Jambo, Jiayin, and welcome to planDisney!
I’m sorry you are having issues with your new MagicBand. From what you are describing, it sounds like you may have accidentally purchased a MagicBand, not a
MagicBand+. MagicBands are the older generation of the MagicBand+ and are not rechargeable. This would explain why you don’t see the charger connectors on the back. Unfortunately, only a MagicBand+ can be used at the Disneyland Resort at this time. I know that’s not the news you were hoping for, but you can always pick up a MagicBand+ when you arrive for your trip. Many merchandise locations have a small selection available for sale, so get to the parks extra early to pick yours out, link it, and start using it right away. The good news is they come partially charged, so you should still be able to use it for most of your day.
Jiayin, be sure to check out the
Foodie Guide to Holiday Treats at Disneyland Resort on the Disney Parks Blog before you leave for your trip. With so many scrumptious treats to look forward to, you’ll certainly want to map out your must-try items ahead of your arrival. In the meantime, if you think of anything else we can help with, please stop by planDisney again. Have a magical trip!
See ya real soon,
Alyssa
