How to use your Hilton Honors points to meet Travis Kelce — or at least go to his music festival
Points and miles can get you more than just a business-class seat or an upgraded room at a swanky resort — they can also help you score once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. You can use them to live out your “Fast & Furious” fantasies or snag seats at concerts with hard-to-get tickets. We saw this with Marriott Bonvoy’s promotion for Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour.”
Now, Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, is getting in on the action with Hilton.
Hilton Honors Experiences — a program where members can bid on or redeem points for unique experiences ranging from special dinners to VIP tickets to sporting events or concerts — is offering tickets to Travis Kelce’s Kelce Jam. The festival takes place May 18 in Kansas City. (In case you somehow missed it, he plays for the Kansas City Chiefs and helped bring the Vince Lombardi Trophy home to the city this year.)
But that’s not all: You can also bid on the chance to meet Kelce in person — and even challenge him in a football toss.
At Kelce Jam, guests will enjoy live performances by Lil Wayne, Diplo, 2 Chainz, Irie and E-V at the Azura Amphitheater. Plus, they can enjoy tons of Kansas City’s best barbecue. To those expecting a Swift sighting at the event, though, know that she’ll be in Sweden performing the European leg of “The Eras Tour.”
For Hilton Honors members with points to burn, the following packages are now open for bidding:
