More About The 28 Passenger Party Bus
A 28-passenger party bus is the go-to vehicle when your Oakland group is too big for a Sprinter van but doesn't need a full 40-seat coach. Think birthday dinners hopping between Temescal and Uptown, corporate happy hours moving between Oakland's waterfront and the Lake Merritt district, or a bachelorette group covering the bars along Telegraph Avenue and finishing the night in San Francisco — all without designating a sober navigator or splitting into a three-car caravan. The 28-passenger configuration typically runs shorter in overall length than a full-size motorcoach, which means easier curbside drop-off at venues like the Fox Theater on Telegraph Ave and smoother parking lot entry at Oakland Arena.
Everyone boards together, everyone arrives together. That alone makes the planning easier.

How much does a 28 Passenger Party Bus cost in Oakland?
Oakland 28-passenger party bus rentals generally run $250–$350 per hour on weekdays and $275–$375 per hour on weekends, with full-day rates typically landing between $2,150 and $2,700. Weekend rates trend toward the higher end during peak demand windows — Warriors playoff runs, Giants home stretches at Oracle Park, Outside Lands weekend in August, and prom season from mid-April through May across the Oakland Unified and Alameda County school calendars. A Friday night Uptown bar crawl in October will price differently than a Tuesday afternoon corporate transfer to the Oakland Convention Center.
Those ranges give you a real planning baseline — the actual number moves with your date, your itinerary length, and which vehicle is available. Fill out the form or call 415-796-8301 and you can get a quote for your specific trip in under a minute. Check the Oakland party bus prices page for a fuller breakdown across all vehicle sizes.
