Utica Comets Game Day & Adirondack Bank Center Event Shuttles
Fill out one form and find the perfect bus for your next Utica Comets game at Adirondack Bank Center (400 Oriskany St W, Utica, NY 13502) without anyone in your group circling the block hunting for parking! Game-day surface lots around the arena fill fast on big nights, and a party bus or minibus keeps your group together from the first puck drop through the final buzzer. Buses drop off on Auditorium Drive across from the Labatt Blue Ticket Entrance — and since motorcoach assignments at the Bank Center are coordinated on a per-event basis, it's worth confirming your staging details when you book.
Compare buses from a network of providers serving Utica and find the right vehicle for your group in seconds!
Your bus can unload at the Auditorium Drive drop-off, then use the event lots entered from Whitesboro Street; there is no street parking between Broadway and Auditorium Drive during Comets games or Adirondack Bank Center events. The Adirondack Bank Center parking page maps the lot entrances and event-day restrictions.
Turning Stone Resort Casino Group Transportation From Utica
Booking a group trip to Turning Stone Resort Casino (5218 Patrick Rd, Verona, NY 13478) is one of the most popular reasons Utica groups rent a charter bus — and for good reason! The resort is roughly 20 miles west of Utica via I-90 and NY-365, and Turning Stone maintains a dedicated motorcoach transportation center for drop-off and pickup, with designated bus parking lots, so your group arrives together and in style without anyone navigating the parking structure. Whether you're going for a concert, a boxing event, a casino night, or a full weekend at the spa and golf courses, a charter bus or party bus from the network makes the ride part of the fun.
Fill out one form and compare vehicles, amenities, and pricing from a network of providers serving the Utica–Verona corridor!
Your bus uses the Turning Stone Resort Casino motorcoach transportation center for every drop-off and pickup, parks in a designated lot, and can use the convenient motorcoach bays at the back of the casino. Advance reservations are requested for motorcoach groups, so your arrival is organized before you leave Utica.
Get a Bus for the Boilermaker Road Race & Utica's Biggest Annual Events
Get a head start on Boilermaker weekend before the buses are gone! The Boilermaker Road Race — held every July (2026 date: Sunday, July 12) — draws 10,000-plus runners and tens of thousands of spectators to downtown Utica, and it's one of the most recognized 15K road races in the country. Downtown street closures on race day make private group transportation the smartest move your group can make.
The same goes for the Utica St. Patrick's Day Parade in March, Saranac Thursday outdoor concerts at the Saranac Brewery (830 Varick St) from June through August, and Utica Comets playoff runs in the spring. These dates book out fast across the entire Mohawk Valley. Call 815-691-0080 or use the online quote tool to compare buses and lock in your date before availability disappears!
For the 2026 race, the 15K starts at 8:00 a.m. near Culver Avenue and Beechgrove Place and finishes at Court Street and Varick Street; race streets close to traffic for about 2 hours 30 minutes. Your bus can get runners to the start before the closures and return to a named finish-area meet point after the race. The official Boilermaker 15K course and transportation page carries the start, finish, packet-pickup, and road-closure details.
Fill Out One Form for Utica Wedding, Prom & Celebration Shuttles

You can even request available white, black, or silver vehicles to match your wedding colors or event theme.

It's Easier Than Ever to Book a Stanley Theatre or MWPAI Event Bus
It's easier than ever to get your whole group to a Broadway touring show or a gallery gala without anyone stressing over downtown parking! The Stanley Centre for the Arts (259 Genesee St, Utica, NY 13501) and the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute (310 Genesee St, Utica, NY 13502) sit just steps apart on Genesee Street, and buses drop off along the Genesee Street corridor with Utica Parking Authority lots nearby for staging. Whether you're organizing a group of theater-goers for a touring musical, a corporate table at a MWPAI gala, or a school group visiting the museum, Busrentalutica.com makes it easy to compare minibuses and charter buses from a network of providers serving downtown Utica.

For the MWPAI leg, free parking sits behind the Museum of Art and the lot is accessed from State Street; the ADA-accessible entrance is at the rear of the building. Your bus can use the Genesee Street arrival, then stage with the museum's parking layout in mind instead of sending everyone around the block. See the Munson visit and parking page for the rear entrance and State Street access.
