Hiya Heidi, and welcome to planDisney! We're so happy to see you here!
Thanks for bringing your question to us and congratulations on joining the
Magic Key Program! As a fellow Magic Key Holder, I can tell you that I have thoroughly enjoyed being in the Program and its many associated benefits.
I was able to chat with a Cast Member on your behalf, Heidi, and they confirmed that in order to qualify for the
Magic Key Disneyland Resort Hotel discounts, you will need to have already activated your Magic Key. I did notice, though, that you listed your arrival date as December 3, 2023 and the current
Magic Key Hotel Discount offer is only valid for stays through March 9, 2023. I would recommend checking the
Offers and Discounts page every so often as your trip draws near to see if they've released any new Magic Key Discounts that would apply. Also, be sure to follow the official
Magic Key Instagram page as they release lots of news and information relevant to us Magic Key Holders.
It's a fantastic year to visit the Disneyland Resort, Heidi! I just returned from a visit and witnessed the kickoff of the
Disney100 Celebration. The new nighttime spectaculars
Wondrous Journeys and
World of Color - ONE were phenomenal!
Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway is now one of my favorite attractions at the Resort as well. I know that you're going to have a great time!
I hope you found this information useful, Heidi. Please feel free to visit us anytime here at planDisney. We're here to help in any way we can!
Have a Magical Day!
