Hi Julie!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney!
MagicBands are one of my favorite additions to a Walt Disney World Resort vacation because they make it so easy and convenient to enjoy the theme parks. Plus, if you're a Disney Resort hotel Guest, you can use your MagicBands to access your Disney Resort hotel room and make purchases throughout the resort!
Since the original MagicBands are so incredible, I can't wait for
MagicBand+ to enjoy both the existing features of MagicBands, as well as new enhancements that will allow us to interact with the theme parks in entirely new ways! We know that MagicBand+ will debut sometime this summer and since the first day of summer was officially yesterday, hopefully, that means they will debut soon. Unfortunately, we don't have a specific date for the release of MagicBand+, so I recommend that you keep an eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, and hopefully, we will hear about the release of this new technology in time for your next trip!
In the meantime, be sure to download the
My Disney Experience mobile app because it's the best way to manage all of your trip plans during your vacation. Plus, it will give you access to
Mobile Food & Beverage Ordering, which is my favorite way to save time while I'm enjoying quick-service dining locations at the theme parks!
Feel free to come back to see us if you have any additional questions as you continue planning your next trip. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
