Our vintage London double-decker buses are available for brand activations, experiential marketing campaigns, parades, filming, promotional events, and large-scale public appearances across the United States.
Whether you need a fully wrapped bus for a multi-day campaign, a static display piece for a city activation, or a moving promotional vehicle that naturally draws attention, we work directly with agencies and production teams to make the process straightforward from start to finish.
We can assist with measurements for wrap teams, provide buses as a clean slate for full branding, and accommodate a wide range of equipment-hire uses through our insurance coverage.
Some campaigns need more than a banner and a folding table.
A vintage London Routemaster has a way of stopping people mid-scroll and mid-sentence. Whether it’s parked outside a stadium, wrapped in the middle of Times Square, rolling through a Pride parade, or positioned for a product launch, the bus naturally becomes part of the conversation around the event itself.
We’re happy to work with agencies, production companies, and brands looking for something visually distinctive that can function as both transport and a large-scale promotional platform. The buses are available for multi-day hires, full wraps, static displays, filming, touring campaigns, and live public activations across the United States.
As the buses also operate a yearly public tour schedule, we always recommend reaching out as early as possible when planning larger campaigns or multi-day activations so scheduling and logistics can be coordinated smoothly.
Our Routemaster buses operate at a maximum road speed of approximately 42mph, which is an important consideration when planning longer-distance activations and event schedules.
For campaigns located more than roughly an hour from our Maryland base, the bus will often be transported by tow or trailer rather than driven directly to site. This helps protect the vehicle, maintain scheduling reliability, and ensure the bus arrives in presentation-ready condition for the activation itself.
We believe in being fully transparent during the planning process, and our contracts clearly outline transport methods, travel considerations, scheduling windows, towing requirements where applicable, and associated operational costs so agencies and production teams can plan confidently without surprises later in the process.
The buses can be fully wrapped and transformed for campaigns, launches, touring promotions, sporting events, and large-scale public activations. Their size, shape, and unmistakable London profile make them particularly effective for high-visibility branding in busy urban environments and live event settings.
To help streamline the production process, we can provide measurements for both the interior and exterior of the buses for wrap teams, fabricators, and production companies. This allows agencies to plan artwork, installation, staging, and branding layouts in advance before arriving on site.

Our buses have already been used as part of large-scale public activations, including a campaign appearance in Herald Square, New York City, alongside a Paris Hilton DJ appearance connected to the Karl Lagerfeld brand. The bus operated as both a visual centrepiece and branded promotional platform in one of the busiest public spaces in the United States.
The project involved a full exterior wrap, coordinated city deployment, and multi-day activation logistics alongside production and marketing teams operating in a live Manhattan environment.
All activations include a professional driver/operator, who also acts as the primary bus escort throughout the project. We understand these campaigns often involve multiple moving parts, including transport coordination, wrap installation, positioning schedules, staging windows, and live event timing.
Most activations require several days to complete once travel, preparation, installation, operational time, and breakdown are factored in, and we plan accordingly alongside agencies and production teams during scheduling.
The buses also feature an open-top upper deck, creating strong visibility for branding, filming, photography, public engagement, and live event presence.
