40-56 Passenger Charter Bus Rental
When your group tops 40 people and the itinerary stretches from downtown St Paul to the western suburbs — or all the way across the metro to Minneapolis — a full-size charter bus is the right call. Party Bus St Paul gives you access to 40-56 passenger charter buses built for exactly that: convention shuttles between the Saint Paul RiverCentre and hotels on Kellogg Boulevard, field trip runs down I-94 to the Mall of America, and post-season fan trips that would tie up a dozen cars on the Grand Casino Arena parking ramps. One vehicle, one flat rate, everyone together.

More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
Full-size charter buses in our network include models from MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA — brands that seat 40 to 56 passengers with enough undercarriage storage to fit instrument cases, trade-show materials, and a full row of hockey bags without a second thought. An MCI J4500 carries up to 56 riders with roughly 595 cubic feet of underfloor luggage space; a Prevost H3-45 pairs panoramic frameless windows with 470 cubic feet of storage — handy when your group wants to actually see the Mississippi River bluffs on the drive between St Paul and Stillwater. That size is built for the longer runs: convention groups heading to the Minneapolis Convention Center, school groups rolling out to Fort Snelling State Park, or fan groups making the northbound trip on I-35W to the Timberwolves.
For any trip where two minibuses would complicate things, one charter bus keeps it simple.

Amenities On Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
The amenity list covers every practical need for a full-day Minnesota trip. Standard features include high-back reclining seats, dual-zone climate control (important when you board at 7 a.m. in January and return after a summer Saints game at CHS Field), overhead parcel racks, WiFi, power outlets at every row, a PA system, and an onboard restroom — so a run to Rochester or a round trip to Grand Casino in Hinckley clears I-35 without a pit stop. Depending on the specific vehicle, a Prevost H3-45 adds two 110V outlets per row and individual reading lights, while an MCI J4500 brings indirect LED ceiling lighting and TV monitors with a DVD player.
Large undercarriage bays handle everything from rolling luggage on MSP airport transfers to coolers and camp chairs on tailgate days at Allianz Field. ADA-accessible vehicles are always available — just mention it ahead of your departure date.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in St Paul?
A 40-56 passenger charter bus rental in St Paul runs $158–$327+ per hour on weekdays and $162–$348+ per hour on weekends, with full-day rates landing between $1,331 and $2,841+ per day. Where your quote falls within those ranges comes down to a few real factors. Total hours on call matters most — a four-hour Wild game shuttle prices differently than a ten-hour Minnesota State Fair day.
Day of week is next: Saturday night around Grand Casino Arena typically lands near the top of the range, while a Tuesday corporate run sits closer to the bottom. Seasonal peaks tighten availability and push rates up — State Fair week in late August, playoff seasons, and graduation weekends in May are the stretches where demand runs hottest across the metro. Distance also plays a role: a looped downtown St Paul itinerary is shorter than a round trip to Duluth or the Wisconsin border.
