Hi Toni! Welcome to planDisney. You are joining a group of motivated Mouseketeers who are very eager to hear about MagicBand+ coming to the Disneyland Resort! As someone that spends time at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort throughout the year, I cannot wait for MagicBand+ to land at the Happiest Place on Earth!
While we don't have an
exact date of when they will be available, we have been told it will likely be "later this year". My best advice is to stay tuned to the
Disney Parks Blog and the
@DISNEYLAND and
@PLANDISNEYPANEL Instagram accounts for news. With the launch of
MagicBand+ at Walt Disney World just this last week, we can take a few pixie-dusted guesses on where we might be able to purchase them. While my crystal ball isn't as clear as Madame Leota's in the Haunted Mansion, I would say they will likely be available at select merchandise locations at the Disneyland Resort as well as Shopdisney.com. We don't have pricing information quite yet, but I can share that the versions at Walt Disney World are currently $34.99 with prices always subject to change. During my time at Walt Disney World, I love being able to use the MagicBand for purchases, opening hotel room doors, and scanning into the parks, but I truly cannot wait to see what kind of magic these deliver to our Disneyland days!
Toni, I know you were hoping for some more concrete answers. Trust me, we are in the same boat over here just waiting eagerly for this exciting news! To pass the time, I recommend listening to the
planDisney Podcast! You'll hear insider tips and tricks from my fellow panelists on all kinds of topics from Resorts to
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge to
Halloween Time and our beloved Disneyland Nighttime Spectaculars! The best part is that they are all filmed in some pretty fun locations, so you can watch them too!
If you have any more questions, you know where to find us! We are always here for you at
planDisney.
Magic awaits!
