Hey there, Jean! Welcome to planDisney. We are so glad you are here with a question for us!
Oh boy! You are just days away from your visit to The Happiest Place on Earth. I am so excited for you!
MagicBand+ at Disneyland has a more limited range of uses if you are used to using this at Walt Disney World. Unfortunately, Disneyland does not accept MagicBand+ to use as a form of payment for food purchases. You can however use it to scan into the parks and Lightning Lanes, as well as link your PhotoPass photos with the photographer. Starting May 16, 2025, you will also be able to use your MagicBand+ to unlock special moments throughout Disneyland Park for the
70th Celebration.
Speaking of food purchases, I do recommend that you make sure you have a form of payment saved to your Disney account. This will make
mobile ordering your meals and snacks much easier by not having to manually type in your card information every time. You can also use mobile checkout in the
Disneyland app at certain shops throughout the parks.
Jean, thanks for stopping by! See you real soon!
Carrie
