    I purchased my Magicbands in 2017, How do I know if they are still working?

    Hello Norman!

    I am excited that you are planning a Walt Disney World vacation! I love using a MagicBand as my magical key to unlock all of the magic on my Walt Disney World vacations. I have over 50 MagicBands, so you can see that I love them!

    You can use MagicBands from a previous Walt Disney World vacation for your next Walt Disney World vacation as long as they are active in your My Disney Experience Account. According to my experience, the battery inside the MagicBand is designed to last for up to two years or more, so you can use your MagicBand for more than one Walt Disney World vacation. I have not heard of a way to check the MagicBand battery at home. My advice is to bring your MagicBand on your Walt Disney World vacation and see if it works for park entry. If your MagicBand battery is depleted, you can purchase a new MagicBand at many Walt Disney World stores in the parks, resorts, and Disney Springs. 

    I hope that your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation is truly incredible!
