Charter Bus Parking & Dropoff Guide to Easton Sports Venues & Arenas
Through a network of independent transportation providers serving Easton, the Lehigh Valley, and all of Pennsylvania, you can compare 15- to 35-passenger minibuses, 15- to 50-passenger party buses, and 56-passenger charter buses in one easy search! Review our stadium breakdown below so your driver and group know every drop-off curb, staging zone, and tailgating lot before kickoff.
Fisher Stadium (Home of the Lafayette Leopards (NCAA Division I football, Patriot League))
With Easton
Major Roadways to Fisher Stadium
Groups traveling into Easton typically take US-22 (Lehigh Valley Thruway) to the 4th Street or 13th Street exits before heading north up the hill via Cattell Street or Sullivan Trail. Fans coming from New Jersey cross the Delaware River via I-78 or the Free Bridge into Downtown Easton. Keep in mind that the residential streets surrounding the Lafayette College campus are narrow and steep. Your experienced driver will stick to approved campus arteries like McCartney Street and High Street for a smooth approach.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Fisher Stadium
Charter buses can drop off fans and visiting athletic teams along Hamilton Street or near the Markle Parking Deck entrance right beside the stadium gates. Because campus curbs are tight, have your whole group ready to step off quickly so your driver doesn’t block College Hill traffic!
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Fisher Stadium
On-campus oversized vehicle parking near Fisher Stadium is extremely limited on game days, especially during the historic Lafayette-Lehigh Rivalry game! Visiting team buses are assigned staging spots by Lafayette Athletics near Pierce Street or the Kirby Sports Center. Private fan charter buses and party buses are often directed off-campus to Lafayette’s Metzgar Fields Athletic Complex about three miles north, where shuttle buses run to the stadium. Always coordinate bus parking passes with the Lafayette Ticket Office in advance.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Expect temporary road closures and one-way traffic patterns along High Street, Hamilton Street, and March Street starting two hours before kickoff. Plan to arrive on College Hill at least 90 minutes early to beat the bottleneck on Cattell Street!
Coca-Cola Park (Home of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs (Triple-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies))
Just 20 minutes west of Easton, Coca-Cola Park is a premier spot for group outings and summer baseball! Fill out one quick form to compare minibuses and charter buses with cold A/C for your trip.
Major Roadways to Coca-Cola Park
Your charter bus will take US-22 West straight from Easton to the Airport Road South (PA-987) exit in Allentown, then turn east onto American Parkway. This direct highway route makes it a breeze to bring youth baseball teams, corporate groups, or birthday parties from Northampton County.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Coca-Cola Park
Drivers enter the ballpark complex via IronPigs Way off American Parkway and can unload passengers near the Main Gate Plaza on the south side of the stadium. After the final out, gather your entire group outside the Majestic Clubhouse Store before texting your driver to pull up. Active loading zones have strict 5-minute idling limits.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Coca-Cola Park
Coca-Cola Park offers spacious on-site surface lots that easily accommodate full-size 56-passenger motorcoaches and minibuses! Bus parking costs $15 to $20 per vehicle, and stadium staff direct oversized buses to the outer perimeter of the Main Preferred or General Parking Lots where tailgating is permitted before the first pitch.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Traffic backs up heavily along Airport Road (PA-987) and American Parkway when weekday evening games overlap with Lehigh Valley rush hour. Leave Easton at least 60 to 90 minutes before game time so your group can breeze through security and grab food before the first inning. Post-game traffic flows smoothly with police directing stadium exits.
PPL Center (Home of the Lehigh Valley Phantoms (AHL affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers))
Easton
Major Roadways to PPL Center
From Easton, your bus will travel west on US-22 to PA-145 South (MacArthur Road / 7th Street) or take I-78 West to the Lehigh Street exit into Center City Allentown. Both routes lead directly to the arena’s downtown grid.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at PPL Center
Because PPL Center sits right in the middle of Downtown Allentown, curb space is tightly managed by traffic officers on event nights. Your charter bus can drop passengers off along the designated loading zones on 7th Street (near the Air Products Gate) or along Linden Street on the north side of the building. Do not attempt to stop along Hamilton Street during peak pre-game closures. After the final buzzer, meet your group inside the 8th Street or 7th Street lobby before calling your driver to the curb.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at PPL Center
Attached downtown parking decks like the Orange Deck and Spiral Deck have vertical clearance limits between 6’8” and 7’6”, meaning full-size charter buses and high-roof minibuses cannot enter. Instead, after dropping your group off at the gate, your driver will relocate to an off-site surface lot arranged through the Allentown Parking Authority or stage near the Coca-Cola Park / Lehigh Street commercial corridors. Remember that Pennsylvania law restricts commercial vehicle idling to 5 minutes!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Blocks of Hamilton Street between 7th and 8th Streets frequently close to vehicle traffic before Phantoms games and sold-out shows. Plan to arrive in Downtown Allentown 60 minutes early to beat downtown gridlock.
Lincoln Financial Field (Home of the Philadelphia Eagles (NFL))
Find the ultimate game-day ride from Easton down to the South Philadelphia Sports Complex for an Eagles game at Lincoln Financial Field! Whether you want a 20-passenger party bus with LED lighting and Bluetooth sound or a 56-passenger motorcoach with an onboard restroom and undercarriage storage for coolers, you can compare everything on one screen. No account needed!
Major Roadways to Lincoln Financial Field
Traveling from Easton to South Philly takes about 90 minutes to two hours via PA-611 South or I-78 West to I-476 South (Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension). From I-476 South, your driver merges onto I-76 East (Schuylkill Expressway) or I-95 South and exits directly at Broad Street (PA-611 / Exit 17) or Packer Avenue into the stadium complex.
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Lincoln Financial Field
If your charter bus is only dropping off and picking up without staying to tailgate, drivers can use the designated group unloading zones along 11th Street or Pattison Avenue outside the stadium gates. Make sure your whole group exchanges cell numbers with the driver so you can coordinate a single pickup spot away from the Rideshare Lot in Lot D after the game.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Lincoln Financial Field
Oversized vehicles, party buses, and charter buses park in designated tailgating lots—primarily Lots M, N, and O north of Pattison Avenue, or Lot K—for an oversized parking fee ($160 for buses/RVs). Tailgating lots open five hours before kickoff, giving your Easton fan group plenty of time to fire up the grill right by the bus!
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Game-day congestion on I-76, I-95, and Pattison Avenue is intense, especially when the Flyers or 76ers have an overlapping game across the street at Xfinity Mobile Arena. After the final whistle, the Philadelphia Police Department converts several lanes around Broad Street and Darien Street into one-way outbound routes. Build an extra hour into your departure from Easton so you never miss kickoff!
Citizens Bank Park (Home of the Philadelphia Phillies (MLB))
For the best group trip from Easton to see the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, compare vehicles through Easton
Major Roadways to Citizens Bank Park
Just like trips to the Linc, your driver will head south from the Lehigh Valley on I-476 South (Northeast Extension) to I-76 East, taking the Packer Avenue, Darien Street, or Broad Street exits right into the Sports Complex. Having a driver handle the Schuylkill Expressway traffic means everyone in your group can relax in reclining seats on the ride back to Easton!
Charter Bus Drop-Off & Pickup at Citizens Bank Park
Charter buses can drop off and pick up passengers along Citizens Bank Way on the west side of the ballpark or along Pattison Avenue near the Third Base Gate and Left Field Gate. Have everyone meet by the Mike Schmidt Statue outside the Third Base Gate after the ninth inning so you can walk to the bus together.
Charter Bus Parking & Waiting at Citizens Bank Park
Oversized bus parking at Citizens Bank Park costs $50 for buses and motorcoaches. If your group wants to tailgate before the game, your bus can park in Lots M and N off Darien Street, which open five hours prior to first pitch. Non-tailgating charter buses are directed to the dedicated bus lot between Lots V and R on Pattison Avenue, which opens 2.5 hours before game time.
Event-Day Closures & Traffic
Streets immediately surrounding the ballpark—including Citizens Bank Way and sections of 10th Street and Darien Street—restrict traffic before and after the game. Depart Easton at least three hours before first pitch to allow plenty of time for Turnpike travel and tailgating!
Quick Tips for Easton Game-Day Charter Bus Groups
One smart way to keep your Easton sports trip running like clockwork is to prep your group before game day! Always comply with Pennsylvania’s 5-minute commercial vehicle anti-idling law (and Philadelphia’s strict 2-minute limit) by gathering your entire group at the gate before calling your driver to the pickup curb. Remember to budget separately for stadium bus parking passes and Pennsylvania Turnpike tolls, as those outside venue fees are not included in your initial group transportation quote. Finally, after you book online through the national booking platform, our confirmation department will call you directly to verify every pickup, drop-off, and parking stop on your itinerary!
