I have both old and new magic bands for our family. How can we use some of the old ones that have cool pictures on them in place of the one colored magic bands we received last year with our reservation for our trip this June?

Question

Answer 1

Welcome back to planDisney, Elizabeth!

Thank you for stopping by with a great question! We are happy to continue to assist you as you plan your upcoming visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!

I have a Princess Tiana MagicBand from a previous trip and I love it! I know I will be wearing it every single visit until it does not work anymore! Did you know that once your MagicBands have been linked to your My Disney Experience account, they can be used interchangeably? This means you are welcome to go ahead and bring all your favorite MagicBands to your Disney vacation! If your MagicBands are older than two years they may not be working anymore, so I recommend bringing your new ones just in case.

Elizabeth, I am happy to share that Disney MagicMobile is now available for iPhone and Apple Watch users (coming soon to other smart devices). This magical service allows Guests to enter the theme parks and water parks by holding their iPhone or Apple Watch near an access point, just as they would do with a MagicBand or ticket card. After linking valid admission to your Disney account, use the My Disney Experience app to create a MagicMobile pass, add it to your Apple Wallet, and head to the parks to enjoy your day!

I hope this information is helpful, Elizabeth! Come back to visit us if you have additional questions, we are delighted to help!

Best magical wishes,
Thiana
