Welcome to planDisney, Angela! Thanks so much for coming to us with your question today. MagicBands are such a convenience, and I love having one on when I'm at Walt Disney World Resort because it makes so many aspects of my vacation so much easier! From entering the Theme Parks to paying for my purchases, using a MagicBand really contributes to making my trip run smoothly.
Angela, a MagicBand purchased two years ago should be perfectly fine to use on your upcoming trip. Those batteries last a long time and should still have the same functionality they had when you bought them! I recently used a MagicBand that is almost four years old, and it functioned just as well as the day I got it. As long as they are still connected to your
My Disney Experience account under "MagicBands and More," they should be good to go!
Have you had a chance to check out
MagicBand+ yet? It's the newest version of MagicBand and has some fun new features. It will light up at nighttime spectaculars, help you interact with the
Fab 50 Character Collection, and more! There are so many fun designs available to choose from, and I recommend taking a look at the
Emporium or
Creations Shop on your upcoming trip.
Have a magical day, Angela!
