As a lifelong travel partner, Marriott Bonvoy is proud to create experiences that bring fans closer to the energy of Hong Kong’s most iconic events and to one another, turning meaningful moments into lasting memories for travellers at every step of their journeys.”
Throughout the tournament, Marriott Bonvoy will elevate the fan experience with member-exclusive hospitality offerings and Marriott Bonvoy Moments™, providing members the opportunity to redeem their points for exclusive and VIP access to the tournament. Members can redeem points for full-day access to the Marriott Bonvoy Suite in Kai Tak Stadium, where curated food and beverage offerings will be served during the matches. Members can also look forward to surprise visits from legendary rugby players as arranged by Hong Kong China Rugby, bringing them closer to the sport they love.
