Hi Nicole,
Thanks so much for visiting planDisney with your question!
Disney bands (called MagicBands in the United States) are such a fun way to add convenience to your Disney vacation. With a simple tap, you can unlock your Disney Resort hotel room door, enter the theme parks, link
Disney PhotoPass pictures, and even pay for meals or souvenirs. My kids loved picking out Disney bands and they are always so excited to use their band to open the Disney Resort hotel room door!
Unfortunately, Disney bands aren’t available for International Guests to purchase before their trip. The great news is that you’ll find them once you arrive at Walt Disney World Resort, and linking them to your
My Disney Experience account only takes a moment. If you’re staying at Disney Resort Hotel, the Resort gift shop should carry a few Disney Band options. For a larger variety, you might like to browse:
Once your band is connected, you’ll be ready to go. It’s a good idea to charge your Disney band before your first use, so if you’re purchasing it at the parks and would like to use it later in the day, I recommend bringing a small portable charger with you (your band will come with a charging cord).
I hope this helps as you get ready for your magical vacation! Have a wonderful time exploring
Walt Disney World Resort, and remember - you can always come back to
planDisney for more tips before or during your stay.
See ya real soon,
Candace
