Hi Cristina and welcome to
planDisney! I’m so glad you stopped in to see us with your planning question!
You can definitely use your smartphone to pull up any
theme park tickets you have for yourself or anyone in your travel party. You can also print your tickets and show them to the Cast Member at the theme park entrance.
I suggest you download the
My Disney Experience App before your visit, so you can
link any tickets, Disney Resort hotel reservations or dining reservations to your account. You can also place and pay for
mobile orders at quick service restaurants at all four theme parks via your app. It’s a great place to help you organize all of your vacation information!
Cristina, while you do not need a
MagicBand to enter the theme parks, they are really convenient to have. If you have bands from a previous visit, already linked to guests in your travel party, they can use them again. Just make sure they have a valid theme park ticket and band assigned to them on your account. My family and I re-use MagicBands all the time! You may also want to take a peek at the bands available on
shopDisney, just in case you change your mind. They have some really cute seasonal bands!
I’m sure there are some special activities in store for the coming months, so you will want to keep an eye on the Disney Parks Blog
for updates. The blog is a great place to keep track of all the happenings at the
Walt Disney World Resort!
I hope this information is helpful to you. If you have any more questions, don’t hesitate to come back to see us. For more planning tips from the planDisney family, you can always view our
Panel Extras before your
magical visit. It's our pleasure to help you!
