A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Catch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium
If you are in Brandon during the fall, Sunday football is a religion. Raymond James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, offers one of the most electric atmospheres in the NFL, complete with a firing pirate ship and sweltering Florida heat. However, getting 50 of your closest friends or fellow fan club members from Brandon to the stadium can be a logistical nightmare involving caravans on the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway and expensive, scattered parking.
When you book a charter bus with Charter Bus Brandon, your group can bypass the stress of the commute. We can pick your group up from a central location in Brandon—perhaps near the Westfield Brandon Mall—and shuttle you directly to the stadium. Our buses feature spacious undercarriage storage, perfect for hauling coolers, folding chairs, tents, and cornhole boards for the ultimate tailgate party.
Once you arrive at Raymond James Stadium (4201 N Dale Mabry Hwy, Tampa, FL 33607), your driver will handle the parking while you head straight to the fan zone. After the game, you can relax in a climate-controlled cabin with reclining seats, avoiding the post-game gridlock while recounting the game's best plays. Whether you need a minibus for a fantasy football league outing or a 56-passenger motorcoach for a massive fan club, we have the fleet to handle the Red Sea.
Cheering on the Lightning at Amalie Arena
Hockey in Florida? You better believe it. The Tampa Bay Lightning have turned the region into a hockey powerhouse, and Amalie Arena is the place to be when the ice is frozen. Located in the Channelside district, just a short drive from Brandon via the expressway, Amalie Arena hosts high-energy games that often sell out. Driving multiple cars into downtown Tampa during a game night often results in split-up groups and exorbitant parking fees.
A private bus rental from Charter Bus Brandon transforms the trip into a VIP experience. We can drop your group off curbside near Amalie Arena (401 Channelside Dr, Tampa, FL 33602), allowing you to walk right into Thunder Alley to enjoy the pre-game festivities, live music, and food trucks. Inside the bus, you can utilize our onboard WiFi to check stats or stream pre-game commentary.
This service isn't just for fans; we also support local youth hockey teams traveling to tournaments or intermission shootouts. With ample storage for bulky hockey bags and sticks, our charter buses ensure that players and equipment arrive together, comfortable and sound. Let us handle the traffic on Adamo Drive while you focus on the puck drop.
Spring Training & Baseball Trips Near Brandon
For baseball purists, the area surrounding Brandon is a paradise. Spring Training brings the New York Yankees to George M. Steinbrenner Field (1 Steinbrenner Dr, Tampa, FL 33614), located just a convenient bus ride away. Watching the Bronx Bombers warm up in the Florida sunshine is a bucket-list item for many, and Charter Bus Brandon makes it easy for large groups of fans, senior communities, or corporate outings to attend these afternoon games comfortably.
But the baseball action doesn’t stop in spring. The Tampa Bay Rays play at Tropicana Field (1 Tropicana Dr, St. Petersburg, FL 33705) across the bay. The drive from Brandon to St. Petersburg can be unpredictable due to bridge traffic, but in a charter bus, the journey becomes part of the fun. Your group can socialize, enjoy a beverage (if permitted), and relax in air-conditioned comfort while your driver navigates the trek across the bay. We can organize season-long transportation for booster clubs or one-off trips for company picnics at the ballpark.
Youth Sports Tournaments at J.C. Handly & BSAC
Brandon isn't just a hub for watching pros; it is a hotbed for youth athletics. If you are a tournament director, a coach, or a team parent, you know that Brandon hosts some of the most competitive youth tournaments in the state. J.C. Handly Sports Complex (3003 S Kings Ave, Brandon, FL 33511) is a sprawling facility hosting soccer, football, and baseball events year-round. Coordinating travel for a team of energetic kids and their equipment requires precision and space.
Charter Bus Brandon is the preferred transportation partner for youth teams visiting the area. Our full-size charter buses offer massive luggage bays that easily swallow equipment bags, uniform crates, and coolers. Inside, players can rest in reclining seats, charge their devices with power outlets, and watch movies on flat-screen TVs to stay focused before the match.
We also frequently service the Brandon Sports and Aquatic Center (405 Beverly Blvd, Brandon, FL 33511), a premier destination for swimming and tennis competitions. Instead of a convoy of stressed parents trying to follow GPS directions to an unfamiliar complex, keep the team united and morale high on a single, comfortable motorcoach.
High School Football Rivalries & Fan Transport
In Florida, Friday night lights are a way of life. Brandon is home to passionate high school rivalries, including the Brandon High School Eagles and the Bloomingdale High School Bulls. Whether you are the band director needing to move instruments and musicians, or a student government organizing a "Spirit Bus" for a massive away game playoff, Charter Bus Brandon has the capacity you need.
We provide comfortable, reliable transportation for school districts and booster clubs alike. By renting a charter bus for away games, you ensure the cheerleading squad, the marching band, and the football team arrive on time, together, and ready to perform. We can even arrange shuttle services for large alumni groups returning for homecoming games, ensuring everyone gets from the pre-game dinner to the stadium stands without a hitch.
Topgolf & Post-Game Celebrations in Brandon
Sometimes the sporting event is one you participate in yourself! Brandon is home to the wildly popular Topgolf (10690 Palm River Rd, Tampa, FL 33619), located conveniently near I-75. This is a prime destination for corporate team-building events, bachelor parties, and birthday celebrations.
Hire a minibus or party bus from Charter Bus Brandon to shuttle your group to Topgolf. You can enjoy the climate-controlled hitting bays, food, and drinks without worrying about assigning a designated driver. After you’ve hit a few balls, your bus can take you to local favorites for a post-game meal. We recommend Ford's Garage (11105 Causeway Blvd, Brandon, FL 33511) for a burger in a vintage service station setting, or Dave & Buster's (10209 Estuary Lakes Dr, Tampa, FL 33619) for more games and entertainment.
With a private bus rental, the celebration doesn't have to end when you leave the venue. Keep the energy up with your own music playlist via AUX/Bluetooth connections and LED lighting on our party buses as you travel comfortably back to your hotel or home.

Frequently Asked Questions About Brandon Sports Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus for a sports team in Brandon?
The cost of your charter bus rental depends on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of the rental, the distance traveled, and the time of year. For example, a trip during the peak of spring training might cost slightly more than an off-season rental. We offer transparent pricing with no extra fees. Call us at 727-621-1920 or use our online quote tool for an instant, personalized estimate based on your specific game day needs.
Is there enough room for all our tailgating gear?
Absolutely! If you book a full-size 56-passenger charter bus, you will have access to spacious undercarriage luggage bays. These compartments are perfect for storing large coolers, folding tables, chairs, tents, and even portable grills. If you are renting a smaller minibus, storage space is more limited, so be sure to discuss your equipment needs with our reservation specialists to ensure you book the right vehicle size.
How far in advance should we book transportation for a tournament?
We recommend booking your charter bus as soon as your game or tournament schedule is finalized. For major events, such as NFL games or large regional youth tournaments at J.C. Handly Sports Complex, we suggest booking at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best pricing. However, we can often accommodate last-minute requests, so don't hesitate to call us anytime.
Do your buses have WiFi so we can check scores on the road?
Yes! Most of our charter buses and minibuses come equipped with modern amenities, including high-speed WiFi and power outlets at every seat. This allows your group to check fantasy scores, stream pre-game commentary, or post photos of your victory on the way home. Be sure to request a bus with WiFi when you speak to your reservation agent to guarantee this amenity is available on your specific vehicle.
