IHG Hotels & Resorts has become the official partner of Atlanta United, D.C. United, Los Angeles Football Club and New York City Football Club, providing members of IHG One Rewards new ways to redeem their rewards points — with soccer tickets, signed merchandise, stadium tours and more. 

IHG One Rewards members can enjoy redeeming their earned points to redeem or bid to win packages such as VIP tickets, pre-match sideline access, post-match penalty kick practice, appearances and signed merchandise, behind-the-scenes stadium tours and more. 

“Last year was an incredibly exciting year for the League, and we’re continuing to see soccer become increasingly more popular in the U.S.,” said Brian McGuinness, Senior Vice President, Global Guest Experience, IHG Hotels & Resorts. “We’re thrilled to add new clubs to our growing list of experience partnerships and offer more ways for our IHG One Rewards members to connect to their passions as they travel.”

Additionally, IHG continues supporting Major League Soccer as its Official Hotel and Hotel Loyalty Program Partner for the third year. 

“During this unparalleled period of growth and opportunity for Major League Soccer, our league is incredibly proud to continue our work with IHG Hotels & Resorts and add our teams Atlanta United, D.C. United, LAFC and NYCFC to IHG’s roster of official partners,” said Jennifer Cramer, Executive Vice President, Partnership Marketing, Major League Soccer.

“IHG One Rewards Access delivers one-of-a-kind experiences, and MLS and our teams are excited to collaborate with IHG on providing opportunities for members that bring them even closer to our game and moments they will never forget," Cramer continued.
