Good day, Tara!
Welcome to planDisney and thank you for bringing your MagicBand+ question to us!
It recently purchased a new
MagicBand+ to use at the Disneyland Resort! Not only did I link it to my
Disneyland Mobile App, but I also paired it to my mobile device through Bluetooth. While this extra step was not needed, it allows my band to interact with theme park attractions, live entertainment,
Disney100 statues and nighttime spectaculars. If you want to experience the glows, pulses and haptic vibrations that happen throughout the resort you’ll want to make sure your band is fully charged and paired through Bluetooth. But, even when your band is not charged and paired, you can still use it at the theme park's main entrance turnstiles,
Lightning Lane entrances and with
Disney PhotoPass Photographers.
But, be sure to not only link your MagicBand+ to your Disneyland Mobile App, but also assign which
Theme Park Ticket will use the MagicBand+. Lastly, do not throw away the box it comes in without first retrieving the included charging device.
I hope this information is helpful! Enjoy a wonderful visit to “The Happiest Place on Earth!” Please come back to planDisney with more questions!
