✨ Unforgettable Events and Tours in Colorado Springs

🚍 The Local Motive's Curated Adventures: More Than Just a Ride

The story of The Local Motive Party Bus begins with a love story—a love for Colorado Springs, for community, and between Johnny and Amanda Joy. Johnny, a fourth-generation native, has deep roots in the Springs. Inspired by personal challenges and experiences, he envisioned bringing people together.

After the original Local Motive closed—where they had once celebrated Amanda's unforgettable birthday—the Joys couldn't bear to let those memories end. They revived it in 2024, purchasing the retired bus to create new celebrations for others.

Imagine this: you and your friends, both old and new, sharing laughter while exploring the city's hidden treasures. Discover a charming local art gallery, a creative space brimming with local talent, or sample decadent creations at a beloved artisanal chocolatier. From brewery tours to seasonal adventures, each outing on their two custom buses (up to 46 passengers) is crafted for lasting memories and new connections.

Upcoming events include a Galentine's Crawl 💕, a Valentine's Day 🥂 "THE Ultimate Date Night," and the popular Wine Ride 🍷. A perfect way to unwind and reconnect!

As owners, Johnny builds relationships with local businesses, ensuring authentic experiences. Amanda's meticulous planning guarantees a seamless adventure. Sit back, relax, and let them take care of everything. Meanwhile, their professional team provides top-notch service in a comfortable, enjoyable environment.

The Joys also warm hearts through community initiatives, including holiday toy drives. They've created a space for everyone to explore Colorado Springs in style.
