MTM Seminar Detroit
We have been rolling out some new details about changes here at Miles to Memories since my return into the fold on Monday. Yesterday I talked about some new features of the MTM Diamond Lounge (and MTM Gold). A part of that was the upcoming MTM Seminar Detroit. This will be a fun filled weekend with miles & points enthusiasts, but also a great learning opportunity to use for years to come. We will be discussing leveraging online sportsbooks & casinos for profit, miles and points. Update 5/15/26: The tickets are now live (link below)
When & Where?
The MTM seminar Detroit will obviously take place in Detroit. It will take place on October 23rd and 24th, 2026. I am sure there will be a group hanging around some on Sunday October 25th, but there will be no planned activities for that day.
The fun will kick off around 6PM on Friday the 23rd. We will have a full day of seminars, food and fun on Saturday as well.
What Is Included?
The meet up will kick off Friday evening with an icebreaker event. We have rented some pedal pubs / pedal bikes to do a tour of Detroit and hit some local bars / restaurants along the way. Have no fear, you don’t need to actually pedal. Here is a video that shows some of the experience.
We will have each of the pedal pubs stocked with water, soda / pop, beer and hard seltzers. You are also free to bring whatever you want to drink along with you, just as long as it is not in glass.
The next day we will head over to HopCat in Detroit. We have rented out the entire top floor for presentations. This will include several hours of presentations on maximizing sportsbooks and online casinos. We will also walk you through some bonus opportunities that hopefully offset most / all of the cost of the event. We will be having a catered lunch at HopCat and everyone will get a couple of drink tickets for the presentations as well.
We will have an informal meet up Saturday evening as well and then will likely explore the city in groups late into the night! Some will likely just head over to one of the casinos too.
I should mention at this point – DO NOT –Â I repeat DO NOT sign up for any of these online casino / sportsbook accounts in anticipation of the event. That will negate opportunities for you. We will have table leads that will walk you through the bonuses when that time comes after the presentations. You will use their referral when signing up as a way to thank them for your help. If you bring along a guest or two with you then you will be able to refer any people you as your plus one etc.
Cost & Ticket Release Dates
As promised, our Patreon members had first dibs at these tickets at a discounted rate. We do have a limited quantity of tickets still available for sale. These will be on a first come, first serve basis.

A ticket restocking option will be available through August 1. If you can no longer attend, the fee will be $35 per ticket. After August 1, there will be no refunds or transfers for any reason.
Hotel Options
Book whatever hotel option fits your points availability next. We will be kind of scattered around downtown. You will also want to lock in your hotel ASAP as that weekend was just announced as the Lions vs Packers game.

MTM Seminar Detroit
In the past this was one of our group’s favorite / most requested meet up events. We are taking it to another level this time around though. More fun, more people and more value! I will share additional details as they come available. If you these type of events interest you then I would encourage you to consider joining the Diamond Group. We do a couple of MTM Diamond only meet ups every year too. Hope to see you all in Detroit!
For those of us who will not be able to travel to Detroit at that time, is there a chance the event will be recorded so we could purchase access to watch/listen to it after the event? Thanks.
Unfortunately that is not in the plans.
Is there a streaming option for people who can’t physically make it to the event? I’d gladly pay for the live online version!
Unfortunately that is not in the plans.
will TBB be there?
If there are tickets left for general public. When and where can they be purchased?
We will be releasing that information in a few weeks. Apologies that we are a little behind schedule on getting that out.
There are significant tax implications with this and the Big Beautiful Bill. Of all the ways to make money with credit cards, I’m steering clear of this one.
Something that needs to be considered / discussed if nothing changes in the laws by then for sure.
