Hilton Honors has put four ‘meet and greet’ packages with Michael Bublé up for grabs on its Hilton Honors Experiences platform.
What’s worth noting here is that three of the four events are in places which do not typically see decent ‘event ticket’ redemptions.
The dates are:
- 22nd April in Manchester
- 28th April in Glasgow
- 1st May in Newcastle
- 11th May in Birmingham
For each concert there is just one ‘meet and greet’ package being auctioned. You are bidding on, to quote:
- Access to a pre-show meet & greet with Michael Bublé backstage
- Tickets to the show in the top standard price point available
The minimum bid is 75,000 Hilton Honors points which we’d value at £250. There are no bids so far for Glasgow, Newcastle or Birmingham whilst Manchester is at 82,500 points.
The Hilton Honors Experiences site is here. Our full review of Hilton Honors is here if you want to start earning points towards future events.

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (April 2025)
There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards. Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.
There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.
You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.
We reviewed the Hilton Honors Plus Debit Card here and the Hilton Honors Debit Card here.
You can apply for either card here.
SPECIAL OFFER: Until 30th April 2025, the annual fee on the basic Hilton Honors debit card is halved from £60 to £30. The sign-up bonus is also easier to earn – you need to spend £1,000 either in the UK or abroad within three months. The usual bonus rule requires you to spend the full £1,000 outside the UK.
