Hi, Lisa! Welcome to planDisney.
Thanks for stopping by with your question. One of the coolest ways to enhance your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is by using a
MagicBand+. These handy bands not only serve as your theme park ticket and Resort hotel room key, but they also let you charge purchases to your room and link your
Disney PhotoPass photos. With MagicBand+, you’ll also experience interactive elements around the parks, like lighting up during nighttime spectaculars or buzzing during certain attractions. Everyone in my family has one!
As you've noticed, not all MagicBand+ styles available on the
Disney Store website appear as options in the
My Disney Experience app when purchasing through a Resort reservation. That’s because the pre-arrival discounted selection is specially curated by Disney and includes only certain styles. This collection can vary depending on availability and current promotions. If a particular design has caught your eye on the Disney Store website but doesn’t appear in your My Disney Experience options, it may not be included in the pre-arrival offer at this time.
Here’s a tip: If you have your heart set on a specific MagicBand+ that’s not in the pre-arrival selection, consider purchasing it at full price from the Disney Store website or once you arrive at Walt Disney World. You can link any MagicBand+ to your My Disney Experience account, no matter where it was purchased, so you’ll still be ready to tap into the magic the moment you arrive!
