Every O2 show you can book with Virgin Points in the Virgin Red Room, in price order - July 2026
There's been a bit of a Virgin Red Room focus for us right now, but this will be the last for a while, I promise!

Virgin Red Room at the O2 review: what 40,000 Virgin Points gets you
Most people collecting Virgin Points are saving them for a flight, and this is normally what we'd be doing, but in all honesty, I was bored one day and wanted to book us something to look forward to. In that vein, did you know that Virgin Red has a private suite inside the O2 arena in London called the Virgin Red Room, and you can book it for almost any show there using points rather than money? You book the whole thing through Virgin Red directly in about the time it takes t

30% bonus Virgin Points from your Tesco Clubcard vouchers, but you'll need to switch off auto-exchange
Virgin Red has launched a 30% bonus on Tesco Clubcard voucher exchanges, running from today until 30 June 2026. The bonus stacks on top of the standard 1 Clubcard point = 2 Virgin Points, meaning that 1,000 Clubcard points will come out as 2,600 Virgin Points instead of 2,000. But there's obviously a catch. Manual exchange only, and you've probably set them to auto-convert If you took advantage of the 5,000 Virgin Point sign-up bonus Virgin and Tesco ran a few times in the la

Virgin Points for Percy Pigs? M&S and Virgin Red's New Partnership Explained
Yes, you read that right. We're writing about Marks & Spencer's loyalty programme. Bear with us. M&S has just relaunched Sparks, and ordinarily that would not be something we'd cover on a site about miles and points. But the revamp comes with a new partnership between Sparks and Virgin Red, and that bit is very much our territory. What's changed with Sparks? The original version of Sparks gave you points for shopping, but you couldn't spend them. Instead, you'd hit thresholds

Earn Double Virgin Points on Train Tickets, and 2,000 Bonus Virgin Points When You Buy a Railcard
Virgin Trains Ticketing is running two offers until 19th April that are worth knowing about if you collect Virgin Points and travel by train. But before we get into it I need to clear something up. Virgin Trains Ticketing works with any operator across the UK. It's a common misconception that the booking system is only for Virgin Trains (even though Virgin Trains hasn't been a thing since 2019), but I use it where I live for South West Trains all the time. If you haven't used
