Hi Kim, welcome to planDisney!
I'm just as excited as you are that
MagicBand+ is finally coming to the
Disneyland Resort! It officially launches on October 26, 2022, just a few days away!
You also bring up a great question. I think you're referring to the
Disney MagicMobile Service available at the
Walt Disney World Resort, which is a convenient and contactless way to access MagicBand features, such as theme park entry, through eligible iPhones, Apple Watches, or Google Pay enabled Android phones. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard any news yet if this is coming to the Disneyland Resort. I sure hope it is though! I would love to use my Apple Watch to access these features. I will definitely be keeping up to date with the
Disney Parks Blog for the latest and greatest news. Hopefully, we hear something in the near future!
But in the meantime, let's enjoy MagicBand+! You'll be able to use your MagicBand+ to enter the parks, check in at
Lightning Lane entrances, and enjoy enhanced experiences, such as having your MagicBand+ glow with different colors and pulses with haptic vibrations during various nighttime spectaculars, and even acting as your guide as you seek virtual bounties hidden across Black Spire Outpost during
Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters! For more information on MagicBand+ at the Disneyland Resort,
read all about it here!
Hope you have an amazing trip in December 2022!
See ya real soon!
