Marriott Bonvoy has launched a number of new ‘Marriott Moments’You can find them here.

It has added a new batch of O2 concert tickets to its website.  These are for the renamed Marriott Bonvoy Suite, which comes with full catering and free drinks all night.

Here is a review of a Muse concert from the suite back in the days when it was called the SPG Suite.  It is worth reading the review because there are pros and cons of being in the suite as opposed to down on the arena floor.

The concerts currently available are:

  • Childish Gambino, 25th March, 20,000 points (late booking reduction!)
  • Panic! At The Disco, 29th March, 20,000 points (late booking reduction!)
  • Drake, 2nd April, 45,000 points
  • Take That, 3rd/4th/5th/10th May, 45,000 points
  • Olly Murs, 18th May, 45,000 points
  • Rita Ora, 24th May, 60,000 points
  • The Vamps, 25th May, 45,000 points
  • An Evening with Mark Knopfler And Band, 28th May, 45,000 points
  • An Evening with Michael Buble, 31st May/1st June, 60,000 points
  • Hugh Jackman: The Man. The Music. The Show, 2nd/6th/7th June, 45,000 points
  • Badu x Aiko, 9th June, 60,000 points
  • Lenny Kravitz, 11th June, 60,000 points
  • Westlife, 14th/15th June, 45,000 points
  • Backstreet Boys, 17th/18th June, 60,000 points
  • Quincy Jones, 23rd June, 60,000 points
  • Cirque du Soleil: Toruk, 26th/27th/28th/29th/30th June, 15,000 points (not in the suite)
  • Mrs. Brown’s Boys D’Musical, 6th July, 15,000 points
  • Kiss, 11th July, 60,000 points
  • Ariana Grande, 17th/20th August, 60,000 points

The first three have been available for a while but the remainder are new. If I was in London I would definitely try to get tickets to see Hugh Jackman: The Man. The Music. The Show, and possibly Panic! At The Disco as it’s been 12 years since I’ve last seen them, at a way smaller venue.

Other Marriott Moments available are:

  • BBL Playoff Finals, 19th May, 45,000 points
  • Unibets Premier League Darts, 23rd May, 45,000 points

All pricing is for two tickets with full hospitality in the suite, except where noted.

There are also various auction packages still available for the Manchester United v West Ham match on 12th April.  These include full hospitality.

You can buy or bid for the events here.

    Read the title and became greatly excited that E17 would be one of the bands!

    Colour me disappointed to read the main body and not see them listed, shocker of a start to Tuesday….

  • Stu N says:

    OTish – will I get Bonvoy points for F&B spend at a Ritz Carlton? On a redemption if that matters.

  • Shoestring says:

    O/T it’s BIGTHANKS day on Amazon – £5 off £25 – items must be sold by Amazon. Not giftcards (so it says 🙂 )

    1.Add any Qualifying Items with a combined value of £25 or more (the “Minimum Purchase”) to your Shopping Basket via the “Add to Basket” button. You cannot use the 1-Click ordering method when redeeming a promotional code.
    2. When you’re done shopping, click the “Proceed to Checkout” button
    3. At checkout, enter the promotional code (BIGTHANKS) in the “Gift Cards and Promotional Codes” box. The Offer will then be applied to your order, reducing the cost of your total order value by £5.

      This offer works if you include the Amazon Fire Stick which is currently £24.95 for Prime members.

      You need to get out more, writing essays at 6.45

    Gutted I don’t have enough points to redeem for any of those concerts at the O2. Thankfully I already have tickets for Take That and Backstreet Boys but would love to have been able to do a second show.

  • James1 says:

    Disappointed.
    Rita Ora is on the list
    An then an evening with Mark Knopfler or Michael Bible
    But what I would like is an evening with Rita Ora 😉

  • Kevin says:

    According to the site, Mrs Brown does include seats in the suite although Cirque does not.

    Got tickets for Childish Gambino yesterday. Bargain.

  • JoshO says:

    Hi Rob – as always, thanks for all the articles! Quick question – do these events just get ‘loaded’ at random, or are there set dates when the next batch of things goes live?

    Just wondered if you almost have to check these things almost every day, or just on a certain day of the month?

    Many thanks!

  • 1967stuart says:

    Thanks Rob for posting that

    I now have both a very happy wife (who is now going to see Ollie Murs) and an even happier Daughter (who is going to see Hugh Jackman)

    Better still means she is happier again to let me to churn various credit cards………. as I was getting moaned at again for how many credit cards we have open at any single time !
