Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Brandi!
Counting down to a Walt Disney World Resort vacation is so exciting! Once our family trip is booked, it is so fun to dream about all of the fun we will have on our trip. You didn't specify whether you will be staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel and receiving complimentary customizable
MagicBands or if you will be a day Guest and purchasing MagicBands, but in either case you will not be locked in to your plans based on when you customize or purchase your MagicBand. All of your
reservations and tickets, including theme park tickets, FastPass+ reservations, hotel reservations if you are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel and your Disney PhotoPass account, are actually held in your
My Disney Experience account. Your
MagicBands will also be linked to your My Disney Experience account. Once you are on your trip, your MagicBands will allow you access to the entitlements in your account. Simply scan your MagicBand at the touch points located at the theme parks and off you go!
So you are more than welcome to customize your MagicBands if you are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel, or purchase your MagicBands if you are not, whenever you are ready and you will be able to continue to make and modify plans up until your trip! (Keep in mind that if you are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel, your MagicBands will not ship until approximately 30 days prior to check-in.)
Let us know if you have any other questions as you continue to plan! T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
