Manhattan route note: NYC DOT lists the Harlem River Drive and Brooklyn Bridge among prohibited roadways for charter buses, while parkways and sections of FDR Drive require a Highway Travel Permit, so your bus uses a permitted approach instead of getting trapped on a route it cannot legally take. The NYC DOT charter-bus route and parking guide carries the current roadway rules.

Game-Day Transportation to Madison Square Garden — Without the Midtown Gridlock
What makes getting a group to Madison Square Garden (4 Pennsylvania Plaza, New York, NY 10001) so stressful is not the arena — it’s the 20 blocks of Midtown Manhattan you have to survive to reach it. According to the INRIX 2025 Global Traffic Scorecard, New York City drivers lose 102 hours per year to congestion, the worst in the United States. On a Rangers or Knicks night, 7th Avenue and 8th Avenue lock up starting 90 minutes before tip-off, and NYPD Traffic Control restricts turning movements on 33rd Street near 7th Avenue during major events.
Commercial buses drop off on the 31st Street and 33rd Street curbs on 7th and 8th Avenues, then stage off-site at the Port Authority Bus Terminal (625 8th Ave, New York, NY 10018) or along West Side Highway corridors while your group is inside — and the bus is back at the curb when you walk out, not 30 minutes behind a wall of traffic. One bus, one pickup, and nobody hunting for a cab at midnight on 7th Avenue.
For an accessible Penn Station approach, the no-steps route uses the West End Concourse elevator to 33rd Street and 8th Avenue, followed by the Garden’s 8 Penn Entrance. Your bus can get passengers close to the same 33rd Street and 8th Avenue side before the group heads inside; the Madison Square Garden directions page carries the current entrance and accessibility route.
Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com Will Help You Get Your Group to Yankee Stadium and Citi Field Without the Parking Headache
Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com will help you find the right bus for two of the most logistically demanding stadiums in the New York metro. At Yankee Stadium, oversized vehicle parking passes run approximately $75–$100 per event and must be purchased in advance through Yankees Group Sales — and that is on top of the congestion and the parking scramble along River Avenue. A charter bus drops your group at the designated loading zone on River Avenue between 161st and 162nd Streets, then heads to Lot 14 while you enjoy the game.
At Citi Field (41-01 Roosevelt Ave, Queens, NY 11368), buses use the bus lot north of Citi Field on the west side of the Shea Road intersection, with a baseball-game cost of $80. Compare buses and pricing from a network of providers serving both stadiums — and let the logistics sort themselves out!
Citi Field’s bus lot is commonly called Pork Chop Hill and opens one hour before stadium gates open, so your bus has a named place to wait instead of circling the Flushing streets. For GPS, use 41 Seaver Way, Flushing, NY 11368, and use the Citi Field stadium parking information for the current bus-lot and arrival details.
With Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com, Renting a Charter Bus to MetLife Stadium Is the Smartest Move Your Group Can Make
With Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com, renting a charter bus to MetLife Stadium (1 MetLife Stadium Dr, East Rutherford, NJ 07073) for a Giants or Jets game is the single easiest call your group coordinator will make all season. The stadium sits in East Rutherford, New Jersey — which means your group crosses the Lincoln Tunnel, navigates Route 3 westbound, and then faces the MetLife parking approach, all on a day when 82,500 fans are doing exactly the same thing. Buses use the designated motorcoach lot (Lot L) on the western side of the complex, accessed via MetLife Stadium Drive, with advance passes at $75 per vehicle.
Lots open four hours before kickoff. On game days, plan for 90 minutes from Midtown through the Lincoln Tunnel to the lot — and your bus handles every minute of it while your group is already in tailgate mode. Compare charter buses and pricing for MetLife Stadium right here!
At MetLife Stadium, guest drop-offs and pickups use the roadway between Lots D and E, while charter buses park in Lot L; the stadium’s lots typically open five hours before an event, and overnight parking is not permitted. Your bus unloads at the approved roadway and then stays with the event-day bus plan instead of trying to fit into American Dream’s enclosed parking deck. The MetLife Stadium general event parking page carries the current oversized-vehicle rules.
You Can Count on Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com for Islanders, Nets, and Liberty Game-Day Shuttles Across the Metro
You can count on Charterbusservicesmanhattan.com to find the right bus whether your group is heading to Brooklyn, Long Island, or Newark for game night. At Barclays Center, commercial vehicles use the designated zone on Atlantic Avenue between 5th Avenue and Flatbush Avenue, and buses stage at Atlantic Yards facilities or Red Hook staging areas while your group is inside — contact Guest Services at (917) 618-6100 for event-specific assignments and confirm current details on the Barclays Center getting here page before your visit. At UBS Arena, buses use the dedicated drop-off zone on the south side of the arena off Hempstead Turnpike, with bus parking in Lot 10 arranged through Guest Services at (516) 400-0000.
From Midtown, plan 60–90 minutes via the Queens-Midtown Tunnel and the Belt Parkway. Compare buses for every venue from one form!
Browse a Large Selection of Buses for US Open Tennis, NYC Marathon, and Every Major NYC Sports Event
Browse a large selection of buses for every major event on the New York sports calendar — not just the regular season. The US Open Tennis at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center (46-01 Main St, Flushing, NY 11368) runs late August through early September and draws enormous crowds to Flushing Meadows-Corona Park alongside Citi Field — a charter bus via the Queens-Midtown Tunnel and the Grand Central Parkway keeps your group together and on schedule. The NYC Marathon closes roads across all five boroughs on the first Sunday of November, making private group transportation the only reliable way to move a large group across the city on race day.
New York City FC plays at Yankee Stadium March through October, adding to the Bronx stadium calendar. Whatever brings your group out, compare buses and pricing from a network serving the entire New York metro right here!

Yes. As of January 5, 2025, New York City’s Central Business District Tolling Program charges large trucks and tour buses $21.60 per trip entering Manhattan south of 60th Street during peak hours. This toll applies on top of any Lincoln Tunnel or Queens-Midtown Tunnel tolls your route already crosses.
Congestion pricing costs are not included in a bus rental quote from this site — factor them into your group’s budget separately when planning a Midtown pickup or drop-off.
Commercial buses use the 31st Street and 33rd Street curbs on 7th Avenue and 8th Avenue for active loading and unloading. There is no dedicated on-site charter bus parking lot at MSG — buses stage off-site at the Port Authority Bus Terminal or along West Side Highway corridors between events. NYPD restricts turning movements near 33rd Street and 7th Avenue on major event nights, so plan your approach accordingly.
Confirm current access details with MSG Guest Services before your visit.
Book three to six months out for most New York metro sporting events, and stretch that to six months or more for playoff games, opening day at Yankee Stadium, Giants and Jets home openers at MetLife Stadium, and any MSG event during the holiday stretch from Thanksgiving through New Year’s. Prom season in April and May competes with the same vehicles across the metro. Waiting until the last minute in New York means higher rates and limited availability — the earlier you lock in your date, the more options you have to choose from.
A charter bus through the Lincoln Tunnel is the most reliable option. On game days, allow 90 minutes from Midtown to the stadium. Buses use the designated motorcoach lot (Lot L) on the western side of MetLife Stadium, accessed via Route 3 westbound and MetLife Stadium Drive, with advance parking passes at $75 per vehicle — lots open four hours before kickoff.

Absolutely. Multi-stop itineraries are one of the most common requests for New York sporting event transportation. You can arrange hotel pickups near Penn Station, a pregame stop at a bar in Midtown or the South Bronx, and then a stadium drop-off — all on one bus and one schedule.
When you fill out the quote form, list your stops and timing as accurately as possible so the results reflect your full itinerary. Or call 646-369-1450 and a live agent will build a custom package around every stop you have planned!
