Here’s our guide to unlocking the ultimate Scene+ points earning weekend in Vancouver
Let’s face it, weekends tend to be jam-packed with outings and activities.
With endless options for things to see and do, we figured we should be making the most of our weekends — which often involve some spending. Thankfully the Scotiabank®* American Express® Card helps us narrow down our options with ways to earn perks while we spend. How ideal?
When a credit card provider allows us to earn up to 10,000 bonus Scene+™ points within the first year (which equals up to $100 towards travel), we sit up and take notice.
That’s exactly what’s on offer (until October 31, 2022) with the Scotiabank®* American Express® Card no-fee credit card which also allows users to earn two Scene+™ points for every $1 spent on eligible grocery, dining, entertainment, gas, daily transit, and select streaming services purchased. Card members will also earn one Scene+™ point on other everyday purchases.
Given weekends are the perfect time to gather as many points as you can, we’ve curated the ultimate weekend guide in Vancouver to ensure you’re doing the activities that will earn you extra.

Friday happy hours are the best. What’s better than the first cold sip of a delicious craft beer in one of Vancouver’s many breweries? There are great options in either of Vancouver’s Brewers Rows, either in Port Moody (where you’ll find Twin Sails and Moody Ales) or Lower Lonsdale (boasting Streetcar Brewing). Once it’s time to find somewhere for delicious food, we recommend Tacofino for those perfect West Coast dining feels. Pro tip: with your Scotiabank®* American Express® Card, you’ll earn two Scene+™ points for every $1 spent.
Saturdays are for friends, family, and fun. With that in mind, get yourself to The Rec Room in Burnaby’s Amazing Brentwood, where you can choose from virtual reality, bowling, axe throwing, ping pong, and pool tables. There are also over 90 arcade games such as Pac-Man, Angry Birds, and Mario Kart to keep you entertained all day. Plus, you’ll be earning two Scene+™ points for every $1 you spend on food, beverages, gaming, and entertainment. And don’t forget to use your Scene+™ membership card too — you will earn one point for every $1 spent at The Rec Room. By using both your Scotiabank®* American Express® Card and Scene+™ membership, you can easily earn points two ways at once.
Sunday is the perfect day for a hike. Try Whyte Lake or Tunnel Bluffs for moderate hikes with rewarding views. And if you don’t own a car, Scotiabank®* American Express® Card members can rent through Scene+™ Travel, Powered by Expedia, to earn three points for every $1 spent.
There you have it, a weekend guide that maximizes Scotiabank®* American Express® Card members’ Scene+™ points earning power — with no annual fee.
