Charter Bus & Shuttle Transportation for FIFA World Cup 2026™ at Gillette Stadium
Seven matches. 60,000+ fans per game. 75% less parking. Your group needs a plan, and we have 160+ vehicles ready to execute it.
Why Smart Groups Are Already Booking Charter Buses for the World Cup
This summer, Gillette Stadium hosts seven FIFA World Cup matches — group stage through quarterfinal, featuring England, France, Morocco, Scotland, Norway, and Ghana. Between June 13 and July 9, it will be the biggest sporting event in New England history. If you’re planning to be there, here’s what the most prepared fans already know.Parking at Gillette drops from 20,000 spots on a normal game day to around 5,000 for World Cup matches, with FIFA security zones taking up the rest. The spots that remain will run $150 to $600 per vehicle. Five of the seven matches kick off on weekday afternoons, and the MBTA’s expanded commuter rail service will only reach about a third of the stadium’s capacity.
The groups who’ve already reached out to us saw this coming. They’re not worried about parking or traffic — because they don’t have to be.
A Local Motion charter bus means your group travels together, arrives on time, and leaves on your schedule. No parking costs, no traffic stress, no one missing kickoff. Whether you’re organizing a fan trip, hosting corporate clients, or running hotel shuttles, we handle the logistics from door to stadium and back.
We’ve been moving New England fans to the big moments for years. The World Cup is the biggest one yet — and spots are filling up.

Fan Group Shuttles
Heading to the match with family, friends, or your supporters club? We run roundtrip shuttles from downtown Boston hotels, Logan Airport, the suburbs, and other pickup locations directly to Gillette Stadium. Choose from 55-passenger deluxe motor coaches for large groups or 23 to 27-passenger mini-coaches for smaller parties. No parking fees, no designated driver debate, no post-match traffic headache.
Corporate Hospitality Transportation
If you are hosting clients or executives at the World Cup, the experience starts before they reach the stadium. Our Sprinter-style corporate vans and deluxe coaches offer Wi-Fi, climate control, and reclining seats. We coordinate timing around your hospitality schedule so your guests arrive relaxed and on time. This is the kind of detail that turns a good client event into one they remember.
Hotel-to-Stadium Shuttle Programs
Boston-area hotels will see a surge of international guests this summer. We partner with hotels, resorts, and conference venues to build match-day shuttle programs. We handle route planning, scheduling, and on-site coordination so your property can offer guests a seamless transportation experience without managing it in-house.
Football Club & Federation Charters
Visiting national teams and their delegations need reliable ground transportation between base camps, training sites, hotels, airports, and the stadium. France is basing its operations in downtown Boston, and Ghana is training in nearby Rhode Island.
