    Will there be designs of Magic Bands+ other than those that are available online in the shops at the park?

    Howdy, Julie. Welcome to planDisney!

    Using MagicBand+ is such a great way to unlock even more magic during your Walt Disney World vacation. Aside from linking them to your My Disney Experience app and connecting to your park tickets so you can use them for entry, you'll also enjoy haptic responses and color-changing lights during different shows and experiences throughout the resort. If there are any Star Wars fans in your party, don't forget to make sure they use their MagicBands to play Batuu Bounty Hunters in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. You'll even be able to use MagicBand+ to pay for food and merchandise throughout the resort. 

    All of these features make MagicBand+ a solid investment for your Walt Disney World vacation, plus you can reuse them during future stays in the magic! You'll be thrilled to know that there's a wider variety of MagicBand+ designs available in merchandise locations across the Disney World resort. You can find them anywhere merchandise is sold, and you will often find different bands at different locations. For instance, your Disney resort hotel may carry resort-specific bands while Animal Kingdom merchandise locations might carry designs that are exclusive to that park. Once you purchase your bands, follow these easy steps to link them to your My Disney Experience account. 

    Since you'll be using MagicBand+ during your vacation, consider adding Lightning Lane passes to your trip. These passes allow you to skip the traditional standby queue and enjoy shorter wait times for select attractions throughout Disney World. You'll use your MagicBand to scan into Lighting Lanes when you head to attractions at your designated return time. It makes using the Lightning Lane a breeze. 

    I hope this information is helpful, Julie. If you need more help with planning come on back and let us know. We'll see ya real soon.
