Longmont New Year’s Eve Party Bus: A Brewery Night for Adults 21+ (2026)

Longmont has a big craft beer scene, and New Year’s Eve is the perfect night to enjoy it with a crowd. A Longmont New Year’s Eve party bus lets your group of friends hop between taprooms, ring in the year together and get home safely. This trip is for adults 21 and older only.

Here is how to plan it.

Building Your Longmont New Year’s Eve Party Bus Route

Pick Two or Three Breweries

Visit Longmont’s brewery guide lists many local spots. Well-known names include Left Hand Brewing Company, Oskar Blues Brewery, Pumphouse Brewery and Longs Peak Pub and Taphouse. Smaller favorites include 300 Suns Brewing, Collision Brewing Company, Wibby Brewing, Bootstrap Brewing and The Post Brewing Co. St. Vrain Cidery is an option for cider fans.

Holiday hours change. Some taprooms close early on New Year’s Eve, and some host their own parties. Call each spot ahead and confirm. If a place cannot take a large group, we can adjust the order.

Plan Food

Fit a real dinner into the night. Some breweries have kitchens or food trucks. Others welcome outside food. A planned meal stop keeps everyone feeling good until midnight.

Choose a Countdown Spot

Many groups end the night at a final taproom, a ticketed party or a friend’s house. Nearby towns host events too. For example, in 2025 Loveland Aleworks held a free New Year’s Eve disco party with a beer toast at midnight. Check 2026 listings as December gets closer.

Tips for a Great Night

• Book early. New Year’s Eve books up first, and large vehicles go fast.
• Everyone 21 and over. Bring a valid ID. Brewery stops and drinking are for adults only, under Colorado law.
• Call breweries ahead. Confirm holiday hours and whether they can host a group.
• Eat and hydrate. Pace yourselves. Water between beers helps a lot.
• Dress for the cold. Late December nights are chilly, and you will walk between the bus and the door.
• Plan drop-offs. Send addresses before the night so the ride home is quick.
• Watch the weather. Our chauffeurs drive in snow all winter and will adjust timing if needed.

Brewery Etiquette for a Big Group

A little planning makes your group welcome everywhere you go.

• Give a heads-up. Let each taproom know your group size and arrival time. Small spots may need to save room.
• Keep the timing. Agree on how long you will stay at each stop. Your chauffeur will be ready at the door when it is time to go.
• Tip your bartenders. Holiday nights are busy for brewery staff too.
• Buy local. Many Longmont breweries sell cans and crowlers to go. It is an easy souvenir from the night.
• Look out for each other. Do a quick headcount before the bus leaves every stop.

Not a beer group? The same plan works for cider, cocktails or a mix of dinner and live music. Just tell us the stops.

Want a lower-key night? Some groups pick one brewery for a long dinner, then ride to a friend’s house for the countdown. It is still easy, still safe and still a night to remember. Our chauffeur takes everyone home at the end, so no one has to think about the drive.
