If you live in DE6 or nearby and you’re planning a celebration, Party Buses connects you with chauffeur-driven vehicles that make group travel simple and fun. Think of us as a neighbour with decades of experience: we match you to the best local operators across Derbyshire so you can focus on the party, not the logistics.
Our Fleet in and around Ashbourne covers everything from compact options to the largest luxury coaches. Whether you need a nimble option for a tight town-centre pick-up or a roomy coach for a big group, we’ve got it covered.
The 12–16 seater limo buses are ideal for hen and stag parties around the Market Place or a birthday crawl through local pubs. They commonly include LED mood lighting, premium sound systems and comfortable wrap-around seating — perfect for keeping everyone together as you travel between venues like St Oswald’s, the Market Place and nearby hotels.
For bigger groups we offer 20–24 seater luxury party coaches with bar areas, dance-friendly floors and karaoke options. These are great for wedding groups heading to Tissington Hall, race days, or concert runs to larger venues across Derbyshire and beyond.
Expect on-board essentials: multi-zone sound, LED and disco lighting, climate control, mini-bars or coolers, optional karaoke, and safe, cushioned seating. Every vehicle is chauffeur-driven, fully insured and maintained to a high standard for your peace of mind.
Imagine music pulsing through the cabin as the lights change colour, friends laughing and dancing while the driver navigates familiar routes past Ashbourne Market Place and along the Tissington Trail. That feeling — walking out together, stepping off the bus at your venue and keeping the party rolling — is exactly what a Experience with a party bus is about.
Booking through Party Buses saves time: compare prices, check availability and lock in a vehicle in one place. Practical tips: book early for peak weekends, consider a party bus for the outward journey and a smaller MPV or minibus for the return to reduce costs, or split a large group between two smaller buses if streets are narrow at your pickup point.
Share costs between friends, pick mid-week or daytime slots for lower rates, and look for one-way or multi-stop packages if you don’t need a full round trip.
We know Ashbourne and the DE6 patch: from Market Place pickups to collections near St Oswald’s Church, wedding drops at Tissington Hall, and nights out that start or end near the town’s hotels and pubs. We regularly cover routes to Stanfield le Hope, Alton, Wirksworth, Uttoxeter and Cheadle, so whether you’re moving guests between venues or travelling into Buxton or Derby for a concert, drivers will arrive with local know-how.
When deciding between vehicles, think about what you want to achieve. A Compare shows a party bus is best when you want everyone together and the celebration to start en route; stretch limousines or Hummer limos suit smaller, high-impact arrivals; luxury minibuses and MPVs are practical for quieter or budget-conscious returns.

Party buses are popular for a wide range of events across Ashbourne and Derbyshire: birthdays, proms, weddings, hen and stag parties, race days, festivals, concerts and nights out. Many groups ask for one-way transfers to a venue, round trips that keep the bus waiting, or multi-stop itineraries so they can visit several pubs or hotels in one evening.
Wedding parties often book a coach to move guests between churches, ceremony venues like Tissington Hall and reception venues, allowing everyone to arrive together without worrying about parking.
For proms or club nights in town, a party coach means the celebration starts on the way there — with safe, chauffeur-driven transport home afterwards.
Aim to book as early as you can for popular dates (weekends, prom season and bank holidays). For standard weekends in DE6, 4–8 weeks is common; for peak dates, book several months ahead to secure your preferred vehicle.
