American Family Field (Home of the Milwaukee Brewers)
Milwaukee
Major Roadways to American Family Field
Your driver can reach the ballpark right off I-94 at the Zoo Interchange or Marquette Interchange via Brewers Boulevard (Miller Park Way / WI-175). Groups riding in from Wauwatosa or West Allis often use Bluemound Road (US-18) or National Avenue to bypass freeway backups. If you are coming from downtown Milwaukee, Canal Street offers a direct route straight toward the east stadium lots. Planning your route ahead of time keeps your group out of gridlock and maximizes tailgating time!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at American Family Field
Charter buses that are only dropping off and picking up passengers can use the designated staging zone north of the Uecker Lot along Yount Drive, accessed via Mitchell Boulevard off Bluemound Road. Your whole group steps off together just a short walk from the Home Plate and Left Field entrances, then meets back at Yount Drive after the final out!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at American Family Field
Planning to tailgate around the bus before the first pitch? Oversized vehicles and motorcoaches park in the designated bus stalls in the Uecker Lot or the Molitor Lot on the north side of the stadium! Advance bus parking passes are strongly recommended through the Brewers ticket office, and lots generally open three hours before regular games so your driver can park and stay right with your group.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Expect heavy traffic on I-94 East and West and along Brewers Boulevard starting two hours before first pitch, especially when weekday afternoon games overlap with Milwaukee rush hour! After the 7th inning, local police and stadium staff reconfigure lanes around Selig Drive, Yount Drive, and Canal Street into outbound-only routes to clear the lots. Build in an extra 45 to 60 minutes of travel buffer so nobody misses a single inning!
Fiserv Forum (Home of the Milwaukee Bucks)
You can count on Milwaukee
Major Roadways to Fiserv Forum
Drivers heading into downtown Milwaukee typically take I-43 / I-94 and exit at McKinley Avenue (Exit 71C) or Fond du Lac Avenue / WI-145, which feed directly toward the arena district. From the lakefront or East Side, Water Street and Juneau Avenue connect smoothly into the Deer District. Using McKinley Avenue helps your bus steer clear of tight turns on congested downtown side streets!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Fiserv Forum
Charter buses load and unload passengers curbside along the north side of West Juneau Avenue between Vel R. Phillips Avenue and North 6th Street, right across from the Deer District plaza. City of Milwaukee rules limit commercial idling to 5 minutes, so have your group gathered outside the Johnson Controls Entrance before calling your driver to the curb! Your confirmation team will verify your exact pickup corner before game day.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Fiserv Forum
Because the 5th Street Parking Structure and Highland Structure have vertical height clearances that cannot fit full-size motorcoaches, charter buses cannot park inside the arena garages. Instead, your driver can reserve surface oversized parking near 6th Street and State Street or stage off-site at commercial surface lots near the Menomonee Valley until you text for pickup!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On Bucks game days and major concert nights, Vel R. Phillips Avenue between Highland Avenue and Juneau Avenue—along with sections of Juneau Avenue bordering the Deer District—closes to vehicle traffic hours before doors open. Pedestrian crowds spill across Old World Third Street and 6th Street after the event ends. Arriving at least 90 minutes early ensures a quick curbside drop-off before downtown traffic backs up!
Camp Randall Stadium (Home of the Wisconsin Badgers)
Instead of splitting fans into a caravan of cars for a Saturday college football road trip, book a long-distance charter bus from Milwaukee to Camp Randall Stadium to watch the Wisconsin Badgers! You'll get reclining seats, onboard WiFi, and a restroom for the 80-mile ride out to Madison.
Major Roadways to Camp Randall Stadium
Groups traveling west from Milwaukee take I-94 West for about 75 minutes before merging onto US-12 / US-18 (West Beltline Highway) in Madison. From the Beltline, exit north onto Park Street or Midvale Boulevard to approach Monroe Street and Regent Street near the UW–Madison campus!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Camp Randall Stadium
For single-game group drop-offs without reserved stadium lot permits, charter buses typically unload passengers along designated sections of Monroe Street, Regent Street, or near the Engineering Drive loop north of the stadium. Visiting team buses use specified secure gates along Breese Terrace. Because post-game pedestrian crowds pack every sidewalk after "Jump Around," confirm your exact meetup landmark with your driver before heading through the gates!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Camp Randall Stadium
Dedicated game-day charter bus parking near Camp Randall is located in Lot 60 or Lot 76 near the University Bay Drive corridor on the west end of campus, which must be arranged in advance through UW Transportation Services. If on-campus bus lots are sold out, your driver can stage off-site near the Alliant Energy Center off Rimrock Road and return at your scheduled pickup time!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Madison police close Breese Terrace entirely on football Saturdays and enforce strict turn restrictions and temporary lane closures along Monroe Street, Regent Street, and Randall Avenue starting three hours before kickoff. Combined with game-day traffic on I-94 between Milwaukee and Madison, we recommend departing Milwaukee at least four hours before kickoff so your group can enjoy pre-game festivities along Regent Street stress-free!
UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena (Home of the Milwaukee Wave)
It's a breeze getting student sections, hockey teams, and soccer fans to UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena when you compare group transportation services on Milwaukee
Major Roadways to UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena
Situated right in the heart of the Wisconsin Center District alongside the Baird Center and Miller High Life Theatre, UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena is easily accessed via I-43 at the Kilbourn Avenue exit (Exit 72B) or I-794 into downtown. Local surface routes like North 6th Street, State Street, and Wells Street guide your bus straight to the arena perimeter. Your driver will pick the clearest approach based on downtown event traffic!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena
Your charter bus or 18-passenger minibus can drop off and pick up passengers along the designated curb lanes on West Kilbourn Avenue (south side of the building) or West State Street (north side of the arena) between Vel R. Phillips Avenue and North 6th Street. Since active loading zones allow only brief stops, make sure your whole group is assembled inside the lobby before signaling your driver to pull up!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena
While the adjacent 5th Street and convention center garages have low overhead clearances, oversized surface bus parking can be coordinated nearby along North 6th Street, under the I-794 viaduct lots, or at commercial staging areas near the Potawatomi Casino Hotel corridor in the Menomonee Valley. Your bus waits just minutes away and pulls right back to Kilbourn Avenue when the game wraps up!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Because UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena sits just two blocks south of Fiserv Forum and next door to the Baird Center, overlapping conventions, Bucks games, and Admirals matches can cause heavy congestion on Kilbourn Avenue, 6th Street, and Vel R. Phillips Avenue. Plan to arrive 60 to 90 minutes before game time so your group breezes right inside!
Horlick Field (Home of the Racine Raiders)
Waiting around on callbacks from a single bus operator is a thing of the past when you book a team charter bus or fan shuttle down to Horlick Field to see the minor-league Racine Raiders or local baseball tournaments! Compare 35-passenger minibuses and full-size motorcoaches in seconds. We serve Milwaukee, Racine, Kenosha, and all of Southeastern Wisconsin!
Major Roadways to Horlick Field
Traveling south from Milwaukee takes about 35 to 45 minutes via I-94 South to WI-20 East (Washington Avenue) or via scenic WI-32 (Douglas Avenue) into Racine, connecting north onto North Memorial Drive and Rapids Drive!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Horlick Field
Charter buses can pull directly along the east side of North Memorial Drive or near the High Street entrance on the south side of Horlick Athletic Field for curbside group unloading. Because Horlick Field sits in a residential and park corridor along the Root River, drivers must avoid blocking residential driveways and must observe local 5-minute idling limits. Coordinate a single post-game meetup spot outside the main Memorial Drive ticket gate so everyone boards at once!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Horlick Field
The small paved lot immediately adjacent to Horlick Field fills quickly on Raiders game nights and has tight turning radii for 45-foot motorcoaches. Visiting team buses are typically assigned reserved staging along the stadium perimeter on High Street or North Memorial Drive, while extra fan buses can stage nearby along Pershing Park Drive by the lakefront or at overflow lots near Horlick High School on Rapids Drive!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
On Saturday nights when the Racine Raiders take the field, local traffic builds steadily along North Memorial Drive, State Street, and High Street starting an hour before kickoff. Construction along I-94 or weekend summer festival traffic near the Racine lakefront can also add 15 to 20 minutes to your drive down from Milwaukee or Oak Creek. Building a 30-minute buffer into your schedule gives athletes plenty of time for warmups and lets fans grab concessions before kickoff!
