European rugby tickets available from 11 (not a typo!) IHG One Rewards points per pair

IHG One Rewards has cut the price of its tickets for upcoming EPCR Challenge Cup and Heineken Champions Cup rugby games.

These can be found on the IHG Access platform. The UK games are in Belfast, Newcastle, Glasgow and Leicester.

They are now priced at 10,000 IHG One Rewards points or, erm, 11 IHG One Rewards points for two tickets.

This is what is available at the time of publication (11.15am). The price is 10,000 points for two tickets unless stated.

EDIT: I updated availability as at 9.30pm on Tuesday. HfP readers had already been active!

EPCR Challenge Cup:

• Racing 92 vs. Leinster Rugby at Stade Océane, Le Havre – Saturday 10th December (11 points!)

• ASM Clermont Auvergne vs. DHL Stormers at Stade Marcel-Michelin, Clermont – Saturday 10th December (11 points!)

• Glasgow Warriors vs. USAP at Scotstoun Stadium, Glasgow – Friday 16th December

• Newcastle Falcons vs. Cardiff Rugby at Kingston Park, Newcastle – Saturday 17th December

Heineken Champions Cup:

• Munster Rugby vs. Stade Toulousain at Thomond Park, Limerick – Sunday 11th December (11 points!)

• Leicester Tigers vs. ASM Clermont Auvergne at Mattioli Woods Welford Road, Leicester – Saturday 17th December

• Lyon vs. Saracens at Matmut Stadium de Gerland, Lyon – Saturday 17th December

• Ulster Rugby vs. Stade Rochelais at Kingspan Stadium, Belfast – Saturday 17th December

• Stade Toulousain vs. Sale Sharks at Stade Ernest Wallon, Toulouse – Sunday 18th December

Remember that these are not auctions, they are ‘buy it now’ deals. There is no hospitality element – you are simply using 10,000 or 11 IHG One Rewards points for two tickets.

I would value 10,000 IHG One Rewards points at £40. This means that I value 11 points at 5p! These are all ‘Category 1’ tickets.

PS. Tickets for Round 3 of both tournaments will soon be available for redemption at 15,000 IHG One Rewards points per pair.
