Game Day Charter Buses to Iowa State and Iowa Hawkeyes Events
Get your Ankeny fan group to Jack Trice Stadium (1732 S 4th St, Ames, IA 50011) for a Cyclones game without splitting everyone into a caravan of cars on I-35! Iowa State University is about 30 miles north of Ankeny — a straightforward run that becomes a whole lot more fun when the whole group rides together, the tailgate energy builds on the way up, and nobody has to worry about parking on a packed game-day campus. Hawkeyes fans making the longer run to Kinnick Stadium (1 Elliot Dr, Iowa City, IA 52242) — roughly 100 miles southeast via I-80 — will love the comfort of a full-size charter bus with reclining seats, WiFi, and onboard restrooms for the trip.
Compare buses and pricing for both routes right here in seconds!
The parking problem is real at Jack Trice Stadium: charter bus parking is $50 cash, available first-come, first-served, and inquiries must reach Iowa State Athletics at least two days before the game. Your charter bus gets the group to Ames together and gives you a clear game-day parking cost to plan around.
Iowa State Fair and Des Moines Concert Shuttles From Ankeny
Coordinating a group for the Iowa State Fair at the Iowa State Fairgrounds (3000 E Grand Ave, Des Moines, IA 50317) every August means dealing with some of the most congested parking in the state — tens of thousands of attendees flooding Grand Avenue and E 30th Street on peak weekend days. A charter bus or minibus from Ankeny drops your group near the fairgrounds gates and picks everyone up when you're ready, no parking battle required. The same logic applies to concerts and events at Wells Fargo Arena (233 Center St, Des Moines, IA 50309) and the Des Moines Civic Center (221 Walnut St, Des Moines, IA 50309).
One bus, one pickup, one drop-off — and the night runs on your schedule. Compare available buses for your date right now!
The fairgrounds' physical location is East 30th Street and East University Avenue, but the official GPS address is 3000 East Grand Avenue, Des Moines, IA 50317; during the Iowa State Fair, the fairgrounds suggest entering the parking area at E 36th Street because a left turn into the grounds at E 33rd may not be allowed at certain times. Your bus follows the route that avoids the wrong entrance and gets your group to the fair without a last-minute turn-around; see the official Iowa State Fairgrounds maps and directions.
Ankeny Prom, Homecoming, and School Event Transportation
That's two large high schools in one district — Ankeny High School (1155 SW Cherry St, Ankeny, IA 50023) and Ankeny Centennial High School (1302 NW 18th St, Ankeny, IA 50023) — which means prom season in April and May is one of the busiest stretches of the year for buses across the Des Moines metro. Add homecoming, state tournament travel to Wells Fargo Arena for basketball and wrestling, and DMACC graduation ceremonies at the main campus (2006 S Ankeny Blvd, Ankeny, IA 50023), and the calendar fills fast. Book as early as possible — ideally three to six months out for prom and graduation weekends — to lock in the bus you want at the best available price. Busrentalankeny.com makes it easy to compare party buses, minibuses, and charter buses for any school event!
Ankeny Wedding and Private Event Shuttle Buses
No matter where your wedding reception, rehearsal dinner, or private celebration takes you — a venue in downtown Des Moines, a banquet hall in Altoona, or a winery in the surrounding countryside — a wedding shuttle bus keeps your guests together and on schedule from the first hotel pickup to the last drop-off of the night. Guests staying along the US-69 corridor in Ankeny can be looped into a single pickup route, and the bus handles the I-35 run into Des Moines so nobody has to navigate unfamiliar roads after a long night of celebrating. You can even request white, black, or silver buses to match your wedding colors.
