First-time visitors to Truist Point usually picture a big-league stadium with a sea of asphalt around it. What they get instead is a ballpark tucked onto a single downtown block, bordered by N. Elm Street, Gatewood Avenue, Lindsay Street, and Church Avenue — and gameday parking to match. There is no 10,000-space lot here.
There are three small surface lots, a short run of ADA spaces, and whatever street parking downtown High Point has left over. Split a group of 20 or 40 people across that, and somebody is walking in from several blocks away.
A charter bus or party bus skips the whole problem. One vehicle pulls up to the curb, your group unloads at the gate, and the bus clears out to wait nearby instead of hunting for one of those small lots. Below is exactly how the drop-off, the parking, the gates, and the bag policy work at Truist Point — pulled from the ballpark's own published pages — plus what size vehicle fits your group and what shapes the price.

Why Rent a Party Bus or Charter Bus to Truist Point?
Rockers games run all summer, and every one of them means the same math problem: three small lots, one downtown block, and a group that's bigger than one car. Send everyone separately and you're coordinating who parks where, who's walking farther, and who's stuck circling for a spot on a residential side street once the lots fill. Send one bus, and that math disappears.
A High Point charter bus rental keeps the group together from pickup to the gate and back, with everyone dropped at the same curb instead of scattered across three lots and a handful of metered blocks. A party bus rental adds a built-in sound system and lighting for a group that wants the outing to start before first pitch, not after it. Either way, the group arrives together, and nobody has to sit out the game as a designated transportation provider.
Charter Bus & Party Bus Drop-Off at Truist Point
Truist Point uses three named gates, and each one sits on a different cross street. The Home Plate Gate is at Gatewood Avenue and Lindsay Street, the Center Field Gate is at Church Avenue and Elm Street, and the Right Field Gate opens onto Appling Way, according to the ballpark's own Truist Point ballpark guide. Gates open 45 minutes before first pitch, not earlier, so there is no reason to stage a bus at the curb any sooner than that.
For a bus, the Home Plate Gate is the natural choice. The ballpark's own accessible drop-off point sits at the Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street intersection, with ramps built into both the Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street entrances, per the venue's Truist Point ADA services page. That same curb works for a charter bus or party bus load-in: it's a real vehicle drop point with a ramp, not a car-only space wedged between meters.
Drop your group at the Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street curb, near the Home Plate Gate, and everyone walks in together on the ramped entrance the ballpark already built for accessible arrivals — instead of hunting for a legal spot to unload downtown.
Truist Point Parking: Why a Bus Beats the Three Gameday Lots
Truist Point's own parking page lists exactly three lots for gameday cars, and every one of them is a small surface lot on a residential-scale block, not a stadium deck. Per the Truist Point parking page, all three run $5 per game and open one hour before first pitch:
| Lot | Address | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| First Base VIP | 214 Lindsay Street | Reserved for suite and loge box holders |
| Third Base Preferred | 218 Gatewood Avenue | General preferred parking, opens 1 hour before first pitch |
| Home Plate Preferred | 318 Westwood Avenue | General preferred parking, opens 1 hour before first pitch |
ADA parking is separate: 24 spaces run along Gatewood Avenue, first-come, first-served. None of the three lots is described anywhere on the ballpark's site as bus or motorcoach parking — because there isn't one. A 40-foot coach isn't built for a $5 surface lot sized for sedans, and there's no published coach zone to look for.
That's exactly why the curb drop matters more here than the lot: your bus unloads the group at the gate, then moves off to wait nearby, instead of trying to wedge into a lot that was never meant to hold it.
For a group of 20, 30, or 40 people, splitting across those three small lots also means splitting the group physically before the game even starts — some walking in from Lindsay Street, some from Westwood Avenue, some circling for street parking once the lots fill. One bus keeps everyone on the same curb at the same time.
What Size Bus Rental Fits Your Truist Point Group?
Group size is really what decides the vehicle for a Truist Point trip, since the ballpark itself only seats a few thousand and most groups renting a bus here are somewhere between a birthday party and a company outing, not a stadium-scale crowd.
| Vehicle | Typical seats | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Sprinter van rental | Up to ~14 | Small groups, suite holders, quick downtown trips |
| 18-passenger minibus | Up to 18 | Small office or birthday groups |
| 25-passenger minibus | Up to 25 | Mid-size company or club outings |
| 35-passenger minibus | Up to 35 | Larger group tickets, church groups |
| Party bus rental | 15–40 | Celebrations that start before first pitch |
| Charter bus rental | 40–56 | Large group outings, tournaments, conventions |
A High Point minibus rental is usually the right call for a group booking a shared section of seats for a Rockers game — small enough to load quickly at the Home Plate Gate curb, big enough that nobody drove separately. Larger outings, like a full department or a youth league booking a group ticket block, are where a charter bus rental makes more sense, since it holds everyone in one vehicle instead of two or three smaller ones. Browse the full bus and vehicle lineup to compare what's available for your date.
Truist Point Bus Rental Prices
There's no single sticker price for a Truist Point trip, because the quote is shaped by a few clear factors: vehicle size, how many hours the bus is booked for (including the wait during the game), your pickup location, and the date. A Tuesday night regular-season game prices differently than a Saturday during a Charleston Dirty Birds or Lexington Legends homestand, when demand around downtown High Point picks up.
To give you an idea, a group of 25 booking a minibus for a 3-hour round trip — pickup, the game, and the ride home — might land somewhere in the low hundreds per hour, split across the group. Once that's divided by headcount, it routinely runs less than what the group would spend on gas, $5 parking passes, and the coordination of getting everyone to the same lot on their own.

Getting to Truist Point: Routes and Drive Times Across the Triad
Truist Point sits right in downtown High Point, which means every route into it eventually funnels onto the same tight grid of Elm, Main, and Church streets near the ballpark. Approximate off-peak drive times to downtown High Point from around the Triad:
| From… | Typical drive time (off-peak) |
|---|---|
| Downtown Greensboro | Roughly 20–25 minutes |
| Downtown Winston-Salem | Roughly 25–30 minutes |
| Charlotte | Roughly 1 hour 30 minutes |
Those times stretch on a Rockers gameday, when downtown streets narrow around the ballpark block and the small parking lots fill within that first hour before first pitch. A charter bus rental takes that timing question off your plate — the group's pickup is built around your gate time, not a guess at when the lots will fill.
Piedmont Triad Airport to Truist Point
Groups flying in for a Rockers outing or a private event at the ballpark usually land at Piedmont Triad International Airport (PTI), about a 20-minute drive northeast of downtown High Point. Instead of splitting an arriving group across several rideshares from baggage claim, one bus gathers everyone at the terminal curb and runs straight to the hotel or the ballpark. See the High Point airport transportation page for the full rundown on airport pickups across the Triad.
Bag Policy and Gameday Rules at Truist Point
Every bag gets checked at the gate. Per the ballpark's own guide, all bags are subject to inspection prior to entering the ballpark, and clear bags are recommended to speed up that line, per the Truist Point ballpark guide. Outside food and beverages, lawn chairs, signs, glass containers, weapons, and drones are all turned away at the gate, and the restricted-items list can change during the season.
That's one more reason a bus works well for a Truist Point outing: coolers, blankets, or gear that won't clear the gate simply stays on the bus in the luggage bay instead of getting left curbside or hauled back to the car. Nobody has to make a second trip.
Leaving Truist Point After the Final Out
Because Truist Point only has three named gates for a single-block ballpark, the crowd releases through a much smaller footprint than a big-league stadium — which means the same narrow downtown streets that fill up before the game clear slowly right after it, especially on Gatewood Avenue and Elm Street near the Home Plate Gate. Anyone who drove is walking back to one of the three small lots at the same time as everyone else.
With a bus, the group agrees on a pickup window and a curb before the game ever starts, and the bus is staged nearby and ready when the group walks out — no hunting for where the car got parked, no waiting on a rideshare that has to fight the same narrow streets to reach you.
Rockers Games and the Truist Point Schedule
The High Point Rockers play in the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball, and Truist Point runs a full home slate that stretches into September. Per the team's Truist Point schedule page, most weeknight and Saturday games start at 6:35 p.m., with Sunday games starting in the afternoon. Upcoming 2026 homestands include the Gastonia Ghost Peppers (August 11–16), the Lexington Legends (August 25–30), and the Charleston Dirty Birds (September 8–13) — the last of which includes a rare 11:05 a.m. getaway game on September 9.
On game days, the box office opens at 10 a.m. on weekdays (1 p.m. Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays) and stays open through the seventh inning, per the ballpark guide above.
Single-game tickets range from $8 bleacher seats to $16 Home Plate seating. None of that changes the transportation math: whatever section your group is in, everyone still needs to get through the same three gates and the same three small lots.
Who Books a Truist Point Charter Bus Rental
The same door-to-door setup works no matter who's filling the seats. Groups that book a bus to Truist Point most often include:
- Company and office outings. A shared block of tickets and a single pickup from the office beats a dozen separate cars looking for street parking downtown. See High Point corporate transportation.
- Birthday and milestone groups. A game night that doubles as the celebration, with the party bus part of the plan before first pitch. See High Point birthday party transportation.
- Church and youth groups. Larger blocks of tickets move cleanly with one bus instead of a caravan of parent-driven cars converging on the same three lots. See High Point church transportation.
- Multi-stop Triad trips. Groups pairing a Rockers game with a hotel stay or another stop nearby can build the whole itinerary through the High Point group transportation services page.
Booking Your Truist Point Party Bus Rental
- Request a quote with your group size, pickup location, and game date.
- Confirm the vehicle and the drop point. For most Truist Point trips, that means the Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street curb near the Home Plate Gate.
- Set your pickup window. Agree on a time for the bus to be back at the curb after the final out, so the group isn't standing on Elm Street waiting for a ride.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bus Rental to Truist Point
Where does a charter bus or party bus drop off at Truist Point?
The best curb for a bus is at Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street, the ballpark's own accessible drop-off point near the Home Plate Gate, with ramps built into both entrances. Truist Point also has a Center Field Gate at Church Avenue and Elm Street and a Right Field Gate on Appling Way, but none of the three has a published bus-specific unloading zone, so confirming the drop point with your booking ahead of the game is worth doing.
Is there parking for buses at Truist Point?
Not specifically. The ballpark's parking page lists three lots — First Base VIP, Third Base Preferred, and Home Plate Preferred — all sized for cars at $5 per game, plus 24 first-come ADA spaces on Gatewood Avenue. None is built for a 40-foot coach, which is exactly why most groups have their bus drop passengers at the curb and stage nearby rather than try to park in one of the small lots.
How much does it cost to rent a bus to Truist Point?
Pricing depends on vehicle size, total hours booked, pickup location, and the date. You can compare quotes in under a minute online, or call 743-600-9940 for a free quote.
What time do gates open at Truist Point?
Gates open 45 minutes before first pitch. Most weeknight and Saturday games start at 6:35 p.m., with Sunday games starting in the afternoon.
What's the bag policy at Truist Point?
All bags are inspected at the gate, and clear bags move faster through the line. Outside food and drinks, lawn chairs, signs, glass containers, weapons, and drones are not allowed inside. Gear that won't clear the gate can simply stay on the bus.
What size bus fits our group?
For most Truist Point outings — a shared block of group tickets, a birthday party, or an office outing — an 18- to 35-passenger minibus fits comfortably. Larger groups of 40 or more are better served by a full charter bus, and celebrations that want music and lighting on the ride over often go with a party bus rental instead.
How far is Truist Point from the airport?
Piedmont Triad International Airport (PTI) is about a 20-minute drive from downtown High Point, making it an easy single pickup point for groups flying in for a Rockers game or a ballpark event.
Is there accessible parking and entry at Truist Point?
Yes. ADA parking runs along Gatewood Avenue on a first-come, first-served basis, and the accessible drop-off is at Gatewood Avenue and Pine Street, with ramps at both that entrance and the Gatewood Avenue entrance.
How far in advance should we book a bus for a Rockers game?
Booking as soon as your group ticket date is set gets you the best selection of vehicles, especially for weekend homestands. For most weeknight games, a couple of weeks of lead time is workable, but earlier is always better for a specific vehicle size.
