Get your friendship bracelets ready, because Marriott Bonvoy wants to send you to not one, not two, but three separate Taylor Swift concerts around the world.
On Tuesday, the company announced its new member sweepstakes through Marriott Bonvoy Moments, which includes the chance to see Taylor in concert in the U.S., Canada, or a destination across Europe. And yes, it includes a plus-one ticket, too.
“Fueled by a deep desire to experience her shows live, Taylor Swift fans have traveled near and far to be a part of this once-in-a-lifetime experience, and now, Marriott Bonvoy is helping fans make their passion a reality,” Peggy Roe, the executive vice president and chief customer Officer at Marriott International, shared in a statement provided to Travel + Leisure.
Fans can win one of three prizes: the «Vancouver Ultimate Concert Experience,» the «Where Can We Take You» concert package, and «An Unforgettable Experience.»
The «Vancouver Ultimate Concert Experience» includes a 4-day, 3-night trip to the Canadian city, airfare, hotel accommodations, and two tickets to Swift’s concert tickets for one of her shows from Dec. 6 through 8. The closing date for this sweepstakes is Oct. 9.
The «Where Can We Take You» package includes two tickets to see Swift in a select city across Europe, including her stops in Stockholm, Madrid, Zurich, Milan, Hamburg, and Vienna, or her concerts across North America in Miami, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Toronto, and Vancouver. Entry deadline for this package will be on a rolling basis, all depending on the specific concert date.
And finally, the «Unforgettable Experience» includes what Marriott calls a “once-in-a-lifetime” trip to see Swift at three different tour stops at select shows across Europe, the U.S., and Canada. The winning trip includes four days and three nights, air travel, hotel accommodations, and those coveted tickets. The closing date for this sweepstakes is June 1.

However, those who don't want to take their chances on winning the tickets can redeem reward points for another epic package for members which includes two concert tickets, a two-night hotel stay at a Marriott Bonvoy portfolio property, dinner at one of Marriott Bonvoy’s premiere restaurants, transportation to and from the venue, and a spa treatment to help you unwind from all the excitement.
The package goes live on March 13 (an extremely appropriate date, Marriott) on the Marriott Bonvoy moments site and will be redeemable for 500,000 points.
Marriott will also host pop-up events at various properties, including friendship bracelet-making stations, so you're fully prepared to swap in the stadium.

For skiers and snowboarders who dream of hitting a smorgasbord of mountains come wintertime, the Ikon Pass is like a passport to a kingdom of potential adventures.

They will be valid for the remainder of the current winter season which, thanks to recent storms, will probably see lifts spinning beyond Memorial Day at some resorts (we’re looking at you, Mammoth).

Witnessing the natural phenomenon of the aurora borealis belongs on every traveler’s bucket list. But determining where to see the northern lights is a complex matter—actually encountering the majestic and alien-ish green and purple glow of the night sky is not only about location, but also timing (December to March is ideal in many instances; August through April in other parts), positioning (typically from latitudes 65 to 72 degrees North), and plain ol’ luck (a clear, dark, and cloud-free sky).

Crossbody bags, totes, fanny packs—certain purses lend themselves especially well to travel. But on some trips, you might find yourself leaning a little less practical and a little more on-trend. Enter: the bucket bag, which in recent months has been spotted on the arms of celebrities like Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, and Katie Holmes. Sure, it won't lie flat across your body or hold quite as much as a backpack, but it will tie your look together when meandering in and out of shops in Paris or spending an afternoon at a cafe.
