Hi Lynda!
Welcome to planDisney.
You can order your
MagicBand+ for your forthcoming trip by using your My Disney Experience account, either online or on the mobile app. If you use the app, scroll down to 'My Reservation' and then tap on 'Choose Magic Bands'.
This discounted offer is only available for guests from the United States. If you purchase your MagicBand+ 11 or more days before your reservation date, your MagicBand+ will be shipped to your home address. For orders place 6-10 days before your arrival date, it will be sent to your Disney Resort hotel for collection when you check in.
For a wider selection, I often purchase my MagicBand+ in advance from
Disneystore.com, to have it delivered to my Disney Resort Hotel before my arrival. They usually have a good selection, and update their stock often. If you place an order, ensure you enter the delivery address as "Your Name" + "GUEST arriving -
insert your arrival date" then add the name and address of your Disney hotel, (which can be found on the Overview page of your hotel on the website). On arrival, advise the Front Desk that you have a package waiting for you, and they will link your MagicBand+ to your account. I like to place my order around 10 days before I arrive to ensure the package is waiting for me. It should be noted that you will be charged a Resort fee of around $6.00 (subject to change) for any package received for you by the Front Desk.
Alternatively, if you want to make your selection in person on the day you arrive, all the gift shops at Disney hotels usually hold a limited amount of stock of MagicBand+. Have a look around the shop when you arrive, and if you find a design you like, the Front Desk will set it up for you.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions, or you can
send me a direct question if you wish. We are always happy to help you plan your magical vacation at Walt Disney World!
