Welcome to planDisney, Sophie!
You are correct that
Disney band (or MagicBand+) orders cannot be shipped internationally at this time. The ability to place a
Disney band order is linked to the address associated with your My Disney account. Unfortunately, because your account has an international address, you would still be unable to pre-order a Disney band even through you’re in the United States.
I know this isn’t the news you were hoping for, Sophie. You can still
purchase a Disney band once you arrive in Walt Disney World. In the past I’ve purchased a new band in my Disney Resort, but I find that the best selection of designs can be found in the theme parks. Since you’re visiting in late August, you’ll see the start of spooky season at Walt Disney World. You might even find a Halloween-themed Disney band! And if you’re not attending
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, you can usually find Halloween treats throughout Walt Disney World Resort. So, keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog for a
Disney Eats Foodie Guide with all the details about what treats are available before the Halloween Party and where they can be found!
Enjoy your upcoming visit to Disney World, Sophie! We’re here to help at
planDisney if you have any more questions!
