know that keeping a team organized during travel is half the battle. Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton specializes in athletic team transportation, providing safe and reliable buses for teams traveling to or from venues like the Riverdale Regional Park (9755 Henderson Rd, Brighton, CO 80601) or the massive ballfields at Lutz Sports Complex (10664 W 58th Ave, Arvada, CO 80002).
Our charter buses are designed with athletes in mind. We know that hockey bags, baseball equipment, and football pads take up a lot of space. That is why we recommend our full-size charter buses, which feature massive luggage bays capable of holding all your team's gear without cluttering the cabin. Inside, players can stretch out in reclining seats with plenty of legroom—essential for preventing cramps before a match or relaxing after a hard-fought victory. With onboard power outlets and WiFi, students can catch up on homework or stream music, while coaches can use the PA system to make announcements and ensure everyone is on the same page. Don't rely on a chain of tired parents driving personal SUVs; let a driver handle the road while the team bonds.
Golfing Getaways in and Around Thornton
For those who prefer the quiet intensity of the fairway to the roar of a stadium, Thornton offers exceptional golfing opportunities. Planning a bachelor party, a corporate retreat, or a guys' weekend out on the links? Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton offers the perfect transportation solution. We can shuttle your group to Todd Creek Golf Club (8455 Heritage Dr, Thornton, CO 80602) for a challenging round with panoramic mountain views, or to Thorncreek Golf Course (13555 Washington St, Thornton, CO 80241) for a classic layout. For a more social, party-centric golf experience, we can take your group to Topgolf located right in Thornton at 16011 Grant St, Thornton, CO 80023.
For smaller groups of golfers, our 15 to 25-passenger minibuses are the ideal choice. They are compact enough to navigate country club driveways easily but spacious enough to accommodate passengers and their golf clubs. If you are planning a "golf crawl" across the North Metro area, your driver can act as your dedicated chauffeur, taking you from course to course and then to dinner at a local steakhouse or brewery. No one has to worry about having a few drinks at the clubhouse or navigating unfamiliar roads. We handle the logistics so you can focus on your swing.
Coors Field Shuttles for Colorado Rockies Games
Summer in Colorado means Rockies baseball! Coors Field (2001 Blake St, Denver, CO 80205) is located in the heart of LoDo (Lower Downtown Denver), offering one of the best ballpark experiences in the MLB. However, parking in LoDo can be expensive and scarce, especially for evening games or weekend series. Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton makes attending a Rockies game a breeze for groups coming from the north suburbs. Gather your church group, summer camp, or office department and head down to the ballpark in air-conditioned comfort.
A charter bus rental allows you to avoid the scramble for parking and the heavy traffic on Park Avenue West. Your driver can drop your group off near the stadium, allowing you plenty of time to grab a hot dog, visit the Rooftop deck, or find your seats before the first pitch. If you are planning a company outing, a bus rental is a great way to build camaraderie. You can use the onboard microphone to run a trivia contest about the team or discuss the day's agenda before arriving at the game. Once the final out is recorded, your group stays together for the ride back to Thornton, avoiding the post-game traffic jams that plague the parking garages.
Indoor Sports and Recreation Centers in Thornton
Thornton isn't just about outdoor fields; it is home to premier indoor facilities that host swim meets, basketball tournaments, and gymnastics competitions year-round. Facilities like the Margaret W. Carpenter Recreation Center (11151 Colorado Blvd, Thornton, CO 80233) and the Trail Winds Recreation Center (13495 Holly St, Thornton, CO 80602) are frequent destinations for visiting teams. Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton is experienced in navigating the parking lots and drop-off zones of these local community hubs.
When traveling for a swim meet or basketball tournament, rest and hydration are key. Our climate-controlled buses provide a sanctuary for athletes between heats or games. Instead of sitting on hard bleachers or in cramped cars, athletes can retreat to the bus to cool off in the A/C, eat a healthy snack, or take a power nap in a reclining seat. For multi-day tournaments, we can provide shuttle service between the recreation centers and local hotels, ensuring that your team stays on a strict schedule and gets the rest they need to perform at their best.
Easy Access to Ball Arena for Nuggets and Avalanche Games
When the temperature drops, the action heats up at Ball Arena (1000 Chopper Cir, Denver, CO 80204), home to the Denver Nuggets and the Colorado Avalanche. Located just 20 minutes south of Thornton via I-25, this venue hosts some of the most exciting sporting events in the country. Whether you are organizing a fan club trip to see the reigning champions or taking a youth hockey team to watch the pros skate, Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton provides the warmest, most comfortable way to travel.
Winter driving conditions in Colorado can be unpredictable, but your drivers are trained to handle snowy and icy roads safely. You can leave the winter driving stress to us while your group stays warm inside a heated motorcoach. Our buses are perfect for large groups heading to the arena. We can arrange for a pickup at a central location in Thornton—like a Park-n-Ride or a local shopping center—and transport everyone directly to the designated bus drop-off zone at Ball Arena. After the buzzer sounds, you won't have to shiver while walking blocks to a car; your heated bus will be ready to take you home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thornton Sports Transportation
How much storage space is available for sports equipment on a charter bus?
Our full-size 56-passenger charter buses feature massive undercarriage luggage bays that are perfect for storing bulky sports equipment. Whether you are hauling football pads, hockey bags, soccer nets, or large coolers for tailgating, there is ample room to keep everything secure and out of the way. The interior overhead bins are also available for personal items like backpacks and duffel bags. If you are renting a minibus, storage is more limited to the rear of the bus and overhead racks, so be sure to let our reservation specialists know exactly what equipment you are bringing so we can match you with the right vehicle.
Can we drink alcohol on the bus while traveling to a game?
Yes, in most cases, passengers of legal drinking age (21+) are permitted to consume alcohol on our buses. This is a popular option for bachelor parties, corporate outings , and fan groups heading to Broncos or Rockies games. However, you must notify us in advance if you plan to bring alcohol on board so we can ensure the proper policies are in place. Please note that a refundable security deposit may be required, and glass bottles are often discouraged for safety reasons. The driver is not allowed to drink, and we strictly enforce safety regulations to ensure a fun but safe environment.
Do you offer parking passes for the stadiums?
Charter Bus Rental Company Thornton provides the transportation vehicle and the driver, but we do not purchase parking passes for the venues. It is the responsibility of the group organizer to secure the necessary bus parking permits for venues like Empower Field at Mile High, Coors Field, or Dick's Sporting Goods Park. These venues often require specific oversized vehicle passes that must be purchased in advance. Our team can, however, advise you on where the designated drop-off and pick-up zones are for each specific stadium to make your arrival as smooth as possible.
How far in advance should we book a bus for a major sporting event?
For major sporting events, especially Denver Broncos games or playoff matches for the Nuggets or Avalanche, demand for charter buses is incredibly high. We recommend booking your bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and to get the best possible rate. If you are planning transportation for a large youth tournament requiring multiple buses, the sooner you book, the better. However, we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever our fleet availability allows.
Is the driver's gratuity included in the quote?
Our quotes typically include the cost of the bus rental, fuel, driver's time and even driver’s gratuity. Be sure to ask your reservation specialist for a breakdown of your quote so you know exactly what is included.
