Nebraska Cornhuskers home football Saturdays at Memorial Stadium are the single hardest days to find a bus in Lincoln — and across much of Nebraska. With stadium capacity of 85,458 in a city of roughly 295,000 people, every available vehicle in the region gets claimed early. The 2025 home schedule includes games through November; the 2026 schedule will be released in the spring.
Beyond football, Lincoln Public Schools prom season (April–May), UNL Spring Commencement in May, and major concert nights at Pinnacle Bank Arena are all high-demand windows. Book six months or more in advance for football Saturdays, and at least two to three months out for other peak dates.
The University of Nebraska designates specific lots for oversized vehicles and motorcoaches on game days — Lot 1 along Stadium Drive and Lot 27 are commonly referenced for charter bus parking, but assignments can vary by game and are managed by UNL Parking & Transit. It is strongly recommended to confirm your specific lot assignment directly with UNL Parking & Transit at (402) 472-1800 or through parking.unl.edu before your game day, as arrangements for oversized vehicles typically need to be made in advance. Gates open three hours before kickoff.
Plan your pickup timing around the postgame traffic on I-80 and US-77, which can be significant after large home games.
Yes — long-distance charter buses are available through the network for runs from Lincoln to Kansas City (approximately 175 miles south via US-77 and I-29), Denver (approximately 500 miles west on I-80), and destinations across the Great Plains and beyond. Full-size motorcoaches for these routes come with reclining seats, climate control, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays.

For groups of 10 to 15 people, a sprinter van is often the most cost-effective and practical option — compact enough to navigate downtown Lincoln and park easily, with comfortable seating and modern amenities. For groups of 15 to 35, a minibus gives you more room with overhead storage, climate control, and optional WiFi. If your group wants a built-in bar, LED lighting, and a party atmosphere, a party bus is the pick regardless of size.
Compare all of these side by side through the online quote tool to find the right fit for your headcount and your plans!
Yes — ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair ramps or lifts, wider aisles, and accessible restroom facilities are available through the network of transportation companies serving Lincoln. When you submit your quote request online or call 913-453-1370, mention your accessibility requirements and the number of passengers who need accessible accommodations.

For most Lincoln trips — concerts, corporate events, weddings, private parties — booking two to four weeks in advance gives you a solid selection of vehicles and competitive pricing. For high-demand dates, book much earlier: Nebraska Cornhuskers home football Saturdays warrant six months or more of lead time, prom season bookings should be locked in by January or February at the latest, and UNL commencement weekend in May fills up quickly. The earlier you book, the more vehicle options you'll have and the better your pricing.

From Memorial Stadium to the Haymarket District to the Nebraska State Capitol, Lincoln has plenty of great destinations worth visiting by bus. Here are six of the best!
Use the previous and next buttons, the left and right arrow keys, or swipe to browse six destinations.
Memorial Stadium
Memorial Stadium is one of the most storied venues in college football — home of the Nebraska Cornhuskers, with a capacity of 85,458 and a home sellout streak that dates to 1962, one of the longest in the country. On game Saturdays, Lincoln's population of roughly 295,000 swells by more than 85,000 fans, and I-80 and US-77 see significant congestion before and after kickoff. Charter bus parking for oversized vehicles is managed by UNL Parking & Transit at (402) 472-1800; confirm your lot assignment in advance.
Lots open three hours before kickoff. A charter bus keeps your tailgate group together from the first stop to the final whistle.
Pinnacle Bank Arena
Pinnacle Bank Arena (400 Pinnacle Bank Arena Dr, Lincoln, NE 68508, (402) 904-4444) is Lincoln's premier large-capacity venue — a 15,500-seat arena opened in 2013 that hosts Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball, major touring concerts, and large-scale events. Located on the western edge of the Haymarket District, the arena sits adjacent to Haymarket Park and within walking distance of Lincoln's best restaurants and bars. Charter bus drop-off is on Pinnacle Bank Arena Drive; nearby parking options include the Haymarket garage at 7th & Q Street.
On sold-out concert nights, the Haymarket area fills quickly — a bus keeps your group together from pickup to last call.
Nebraska State Capitol
Nebraska State Capitol (1445 K St, Lincoln, NE 68509, (402) 471-0448) is one of the most architecturally distinctive buildings in the United States — a 400-foot "Tower on the Plains" visible from across Lincoln and unlike any other capitol building in the country. The building is open to visitors Monday–Friday 8am–5pm, Saturday 10am–5pm, and Sunday 1–5pm, with free guided tours departing on the hour throughout those hours. The building is a top destination for school field trips, civic group tours, and out-of-state visitors.
Bus drop-off is on K Street or 15th Street, with designated loading zones on the south side of the Capitol grounds. Confirm current access details with the Capitol's visitor services before your visit.
Morrill Hall — University of Nebraska State Museum
Morrill Hall (645 N 14th St, Lincoln, NE 68588, (402) 472-2642) is home to Archie the Mammoth — the largest mounted Columbian mammoth fossil in the world — and is Nebraska's premier natural history museum, located on the UNL campus. Admission is charged; group rates are available. Bus drop-off is on 14th Street, with campus parking structures nearby.
Morrill Hall is one of the top school field trip destinations in Nebraska and a must-visit for any group with an interest in natural history or paleontology. Confirm current hours with the museum before your visit, as they can vary seasonally.
Pioneers Park Nature Center
Pioneers Park Nature Center (3201 S Coddington Ave, Lincoln, NE 68522, (402) 441-7895) is a 668-acre nature preserve operated by the City of Lincoln Parks & Recreation Department, featuring prairie, wetlands, woodland trails, and a wildlife exhibit area where visitors can see bison, elk, white-tailed deer, and other native Nebraska wildlife. Admission to the nature center is free; the wildlife area carries a nominal fee. The main parking lot off Coddington Avenue has ample space for buses.
Open year-round; hours vary by season. Pioneers Park is one of the most popular school field trip destinations in Lancaster County and a great choice for nature-oriented group outings of any size.
The Haymarket District
The Haymarket District (7th–9th Streets & O–R Streets, Lincoln, NE 68508) is Lincoln's historic warehouse district turned dining, entertainment, and retail hub — and the heartbeat of the city's social scene. Home to Boiler Brewing Company (129 N 10th St), restaurants, cocktail bars, and event spaces, the Haymarket is the go-to destination for bachelorette parties, birthday nights out, corporate dinners, and post-game celebrations. The Saturday Farmers Market (May through October, 8am–noon on 8th Street) draws large weekend crowds.
Pinnacle Bank Arena and Haymarket Park are both located within the district. Bus drop-off is along 8th or 9th Street; the Haymarket parking garage at 7th & Q is the primary large-vehicle option nearby.
