Get yourself a cheap Harry Styles

SPG Moments, the Starwood Preferred Guest auction site, has failed to sell all of its Harry Styles tickets for Wednesday and Thursday at The O2 in London.

The remaining pairs were available last night for just 5,000 SPG points per pair (or 15,000 Marriott points if you move them to SPG).

This is an exceptional deal – you can eat and drink your way through more than the value of the points during your evening in the SPG private suite in The O2, even if Mr Styles is not your thing!

Ticket sales will automatically end at noon, but if you want any of the remaining pairs you should jump in as soon as you’ve finished reading this.  You can redeem here for Wednesday (four pairs of tickets left at midnight last night) and here for Thursday (three pairs of tickets left at midnight last night).

Interestingly, all of the Harry Styles tickets offered via the Marriott Moments site sold out at 75,000 Marriott Rewards points per pair.  If you go, don’t tell anyone how many points you used or it could offend ….

This is Anika’s review of seeing a concert from the SPG Suite.
