Hi there, Helen! Welcome back to planDisney! Thank you so much for taking the time to stop back by and asking another excellent Walt Disney World Resort vacation question!
MagicBands are the all-in-one wristbands that connect you to your plans while visiting Walt Disney World Resort! These stylish devices are water-proof and come in a variety of fun designs. Guests may use their MagicBands to do such things as unlocking the door to their
Disney Resort hotel, enter the theme parks and water parks, connect
Disney PhotoPass images to their account, and charge purchases to their Disney Resort hotel room. MagicBands allows you to pack lighter during your travels while also expressing your unique flair!
Fortunately, though, Guests do not need a MagicBand to get the full Disney experience! I consider them to be more like “icing on the cake”, personally. You will have no problems accessing your plans with your admission card as well. My family prefers to use MagicBands since we easily forget small items like admission cards from time to time whereas we can just wear our MagicBands throughout our trip! This way, we’re never caught off guard without our theme park admission.
Additionally, you can also take advantage of the all-new
Disney MagicMobile Service through your smart device! This convenient service allows Guests to access many of the MagicBand features in a contactless way. All you will need to do is create your Disney MagicMobile pass through the
My Disney Experience app and add it to your smart device’s digital wallet. From there, you will be free to access features by holding your device to any access point!
I hope this information assists you in planning a magical visit to Walt Disney World Resort! Please let us know if we can answer any other questions for you as well!
