Tennessee Volunteers Game Day Shuttle Buses to Neyland Stadium
Book your Tennessee Volunteers game-day shuttle and leave the I-40 gridlock to everyone else! On home Saturdays at Neyland Stadium (1600 Stadium Drive, Knoxville, TN 37916), traffic on Neyland Drive, Kingston Pike, and the I-40/I-75 interchange backs up hours before kickoff and stays tangled well after the final whistle. Rideshare surge pricing kicks in the moment the Vol Walk on Peyton Manning Pass starts drawing crowds, roughly 2.5 hours before game time.
A charter bus or party bus keeps your entire group together, gets you there with time to tailgate, and has the ride home already handled. Oversized vehicle parking is coordinated in advance through UT Parking & Transit at (865) 974-5178. Tennessee home games run September through November — book four to six months out for the best availability and pricing.
Call 865-230-8110 to lock in your date!
Group Bus Rentals for Concerts and Shows at Knoxville’s Downtown Venues
Whatever show brings your group to downtown Knoxville, a bus rental keeps everyone together from the first pickup to the last bar stop. The Tennessee Theatre (604 S Gay Street, Knoxville, TN 37902) and the Bijou Theatre (803 S Gay Street, Knoxville, TN 37902) both sit on Gay Street, where charter bus drop-off happens curbside with staging on State Street or at the State Street Garage (312 State St, Knoxville, TN 37902). Mill & Mine (227 W Depot Avenue, Knoxville, TN 37917) handles larger touring acts with bus drop-off on W Depot Avenue.
Big Ears Festival in late March draws crowds to multiple downtown venues at once — a charter bus is far easier than splitting your group across rideshares between sets. Compare available buses and pricing for your show date in under 30 seconds using the online quote tool!
Knoxville Convention and Conference Event Shuttle Buses
It just got easier to move your conference attendees, corporate guests, or convention group across Knoxville! The Knoxville Civic Auditorium and Convention Center (500 Howard Baker Jr. Avenue, Knoxville, TN 37915) hosts major trade shows, corporate events, and large conferences throughout the year, with charter bus drop-off at the Howard Baker Jr. Avenue entrance and bus-friendly staging along Hill Avenue SE nearby. Whether you need a single minibus looping between a West Knoxville hotel and the convention center, a fleet of 56-passenger coaches for a multi-day corporate conference, or a recurring employee shuttle between the University of Tennessee campus and a downtown meeting venue, Charterbusservicesknoxville.com makes it easy to compare vehicles and packages from a network of providers serving Knoxville.

Day Trip and Long-Distance Charter Buses to Dollywood, the Smokies, and Beyond
Compare charter buses for Knoxville’s most popular group day trips and overnight runs, all in one place! Dollywood (2700 Dollywood Parks Blvd, Pigeon Forge, TN 37863) is about 35 miles east of Knoxville via US-441/Chapman Highway, with group bus parking in the main lot off Veterans Boulevard — Dollywood group sales can be reached at (865) 428-9488 to coordinate your arrival. Dollywood group reservations include free bus parking and a designated group entrance, and prepaying at least two weeks in advance gets your tickets shipped at no additional cost.
You arrive with the bus parking and entrance details already handled. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrance at the Sugarlands Visitor Center (1420 Fighting Creek Gap Rd, Gatlinburg, TN 37738) handles bus arrivals with bus/RV parking and required parking tags for vehicles parked longer than 15 minutes. The park’s daily, weekly, and annual parking tags cost $5, $15, and $40, respectively, so your bus can arrive with the correct tag ready instead of treating the Smokies like a pay-at-the-gate attraction.
For longer hauls, full-size charter buses with reclining seats, WiFi, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays make the 85-mile run to Bonnaroo in Manchester, the 112-mile trip to Chattanooga on I-75, or the 180-mile drive to Nashville on I-40 genuinely comfortable. Compare vehicles and pricing for any of these routes in under 30 seconds — no account needed!

Charter buses drop off groups on Stadium Drive and Phillip Fulmer Way near Neyland Stadium. Oversized vehicle parking is coordinated on a per-game basis through UT Parking & Transit at (865) 974-5178 — arrangements should be made in advance, since day-of parking is not guaranteed on game days. Lots open roughly four hours before kickoff.
Plan your group’s arrival at least three hours before game time to allow for the Vol Walk and tailgating on Peyton Manning Pass.
McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) (2055 Alcoa Highway, Alcoa, TN 37701) is approximately 12 miles south of downtown Knoxville via US-129/Alcoa Highway — about 20 to 25 minutes off-peak, and up to 40 to 60 minutes during UT game days or peak travel periods. Charter buses pick up curbside at the Arrivals level outside baggage claim. Have your entire group assembled with all luggage in hand before calling for the bus, since commercial vehicles cannot idle in the passenger cell phone lot.
Buses are not permitted in any TYS airport parking lot, so your charter bus stays on the roadway rather than using the Phone & Wait Lot. Departures use the upper-level Departures/Ticketing curb while arrivals use the lower-level Arrivals/Baggage Claim curb; see the McGhee Tyson Airport pickup and drop-off page for the terminal split. From August 24, 2026 through spring 2027, the left lane on the lower-level roadway closest to the parking garage is closed for construction, so your bus should allow extra time and follow the posted signs during arrival pickup.
Check current ground transport details at flyknoxville.com before your trip.
Absolutely! Day trips and overnight charters from Knoxville to Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Great Smoky Mountains National Park are some of the most popular runs in the network. Dollywood is about 35 miles east via US-441, with group bus parking in the main lot — contact Dollywood group sales at (865) 428-9488 in advance.
The Smokies are roughly 40 to 45 miles east. Full-size charter buses with WiFi, reclining seats, and undercarriage luggage bays make the run easy and comfortable for every passenger.
Book three to six months out for most Knoxville events, and stretch that to six months or more for Tennessee Volunteers home football Saturdays (September through November), Big Ears Festival in late March, Dogwood Arts Festival in April, and prom season across Knox, Anderson, and Blount County school districts in April and May. UT graduation in May and December also creates strong demand. Waiting until the last minute on any of these dates means higher pricing and fewer vehicles to choose from — the earlier you compare, the better your options!
Through the network, you can compare sprinter vans for smaller groups, 15- to 35-passenger minibuses for mid-sized groups, 15- to 50-passenger party buses with built-in bars and LED lighting for celebrations, and 56-passenger charter buses with reclining seats, WiFi, onboard restrooms, and luggage bays for larger groups or longer distances. Amenities vary by vehicle and operator — just mention any specific needs like ADA accessibility or a particular color when you fill out your quote, and the network will match you with the right options!
