Hi Summer,
Hooray! Now that you have your
theme park ticket purchased, it's time to start
counting down the days until the magic and fun begin!
I'm happy to share that all you'll need to do to use a
MagicBand to access the theme parks is make sure your ticket and your MagicBand are
linked to your My Disney Experience account. A MagicBand doesn't store any information on it; rather, it simply links back to your My Disney Experience account, so it will be able to access any tickets or reservations on your account! Easy peasy, huh? If you'd prefer to use a
card to access the parks, you'll want to stop by a ticket booth, Guest Relations location, or the front desk of your Disney Resort hotel. Bring your confirmation email along with a valid photo ID, and a Cast Member will be happy to get you all set up with a complimentary card. Have you heard that there's now another option to enter the theme parks? With the all-new
Disney MagicMobile service, you can use a smart device to access your theme park ticket and enter the parks, too! All of these options are interchangeable, so please feel free to use a MagicBand, card, and/or the Disney MagicMobile service whenever you'd like!
I see that your visit is happening this fall. Not only will the incredible
Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival be going on, but did you see the announcement yesterday that
Disney is offering a Halloween-themed event this fall called Disney After Hours BOO BASH? It sounds frighteningly fun!
Thanks so much for visiting us at planDisney, Summer, and please let us know if we can help with anything else as you're thinking through the details of your trip. I hope you have a truly magical vacation this fall!
