Catch a University of Redlands Bulldogs Game
In Redlands, the community bleeds maroon and gray. The University of Redlands offers a vibrant collegiate sports atmosphere that rivals many larger institutions. Ted Runner Stadium is the place to be on Saturday afternoons in the fall. Home to the Bulldogs football team and track & field squads, this venue offers a picturesque backdrop of the San Bernardino Mountains that makes every game day special. Whether you are an alumni group planning a homecoming tailgate or a student organization looking to support your peers, renting a charter bus to campus is the best way to keep your group together.
Transportation logistics on a college campus can be tricky, especially during big games when parking lots fill up fast. When you book a shuttle with Charter Bus Redlands, your driver can drop your group off right near the entrance of Ted Runner Stadium or Currier Gym for basketball and volleyball matches. For visiting teams competing against the Bulldogs, our full-size charter buses offer ample undercarriage storage for equipment bags, uniforms, and training gear, while the athletes can relax in reclining seats with plenty of legroom to stay fresh for the competition.
Don't forget about the aquatic center! The Thompson Aquatic Center is home to top-tier water polo and swimming events. If you are organizing a travel team for a tournament at the university, a private bus rental ensures that your swimmers and coaching staff arrive together, on time, and ready to compete.
Minor League Action Near Redlands: The Inland Empire 66ers
Just a short drive west on I-10 from Redlands takes you to San Bernardino, home of the Inland Empire 66ers. As the Single-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels, seeing a game at San Manuel Stadium is a fantastic way to spot future MLB stars before they hit the big leagues. This is an incredibly popular destination for corporate outings, summer camps, and family reunions because it offers the thrill of professional baseball at a fraction of the cost—and with a much more intimate atmosphere.
Booking a charter bus rental in Redlands for a 66ers game takes the stress out of the commute. San Manuel Stadium is located right off the highway, but coordinating multiple vehicles for a large group can be a headache. With a private bus, you can turn the ride over to San Bernardino into a pre-game pep rally. Use the onboard PA system to hype up the crowd, or utilize the flat-screen TVs to show highlights of the team's season. Once the game is over—and perhaps after a fireworks show—your driver will be waiting to transport everyone comfortably back to Redlands, eliminating the need for designated drivers or waiting for rideshares.
The Ultimate Tailgate at Toyota Arena
For fans of hockey and basketball, the Toyota Arena in nearby Ontario, California, is a premier destination. Home to the Ontario Reign (AHL affiliate of the LA Kings) and the Ontario Clippers (G-League affiliate of the LA Clippers), this arena hosts high-energy sporting events year-round. Located about 20 minutes from Redlands, it is an easy trip for a fun night out, provided you don't have to fight for parking spaces.
When you rent a bus with Charter Bus Redlands, you elevate the entire experience. We can arrange for a party bus or a spacious motorcoach to shuttle your group from Redlands to Ontario. If you are planning a group outing for your youth hockey team or basketball squad, our buses have plenty of room for everyone. Plus, the high ceilings and climate-controlled cabins ensure that tall athletes travel in comfort. The convenience of curbside drop-off means you skip the long walks from distant parking lots, giving you more time to enjoy concessions and find your seats before the puck drops or the tip-off begins.
Traveling to Los Angeles for Pro Sports from Redlands
Let’s be honest: Redlands is perfectly situated for living, but if you want to see the Dodgers, Lakers, Rams, Chargers, or Kings, you have to brave the Los Angeles traffic. The drive from Redlands to Dodger Stadium or Crypto.com Arena can take anywhere from an hour to two hours depending on the time of day. For a large group, trying to coordinate a caravan through LA traffic is a recipe for disaster.
This is where Charter Bus Redlands truly shines. We specialize in long-distance sporting event transportation. Load up your coolers, grills, and tailgating chairs into the undercarriage luggage bays of a 56-passenger charter bus and let a driver handle the I-10 and I-5 freeways. Your group can relax, play trivia, check stats via onboard WiFi, and enjoy a few drinks (if your group is of age) while en route. We provide direct service to:
- Dodger Stadium: Get dropped off near the gates and avoid the notorious stadium traffic jams.
- SoFi Stadium: See the Rams or Chargers in Inglewood without paying premium prices for multiple parking passes.
- Crypto.com Arena: Perfect for Lakers, Clippers, and Kings fans who want to enjoy the game without the stress of downtown LA driving.
- BMO Stadium: Support LAFC with your entire supporter group in tow.
When the game ends, you won't have to wander through massive parking lots searching for your car or wait in surge-pricing lines for a rideshare. Your bus will be ready to bring you back to Redlands in comfort.
High School Sports and Tournament Travel in the Inland Empire
Redlands is home to powerhouse high school athletics, including Redlands East Valley High School, Redlands High School, and Citrus Valley High School. Whether it is Friday night lights, a regional soccer tournament, or a marching band competition, student-athletes and their equipment need reliable transportation. School buses are fine for short trips, but for longer journeys to tournaments in San Diego, Orange County, or Bakersfield, a charter bus rental offers a superior level of comfort and safety.
Charter Bus Redlands works with school districts and booster clubs to provide top-tier transportation for teams. Our buses come with ample storage for football pads, tubas, soccer nets, and luggage for overnight trips. The reclining seats allow athletes to rest and recover after a hard-fought game, and the onboard entertainment systems allow coaches to review game footage or let students unwind with a movie. Safety is our top priority, and you can trust us to transport your students with the utmost care.
Best Sports Bars and Breweries in Redlands for Post-Game Celebrations
Sometimes, the best seat in the house isn't in the stadium—it's at a local establishment with a cold drink and a big screen. Redlands has a thriving brewery and culinary scene that is perfect for watch parties. If you are organizing a fan club event or a post-game celebration for a local team, renting a minibus to hop between spots is a fun and safe way to celebrate.
Hangar 24 Craft Brewery is a Redlands staple located at the municipal airport. It is an expansive venue with outdoor seating, food trucks, and plenty of space for large groups to gather after a game. Another local favorite is Darby's American Cantina in downtown Redlands, known for its sports-centric atmosphere and ample TVs. By booking a shuttle with us, you ensure that everyone has a designated driver. We can pick your group up from a central location, take you to Hangar 24, shuttle you to downtown State Street for dinner, and ensure everyone gets home safely at the end of the night.
Golfing in Redlands: Transportation for the Links
For those who prefer their sports a bit quieter, Redlands offers excellent golfing opportunities, most notably the historic Redlands Country Club. Established in 1896, it is one of the oldest clubs in the West. If you are organizing a corporate golf retreat, a charity tournament, or a bachelor party outing, a charter bus is the most efficient way to transport your golfers and their clubs.
Golf bags are bulky and difficult to fit into standard cars or rideshares. Our charter buses and minibuses are designed with storage in mind. We can easily accommodate a group of golfers and their clubs, ensuring that expensive equipment is stored securely during transit. We can pick your group up from local hotels, take you to the course for your tee time, and then shuttle you to a celebratory dinner in downtown Redlands afterward. It adds a layer of professionalism and convenience that elevates the entire experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Redlands Sports Transportation
How much does it cost to rent a charter bus for a sports game in Redlands?
Charter bus pricing varies based on several factors, including the size of the bus, the duration of the trip, the distance traveled, and the time of year. For example, a full-day rental to a Dodgers game in LA will cost differently than a four-hour shuttle to a local high school football game. To get an accurate price, call our team at 442-212-8600. We can provide you with a free, personalized quote in minutes based on your specific itinerary.
Can we bring food and drinks on the bus for tailgating?
Absolutely! One of the biggest perks of renting a charter bus for sporting events is the ability to start the tailgate early. You are welcome to bring food and beverages on board. We ask that you keep the bus tidy and avoid glass containers for safety reasons. Your bus will also have plenty of storage for your larger tailgating gear like coolers, grills, and tents in the undercarriage bays.
Where does the bus park at the stadium?
Bus parking policies vary by venue. For local venues like the University of Redlands or San Manuel Stadium, there are usually designated areas for buses. For major venues like SoFi Stadium or Dodger Stadium, you will typically need to purchase a specific oversized vehicle parking pass in advance. The drivers are familiar with navigating these stadiums and will drop your group off as close to the entrance as possible before parking. We recommend checking the specific venue's website for bus parking rules and fees.
How far in advance should we book our bus for a big game?
We recommend booking your charter bus as soon as you have your game schedule or tickets confirmed. For major sporting events (like playoffs, championships, or rivalry games) and during peak travel seasons (spring and fall), buses can book up quickly. Ideally, you should try to reserve your vehicle at least 3 to 6 months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing. However, Charter Bus Redlands serves groups year-round, and we will always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible.
What amenities are available for athletes on the bus?
Our fleet offers a range of amenities designed to keep athletes comfortable and focused. Most full-size charter buses come equipped with reclining seats and plenty of legroom, which is essential for stretching out before or after a game. You can also request buses with WiFi and power outlets so players can listen to music or study. Onboard TV monitors with DVD players are great for reviewing game tapes or watching movies. Additionally, the climate-controlled environment ensures the team stays cool during those hot Redlands afternoons. If you have specific needs, just ask our reservation team when you call!
