CSU Chico Graduation and Campus Event Shuttles
With one search, you can compare buses for CSU Chico's biggest weekends and keep your whole group on the same schedule! CSU Chico Commencement runs multiple ceremonies over two to three days each May at the CSUC Events Center (400 W 1st St, Chico, CA 95929), drawing thousands of families from across Northern California and beyond. Charter buses drop off on the W 1st St campus loop, with staging available on the W 2nd St corridor while your group celebrates inside.
Homecoming at University Stadium (900 W 1st St, Chico, CA 95929) and Wildcat Welcome in late August fill up fast too. Commencement is one of the highest-demand bus weekends in the region — book four to six months out and call 530-267-0060 to lock in your date!
Your bus cannot park in Chico State campus lots or the campus core. Event loading uses authorized yellow zones at the Student Services Center, O’Connell Technology Center, Yolo Hall, Aymer J. Hamilton, and Holt Hall, plus two short-term unloading spots on Warner St; use the Chico State event loading and campus access page for the designated curb locations.
Silver Dollar Fair and Chico Festival Bus Rentals
Chicocharterbusservices.com is how groups get to the Silver Dollar Fair (2357 Fair St, Chico, CA 95928) without the parking scramble every late May and early June! One of the largest fairs in Northern California, the Silver Dollar Fair draws enormous regional crowds to the Silver Dollar Fairgrounds, where charter buses drop off at the main gate on Fair St and large adjacent lots handle motorcoach staging. Downtown Chico festivals like the Chico World Music Festival at City Plaza (Main St & Broadway, Chico, CA 95928) and the weekly Thursday Night Market bring street closures on Main St — a party bus or minibus keeps your group together and off the parking hunt entirely.

Once submitted, you'll land on a results page showing available vehicles, photos, and pricing from a network of transportation companies serving the area through a national booking platform.

Book four to six months in advance for CSU Chico commencement in May. Multiple ceremonies at the CSUC Events Center over two to three days, combined with prom season across Chico Unified School District, make May one of the highest-demand bus weekends in Northern California. Waiting until the last minute means higher rates and limited availability — the earlier you book, the better your options and pricing!
Yes! Charter buses drop off at the main gate on Fair St at the Silver Dollar Fairgrounds, and the large adjacent lots along the Fair St perimeter handle motorcoach staging during the Silver Dollar Fair in late May and early June. Book two to three months out for fair weekend — it's one of the largest fairs in Northern California and bus availability tightens quickly around those dates.
Downtown Chico has no dedicated charter bus loading zone. For El Rey Theatre (230 W 2nd St, Chico, CA 95928) and other downtown venues, buses typically drop off on W 2nd St or W 3rd St and stage on Broadway or Salem St between stops. Street closures during the Thursday Night Market and the Chico Holiday Parade affect Main St between Broadway and Salem, so confirm the event schedule when you plan your itinerary.
Yes! Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. has a large parking lot off E 20th St with ample room for motorcoaches — no advance bus parking reservation is required per general visitor guidance. Guided brewery tours run for 60 or 75 minutes, while special-request large-group tours run 60 to 120 minutes; your bus keeps everyone together through the timed visit using the Sierra Nevada Chico brewery tour details.
It's one of the most visited craft brewery destinations in the country and a natural anchor stop for any Chico brewery tour. Pair it with downtown stops at Feather Falls Brewing and Butte Creek Brewing for a full evening!
Book four to six months in advance for prom in Chico. April and May prom season at Chico High School and Pleasant Valley High School overlaps directly with CSU Chico commencement, meaning the entire Butte County bus market tightens at once. Waiting costs you more money and risks no availability at all.
Call 530-267-0060 right now to lock in your date — the earlier you compare, the more options you'll have to choose from!
