Long-Distance Charters to Kansas City, Arrowhead, and the Big 12 Tournament
Busrentallawrence.com is here to make your next Kansas City trip the easiest one yet. The Kansas City metro sits just 40 miles east of Lawrence on I-70, but getting a large group there — and back — without the parking nightmare is a whole different challenge. At GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium (1 Arrowhead Dr, Kansas City, MO 64129), charter buses use the Missouri Welcome Center between Gates 1 and 2 on Blue Ridge Cutoff for drop-off and pickup, then park on the north side of Dubiner Circle behind Kauffman Stadium with a Bus/RV parking pass; bus spaces are first-come, first-served.
Your bus unloads everyone at the Welcome Center and handles the postgame move to the bus lot, so you skip the parking scramble without sending anyone hunting for the ride home. Whether your group is headed to Arrowhead Stadium for a Chiefs game, T-Mobile Center (1407 Grand Boulevard, Kansas City, MO 64106) for a concert or the Big 12 Tournament in March, or Kauffman Stadium (1 Royal Way, Kansas City, MO 64129) for a Royals game, one bus keeps everyone together on I-70 and skips the parking scramble entirely. Compare buses and pricing for your Kansas City date in under 30 seconds right here!

Yes — and Lawrence groups do it every season. Trips to Waco at McLane Stadium, Fort Worth at Amon G. Carter Stadium, Austin at Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium, and Lubbock at Jones AT&T Stadium are all available through the network. These are multi-day charters given the distances — Waco is roughly 500 miles south on I-35, and Austin is closer to 700.
Full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches with reclining seats, WiFi, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays are the right call for hauls like these. Mention your full itinerary and overnight stops when you request your quote.
Book three to six months out for most long-distance trips, and stretch that to six months or more for the highest-demand dates in the Lawrence market. KU home football Saturdays at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium, Allen Fieldhouse basketball games through March, KU commencement in May, and the Big 12 Tournament at T-Mobile Center in Kansas City all pull from the same regional bus pool at the same time. The Sunflower Showdown against K-State in Manhattan is one of the tightest single dates of the year.
Prom season across Lawrence USD 497 — Lawrence High and Free State High — runs April through May and books out early too. Waiting costs more and risks no availability at all.
No — overnight accommodations for your group are separate from the bus rental and are not included in any quote from this site. For multi-day charters to destinations like Denver, Oklahoma City, or West Virginia, your group will need to arrange its own hotel rooms independently. The bus rental covers the vehicle and the transportation; lodging is arranged outside the booking.
When you request your quote, mention that the trip is multi-day so the network can match you with the right vehicle and package for the full duration of the trip.
Kansas City International Airport (MCI) is roughly 50 miles northeast of Lawrence via I-70 East to I-435 North — about 50 to 60 minutes off-peak. During morning rush hours between 7 and 9 AM and afternoon congestion between 4 and 7 PM, the I-70 corridor through the Kansas City metro can add 20 to 45 minutes. For groups catching early morning flights, build in extra buffer and set your pickup window accordingly.
MCI's new consolidated terminal opened in February 2023, and all airlines now operate from one building — commercial vehicle pickup and drop-off is on the lower Arrivals level.
Yes — multi-stop and multi-city itineraries are available through the network. A common Lawrence example is a Big 12 road trip that hits Kansas City for the conference tournament, then continues south toward Oklahoma City or Norman for a game the following weekend. You can also build itineraries that combine an airport transfer to MCI with a pre-flight stop in Overland Park or a post-arrival dinner in the Power & Light District.
