    Hello I want to buy magicband+ . I’m staying at animal kingdom lodge on 30th Oct for 5N. Why does the address box want a US address? I am within 10days of the stay. Will it be sent to the AKL?

    Hey there, Colin! Welcome back to planDisney! 

    Your Walt Disney World adventure is right around the corner, so let’s jump and get you the info you need about the MagicBand+

    I’m sorry to report that MagicBand+ cannot be shipped internationally, including to Canada, and they can no longer be pre-ordered and picked up at Walt Disney World Resort hotels upon arrival. The only option for international guests is to purchase a MagicBand+ when they arrive at Walt Disney World.

    Many resort hotel shops have a small selection of MagicBand+, including Zawadi Marketplace at Animal Kingdom Lodge. Many of the larger merchandise locations in the theme parks, such as The Emporium at the Magic Kingdom or Creations Shop at EPCOT, carry a wider selection of bands if you’re looking for a particular design. You can also find a large selection of MagicBand+ at World of Disney at Disney Springs. 

    This may not be the news you wanted, Colin, but the good news is that there are other options if you decide not to purchase a MagicBand+. You can ask a helpful Cast Member at check-in for a Key to the World card, which can be used similarly to a MagicBand, and many of the same functions are also available through the MagicMobile service on the My Disney Experience mobile app. 

    I hope this information helps and that you enjoy the switch from spooky season to wintertime festivities during your upcoming visit. Don’t hesitate to come back to planDisney if you have any additional questions. We’re always happy to help! 

    Magical travels!
