    Hi, does the Disney Hotel guests receive a magic band at the check in or hve to buy it prior

    Hi Leticia! Thanks for visiting planDisney.

    Guests of Disneyland Resort Hotels do not have the option to purchase MagicBand+ as a part of their hotel stay at this time. You will not receive a pre-paid or complimentary band at the time of your check-in.

    If you want to use the hands-free benefits of bands during your visit, you can purchase a band once you arrive. You'll find them available for sale in the hotel gift shops, select stores in the Downtown Disney District, and many merchandise locations in the parks. There are lots of different fun designs, so you'll be able to pick out a band that fits your style. My boys have Star Wars designs and my husband and I rock a classic Mickey design.

    I think you'll love having bands at Disneyland Resort. My family always wears ours. You can scan into the parks and Lightning Lane Entrances using your bands, which really comes in handy, especially with a larger group. I like not having to dig for my mobile device and swipe through the Disneyland mobile app in those moments. The band also provides further immersion in select Entertainment and on some Attractions, lighting up and buzzing away. That's always a fun surprise!

    Have a magical stay.
