Party Bus Hire in Edinburgh

If you’re planning a night that should start the moment you leave the house, Party Bus Hire in Edinburgh is a brilliant way to keep everyone together and turn travel into part of the celebration. At Party Buses we’ve spent more than 20 years working with trusted operators across the UK to deliver chauffeur-driven, fully insured vehicles — from compact limo buses to larger luxury party coaches — making it simple to compare availability and book the perfect ride.

Fleet and Features

Our fleet covers the lot: compact 12–16 seater limo buses, 16 seater party bus UK options, and roomy 20–24 seater luxury party coaches. Each vehicle is set up for celebration — LED lighting, bassy sound systems, bar areas, dance-friendly spaces and even karaoke on request — so you get the feel of a night out the moment the doors close.

Safety and professionalism

Every booking through Party Buses connects you to chauffeur-driven party bus services where drivers are vetted, licensed and familiar with Edinburgh and the wider Lothian routes. Vehicles are maintained to high standards and fully insured, so you can enjoy the music pulsing through the cabin and friends laughing without worrying about logistics.

Compare vehicles

Picking between a limo bus, a stretch limousine, a Hummer limo, luxury minibus or an MPV depends on your group and the vibe you want. A Compare vehicles approach helps: choose stretch limousines or Hummer limos for a smaller, showy arrival; go for a limo bus or party coach when you want everyone together, space to dance and a proper on-board atmosphere. Luxury minibuses and MPVs are great economical options for shuttles or quieter groups.

Common occasions

We see party buses hired for birthdays, proms, weddings, hen and stag parties, race days, concerts, festivals and big nights out across the city and surrounding towns. Packages can be one-way transfers, round trips or multi-stop nights that let you hop between venues without leaving anyone behind.

Weddings, hens and stags

For wedding parties and stag/hen dos, a chauffeur-driven party bus keeps the group together from the hotel to the ceremony, reception or a club in Leith, the Old Town or along Lothian Road. It’s a relaxed, fun way to move a wedding party between venues while keeping everyone safe.

Booking tips and money-saving ideas

If you want to get the best rates, book early for busy dates and consider mid-week or daytime hires for cheaper slots. Split a large party across two smaller buses if that keeps costs down, or book a larger bus out and an MPV for the quieter return. Sharing the fare among friends or choosing a one-way party bus with a cheaper minibus return can be smart and practical.
