New SPG Moments concerts at the O2 released

Starwood Preferred Guest, the Westin / W / Sheraton / Le Meridien / St Regis etc group, has listed a new batch of redemptions for the SPG Suite at the O2 Arena in Greenwich.

You can find them on the SPG Moments website.

You can book yourself in to see:

• Strictly Come Dancing Live
• The X Factor Live Tour
• Wet Wet Wet
• Country to Country
• Mariah Carey
• Ellie Goulding
• a-ha
• Janet Jackson
• 5 Seconds of Summer
• Muse
• ELO
• Harlem Globetrotters (not singing ….)

There were, for a split second, some Adele tickets available as well but they were snapped up so quickly I never even saw them.  The majority of shows are 15,000 SPG points.

All tickets come as pairs with free food and drink included.  You can read a review of my visit to the SPG Suite at the O2 here.

PS.  If anyone is going to the SPG event in London tonight, do say Hi – I will be there.
