Hi there, Jerri Lee!
Welcome to planDisney and thanks for stopping by with your question! Do you have an upcoming visit planned for the Disneyland Resort? Then you've definitely come to the right place. I think it's a great idea to consider getting yourself a MagicBand+ to prepare for your trip. As a tech geek, I was especially excited when I heard that they were being
introduced at the Disneyland Resort in 2022!
The first thing to note is that only MagicBand+ is currently being supported at the Disneyland Resort. So if you are anticipating a visit, make sure that you get a MagicBand+ and not one of the previous versions.
Unfortunately, a MagicBand+ is not given free of charge to Disneyland Resort visitors. They must be purchased either on
DisneyStore.com (if you would like it shipped to your home before your visit) or at various locations once you arrive on property. You'll find the largest selections at
World of Disney in Downtown Disney District and the
Emporium in Disneyland Park. There are so many cool designs that you're sure to find something to appeal to every taste!
With a new MagicBand+ in hand, you'll be able to easily scan into the Parks, link PhotoPass pictures, and redeem Lightning Lanes. You can even join the Bounty Hunter's Guild while in Galaxy's Edge and channel your inner Boba Fett to level up your bounty hunting skills!
Jerri Lee, thanks again for stopping by and I wish you the best as you decide on a new MagicBand+! Please let us know if you have any more questions because we're always happy to help you plan a wonderful vacation. Until next time!
Wishing You a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow!
