Heading to Duluth, Brainerd, or the North Shore? Find Your Bus Here

Whether your group is heading to the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center (350 Harbor Dr, Duluth, MN 55802) for a concert, spending a fall weekend on the North Shore of Lake Superior, or making the run up to Grand Casino Mille Lacs (777 Grand Ave, Onamia, MN 56359) for an overnight casino trip, Charterbusservicesminneapolis.com makes it easy to compare minibuses and motorcoaches from a large network of providers serving Minneapolis. Your group rides together, and the traffic is somebody else's problem.

Concert-night parking at the DECC is not a guess: from I-35, take Lake Avenue exit #256B, turn onto Harbor Drive, and use the separate Loading Dock/Bus Parking area shown on the DECC parking guide. Your bus skips the 8 feet 2 inches-clearance public ramp and gets your group to the waterfront without a low-clearance detour.
If anyone in your group needs step-free access, the DECC places accessible parking near Entrance B at the City Side Convention Center and Entrance E at AMSOIL Arena, with elevators connecting to the skywalk. Your bus can unload passengers at the event entrance before parking, keeping the accessible arrival simple; the DECC parking page identifies the entrances and elevator route.

Book three to six months out for most long-distance trips from Minneapolis. For high-demand periods — Vikings away-game weekends to Chicago or Green Bay, summer Fridays heading north toward Brainerd or Duluth, the Minnesota State Fair at the end of August, and prom season in late April and May — six months or more gives you the best vehicle selection and pricing. Waiting until the last minute on a peak-demand date almost always means higher rates and fewer buses to choose from.
Absolutely. Multi-stop itineraries are one of the most common long-distance setups booked through the network. A group heading from Minneapolis to Chicago on I-94 might add a suburban pickup in Maple Grove or Bloomington, a fuel stop in Madison, and a hotel drop-off before the final destination.
List every stop when you fill out the quote form — or give them to a live agent at 612-288-1177 — and the pricing you receive already accounts for the full route and total hours.
Full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches in the network typically include reclining seats, climate control, onboard WiFi, individual power outlets, overhead storage, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays — everything your group needs for a 4- to 7-hour run to Chicago or a multi-day trip to Medora. Smaller minibuses carry many of the same amenities in a more compact package. Specific features vary by vehicle, so mention what matters most to your group when you request your quote and compare what's available!
Yes. Multi-day packages are available through the network, which is exactly what you need for an overnight casino weekend at Grand Casino Hinckley, a two-day run to Chicago, or a summer trip out to the Medora Musical in North Dakota. Just share your full itinerary — including all overnight dates and stops — when you request your quote.
A live agent at 612-288-1177 can also help you put together a custom multi-day package built around your group's exact schedule.
For most groups of 40 or more making the 410-mile run to Chicago or the 240-mile run to Fargo on I-94, a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach is the most comfortable and cost-effective choice — the onboard restroom and large luggage bays alone make a 6-hour ride significantly easier. For smaller groups of 15 to 35, a minibus handles the same routes comfortably at a lower price point. Compare both side by side in under 30 seconds using the online quote tool, or call 612-288-1177 and a live agent will help you match the right bus to your headcount and itinerary!
