Top name SPG and Marriott Moments concert tickets for The O2 added for redemption

Starwood Preferred Guest and Marriott Rewards have released a new batch of tickets for The O2 arena concerts in London.

All of these are for the SPG Suite, and include all you can drink and a very decent hot buffet.  You can read my review of my visit to Muse here and Rob’s review of Sting and Paul Simon here.  It is worth reading the reviews because there are pros and cons of being in the suite as opposed to down on the arena floor.

The concerts currently available are:

• Barry Manilow, 6th September (45,000 points for two tickets)
• 50 Cent, 20th September (45,000 points for two tickets)
