Brampton coach and charter bus hire

Many Brampton bus charters move large groups a short distance: banquet guests to halls near Steeles Avenue, crowds to the CAA Centre, families to Pearson. The work is in the timing and the stops, not the kilometres.

Weddings and banquets on Steeles Avenue

Pearson Convention Center, at Steeles Avenue East and Airport Road, seats about 2,500 and has 16 meeting rooms, free on-site parking and direct access to both roads. Hotels along Airport Road and at Highway 410 and Steeles are close by, so a shuttle loop can cover several of them.

For a wedding, send the guest count at each hotel, the ceremony and reception addresses and the time of the last run home. Late finishes are common. Plan the final departure before the night starts, not during it.

Downtown: the Rose Theatre and Garden Square

Parking for the Rose Theatre is the Market Square garage underneath the building. Agree a coach set-down point downtown with the venue in advance. Brampton GO station is about a five-minute walk away, which helps if part of the group arrives by train. Garden Square beside the theatre hosts free summer events.
