Newberry has grown fast on the west side of Gainesville, but it still throws the oldest continually running watermelon festival in the country every spring. LYTT Party Bus meets that mix of new subdivisions and old small-town pride with a fully-loaded bus: ice-cold A/C, a custom bar on ice, club lighting and your music the whole ride, plus a professional driver who knows Newberry, Jonesville and the Gainesville roads around them.
The Newberry Watermelon Festival dates back to 1946 and now runs more than 80 years strong, still drawing crowds downtown every spring for the auction, the pageant and the parade. Dudley Farm Historic State Park preserves Newberry's history as a mining and agricultural town, while the Town of Tioga in Jonesville has become the newer social center, its Town Center packing restaurants, shops and a concert series into a few walkable blocks. Between the historic downtown, the fast-growing neighborhoods and a short drive into Gainesville for game days or a bigger night out, Newberry keeps us busy on both ends of the calendar.
Skip the festival parking hassle downtown. We drop your group close and grab everyone when the night winds down.
Walk the Town Center's restaurants and shops as a group, then ride together to wherever the night goes next.
Shuttle a Newberry wedding party locally, or run the group into Gainesville for a Gator gameday, all on one bus.
The two things people complain about on other buses? We fixed both.

Crisp, loud sound that doesn't cut out. Connect by Bluetooth and run your playlist all ride.
