Tailor your party bus hire in Blandford Forum with vehicles designed for celebrations. We also serve Sturminster Newton, Dorset, Ferndown, Wareham, Poole with flexible, stylish options.
You know how you bump into a neighbour at the Co-op and end up talking about the next big do in town? That’s the tone I want here — a quick, friendly chat about what we do and how we can help. At Party Buses, we’ve spent over 20 years connecting folk across Dorset with dependable, fun transport for weddings, hen and stag nights, proms, kids’ parties, corporate outings and those nights when the whole group fancies doing something a bit different. If you’ve ever looked out over the River Stour and imagined rolling past Blandford’s Georgian streets with music and laughter aboard a bright, roomy vehicle, you’re in the right place.
Our Fleet is what gets a lot of people asking questions — and rightly so. We work with trusted local operators so the vehicles you see on the road around Blandford Forum and nearby towns are clean, insured and driven by experienced chauffeurs. Whether you’re thinking of a compact party bus to nip between Wimborne Minster and Shaftesbury, or a stretch limousine for a wedding in Dorset, we can match the right vehicle to the mood.
For groups that want to keep things sociable without taking over the whole street, our Mini and midi buses are perfectly sized. They’re cheerful, comfortable and great for school proms or a cluster of families heading to a birthday celebration out near Highcliffe.
If you’re leaning towards something a touch more polished — maybe for a wedding or an anniversary — our Luxury limousines arrive with that little extra flourish: leather seating, chilled storage, and chauffeurs who know the quiet back routes around Sturminster Newton and beyond.
Booking with us is meant to be easy. Think of it like asking a neighbour to recommend someone reliable: you tell us the date, a rough idea of the route (Blandford to Bournemouth or a circular around Dorset, for example), and the vibe you want. We check availability with our partners, confirm the vehicle and the driver, and handle the details so you can focus on the guest list. The whole process is transparent — we’ll share pickup windows, expected travel times and any accessibility information up front. If you’d like, start by taking a look at our how it works page for a step-by-step guide.
We know budgets matter. Our Pricing aims to be straightforward: clear starting rates, and honest discussions about extras like extended waiting time or bespoke routes. Prices will vary by vehicle size, distance and event type — a short round trip around Blandford will look different from an evening that runs to Shaftesbury — and we’ll always give you the full picture before you book.
| Vehicle type | Typical capacity | Best for | Typical starting price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mini party bus | 8–16 passengers | Small hen/stag, kids’ parties | From £120 |
| Midi party bus | 17–28 passengers | Proms, larger groups | From £220 |
| Stretch limousine | 4–10 passengers | Weddings, anniversaries | From £180 |
| Small coach | 30–50 passengers | Corporate events, large parties | From £350 |
We’re based with Blandford Forum in our hearts, but our reach covers the corners of Dorset you know well. Whether you’re travelling from Blandford to Highcliffe for a seaside celebration, collecting friends in Wimborne Minster for a night out, or planning a scenic loop that includes Sturminster Newton and Shaftesbury, we’ll help you plan a sensible route and timing. It’s often the little touches — a shorter walk from a familiar pub, or a drop-off near a community hall — that make all the difference.
When you’re ready, Book now through our simple enquiry form or give us a ring. Tell us what you’re planning — date, party size and the feel you want — and we’ll take it from there. If you prefer, check our fleet listings for photos and vehicle specs, or head to /book to lock in a date.
It depends on the season. For summer weekends, proms or sports finals, earlier is better — a month or two if possible. For midweek or off-season dates we often have more flexibility. If you’re unsure, drop us a message and we’ll check local availability for the date you have in mind.
All partner operators hold proper insurance, carry out regular vehicle checks and use vetted, professional drivers. We’ll confirm vehicle safety standards with you, including seatbelts and any child-seat requirements, before booking.
Most vehicles allow drinks on board, and many offer chilled storage. We do ask that you follow the driver’s guidance, respect local laws and think about late-night drop-offs — no one wants a sticky exit on the High Street. If you’re planning to bring alcohol, tell us up front so we can note it with the operator.
We understand that plans do change. Our cancellation policy varies by operator, but we aim for fairness. We’ll outline the terms when you book, and we’ll always try to find an alternative vehicle or date where possible.
If you’re from Blandford Forum, you know it’s the kind of place where recommendations travel fast. We’ve spent years building relationships with local operators because we want a booking with us to feel like asking a trusted neighbour for help. If you’ve got a question that’s not covered here — about routes, accessibility, or whether we can work with a particular venue in Dorset — get in touch. We’re happy to chat, and we’ll explain everything in plain terms over the phone or email.
Fancy a quick quote? Use our online form or call us — we’ll match you with the right vehicle, and make sure your group gets there together, on time and with a smile.
