Hi Melissa, Welcome back to planDisney! It sounds like you're planning a trip to
Walt Disney World Resort.
MagicBands are one of my favorite accessories while at Disney as it offers such a convenience! They can be used to open your resort room door, PhotoPass and most importantly, enter the parks!
Melissa, I'm thrilled to let you know that you can absolutely purchase a MagicBand after arrival in the parks. Once you arrive, MagicBands can be purchased at many merchandise locations within all four theme parks, at Disney Resort hotel merchandise shops, and in many locations in
Disney Springs, especially my favorite World of Disney! The bands can be easily linked to your itinerary through your
My Disney Experience account after purchase. Once the bands are linked they are ready for immediate use.
I want you to know that you have several options to access the magic on your upcoming visit! I highly recommend downloading the
My Disney Experience mobile app ahead of your vacation and setting up
Disney MagicMobile service. This service functions also allows Guests to enter the theme parks (with valid theme park admission and reservations), link Disney PhotoPass images to their Disney accounts, and charge purchases to their Disney Resort hotel. If you'd prefer to have a physical card linked to your account for use during your visit, simply visit a Guest Relations location for assistance.
I hope this information helps you prepare for an exciting visit to Walt Disney World Resort, Melissa! Thank you again for visiting planDisney. We'll see ya real soon!
Kay
