A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Catch a Norfolk Tides Game at Harbor Park
There is perhaps no more iconic sporting experience in Hampton Roads than spending a summer evening at Harbor Park. Home to the Norfolk Tides, the Triple-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, this stadium is frequently cited as one of the best minor league ballparks in the country. Located right on the Elizabeth River, the stadium offers breathtaking views and high-quality baseball. However, parking can be a challenge, especially during fireworks nights or rivalry games against teams like the Durham Bulls. Instead of splitting up your group and fighting for spots in the sprawling lots, rent a charter bus from Charter Bus Norfolk.
Your private bus rental allows your entire group—whether it’s a company outing, a family reunion, or a youth baseball team—to arrive together right at the gate. We can arrange for drop-off and pick-up services so you don't have to walk long distances. Plus, you can start the festivities early! Our buses come equipped with air conditioning to beat the Virginia humidity, and plenty of space for your mitts and caps. After the game, your driver will be waiting to take you home comfortably, or perhaps to a post-game dinner at a nearby spot like Granby Street Pizza. Visit the Tides at Harbor Park, 150 Park Ave, Norfolk, VA 23510.
Cheer on the Norfolk Admirals at Scope Arena
When the weather cools down, the action heats up at the Norfolk Scope Arena. This architectural marvel, known for its massive concrete dome and unique design, is the home ice for the Norfolk Admirals of the ECHL. Hockey games here are loud, exciting, and a staple of Norfolk nightlife. Navigating the streets of downtown Norfolk near Brambleton Avenue during rush hour to get to a 7:00 PM puck drop can be stressful. With a private shuttle bus rental, you can bypass the gridlock stress. We invite fan clubs and group ticket holders to utilize our services for a VIP game day experience.
A charter bus is the perfect solution for keeping warm and comfortable before entering the arena. If you are bringing a youth hockey team to watch the pros, our motorcoaches have massive undercarriage storage bays perfect for storing bulky winter coats or your own team's gear if you are playing a tournament nearby before the show. Inside the bus, you can utilize the PA system to make announcements or play hype music over the sound system. Your driver will handle the downtown one-way streets while you focus on cheering for a goal. The Norfolk Scope Arena is located at 201 E Brambleton Ave, Norfolk, VA 23510. Let Charter Bus Norfolk get you to the ice on time!
Old Dominion University (ODU) Monarchs Football & Basketball
The Old Dominion University Monarchs are the pride of Norfolk collegiate sports. Whether you are heading to S.B. Ballard Stadium for a Saturday football game or Chartway Arena for basketball, the energy on campus is electric. However, campus parking is notoriously difficult for visitors, with limited spots and confusing zones. By booking a charter bus with Charter Bus Norfolk, alumni associations and student organizations can streamline their travel plans. We can drop your group off right near the tailgate zones or the stadium entrance, ensuring you don't miss kickoff or tip-off.
Tailgating is a huge part of the ODU football experience. Our full-sized charter buses offer ample storage space beneath the bus for tents, coolers, folding chairs, and cornhole boards. You can keep your group together, enjoy the pre-game festivities responsibly, and have a friendly, climate-controlled designated driver waiting for you when the game ends. For basketball fans, Chartway Arena hosts intense matchups in Conference USA. A minibus rental is perfect for smaller groups of friends or family heading to see the Monarchs hit the court. Visit S.B. Ballard Stadium at 5115 Hampton Blvd, Norfolk, VA 23529, or Chartway Arena at 4320 Hampton Blvd, Norfolk, VA 23529.
Norfolk State University (NSU) Spartans Athletics
Experience the rich tradition and high-energy atmosphere of Norfolk State University athletics with Charter Bus Norfolk. The Spartans, competing in the MEAC, bring fierce competition to William "Dick" Price Stadium. A huge draw for NSU games isn't just the football—it's the legendary Spartan Legion Marching Band. Groups traveling to see the Battle of the Bay or homecoming festivities will find that a charter bus rental provides the easiest way to navigate the crowds. We often work with community groups, high school bands, and alumni chapters to provide reliable transportation to NSU events.
If you are organizing a trip for prospective students or a large family gathering for Homecoming, a 56-passenger motorcoach ensures everyone stays together. You can utilize onboard WiFi to upload photos of the halftime show in real-time, or use the reclining seats to rest up after a long day of cheering. We understand the layout of the campus and can navigate the traffic around Park Avenue efficiently. Support the Spartans at William "Dick" Price Stadium, 700 Park Ave, Norfolk, VA 23504.
Bus Rentals for Youth Sports and Tournaments
Norfolk and the surrounding Hampton Roads area are hotspots for youth sports tournaments, from AAU basketball and travel soccer to swimming and volleyball. For coaches and team managers, coordinating a caravan of parents driving personal vehicles is a logistical nightmare that often leads to late arrivals and fragmented teams. Charter Bus Norfolk offers a professional solution: rent a bus for your entire team. Keeping athletes together on a single bus fosters team bonding, allows coaches to discuss strategy en route, and ensures that every player arrives at the venue simultaneously, ready to warm up.
Our buses are designed with athletes in mind. The undercarriage storage bays provide plenty of room for oversized equipment bags, uniforms, balls, and medical kits, keeping the aisles clear for players to stretch their legs. Onboard TVs with DVD players allow the team to watch game footage or relax with a movie between tournament matches. Whether you are competing at the Folkes-Stevens Tennis Center at ODU (4400 Parker Ave, Norfolk, VA 23529) or heading to nearby fields in Virginia Beach, we provide comfortable, reliable transportation that parents can trust.
Tailgating and Away Game Transportation

In a luxury charter bus, the journey becomes part of the fun. With reclining seats, footrests, and onboard restrooms, the miles fly by in comfort.
For the ultimate fan experience, book a bus for your tailgating crew. We can transport your group to NFL, NBA, NHL, or MLB games in neighboring cities and states. Your bus serves as your mobile headquarters. You don't have to worry about assigning a designated driver or navigating unfamiliar highways late at night.

Frequently Asked Questions About Norfolk Sports Transportation
How much storage space is there for sports gear?
Full-sized charter buses (56-passenger models) offer a significant amount of storage. They feature spacious undercarriage luggage bays that run the length of the bus, perfect for hockey bags, football pads, golf clubs, coolers, and tents. Inside the cabin, there are overhead bins for personal items like backpacks and duffel bags. If you are renting a smaller minibus, storage may be more limited (often just a rear trunk area), so it is crucial to let our team know exactly what equipment you are bringing so we can match you with the right vehicle size.
Do you shuttle to away games outside of Virginia?
Absolutely! Charter Bus Norfolk specializes in long-distance travel. We can take your team or fan group anywhere in the continental United States. Whether you are heading to North Carolina, Maryland, Pennsylvania, or beyond for a tournament or an away game, The drivers are certified for long-haul trips. For trips involving significant distances, we will help coordinate driver shifts and rest stops to comply with DOT safety regulations, ensuring you arrive on schedule.
How far in advance should we book for a big game?
For major sporting events, especially playoffs, rivalries, or homecomings, demand for charter buses increases significantly. We recommend booking your bus as soon as your schedule is confirmed—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance. This ensures you get the best selection of vehicles and the most competitive pricing. However, we understand that sports schedules can change, and we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever our fleet availability allows. Call us 24/7 at 948-225-0080 to check availability.
Is there parking for the bus at Harbor Park or Scope?
Most major venues in Norfolk, including Harbor Park and the Scope Arena, have designated areas for bus parking, though fees usually apply and are the responsibility of the renting group. However, one of the biggest benefits of renting a charter bus is that you don't necessarily need to pay for parking if you don't want to. Your driver can drop your group off right at the entrance and then park off-site or return at a designated time for pickup. This "drop-and-go" service is highly popular for downtown events where parking is tight.
