Can I use my Aeroplan points to go to EDC Las Vegas or Ultra Miami?

Yes, Aeroplan award tickets are available to Las Vegas, Miami and many other festival destinations with Air Canada and its Star Alliance partners. Availability is best if you book as soon as the calendar opens (about 350 days before the festival date).

Which hotels allow you to use points near major festivals?

Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors and IHG Rewards have hotels in the immediate vicinity of major sites such as EDC, Ultra Miami and Tomorrowland Belgium. Free nights via points or “weekend certificates” are highly sought-after: make sure you're one step ahead!

Can you pay for your festival ticket with credit card points?

Not directly via airline/hotel programs, but certain cards (American Express Membership Rewards, Scotia Rewards...) allow you to purchase Ticketmaster/Eventbrite gift cards with your points, and then purchase your festival ticket on these partner platforms. Finally, choose the right credit card to accumulate points when you spend.

Is it possible to cancel a hotel reservation made with points during a festival at no charge?

Yes, most international hotel programs offer this flexibility up to one week before the scheduled arrival date. Always check rate conditions before making a final reservation.
