Hello Louis!
MagicBands, also known as
Disney Bands, are a fantastic way to unlock the magic at Walt Disney World. These little wonders serve as your room key, park ticket, and even a convenient way to make purchases throughout the parks and resorts.
Now, here is the scoop for international guests. While MagicBands can no longer be purchased ahead of your visit, there is a silver lining. Once you arrive, you will find an even wider selection than what was previously available for presale. You can browse and purchase them at all four theme parks and resort gift shops. My
planDisney friend Lynne especially loves the variety at
Curtain Call Collectibles, which is definitely worth a visit.
In the meantime, before you pick out your perfect MagicBand, you can use
Disney MagicMobile on your smartphone to access many of the same features. That way, you will be ready to step into the magic from the moment you arrive.
Fun fact: MagicBands turn 12 years old this year! They were first introduced in 2013 and changed the way Guests experience the parks.
See ya real soon!
Anne
