Hi Reean!
MagicBands are one of my favorite additions to a Walt Disney World Resort vacation because they make your visit to the theme parks so easy and convenient. MagicBands are linked to your
My Disney Experience account and allow you to access all of the entitlements and reservations in your account. You will touch your MagicBand at theme park entrances to access your admission tickets to enter the theme park. You will also use your MagicBand to redeem your
FastPass+ reservation at FastPass+ queue entrances and to add photos to your account when taking pictures with
Disney PhotoPass photographers. Plus, when you wear your MagicBand on select attractions, your attraction photos will automatically be linked to your account - no need to find your photo after the attraction. And when you enjoy select attractions while wearing your MagicBand, you will receive exclusive attraction videos that are only available for Guests wearing MagicBands!
While Disney Resort hotel Guests receive complimentary MagicBands, all Guests are welcome to use them for their vacations. You can
purchase MagicBands online or at one of the merchandise shops throughout Walt Disney World Resort. In addition to solid color MagicBands, there are also graphic MagicBands to choose from that will allow each Guest to pick a band that matches their favorite Disney Character, attraction or even Disney snack!
Once you purchase your MagicBands, you will need to
link them to your My Disney Experience account so they can access all of your entitlements and reservations. I recommend that you download the
My Disney Experience mobile app because I think it's the easiest way to link MagicBands and it's my favorite way to manage all of my vacation reservations!
Let us know if you have additional questions as you continue planning your vacation. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
