Disney's Magic Band

What is Disney's new Magic Band?

You've probably seen friends post their Magic Band pictures on Facebook, and you've perhaps heard about some of the "magical" properties the Magic Band possesses.  Well, here is the full list!

Every guest who stays on Disney Property or those who hold an annual pass receives a Magic Band.

to read about more benefits of staying on Disney Property, go here  

Now, guests staying off property have the option to purchase a Magic Band for a small price.  This allows them to link their tickets, dining reservations and Fast Pass + selections to their Magic Bands through the "My Disney Experience" site online.

You get to choose your Magic Band color (from the seven pictured above), and you get to choose how your name shows on the inside of the band.  If for some reason you forget to choose your color, Disney will automatically issue you a "Dumbo Grey" Magic Band.

Your Magic Band is your "Key to the World!"  Here is what it does:
1.  Room Key
2.  Dining Plan Payment (if you are on one of the Disney Dining Plans, you will use your Magic Band to pay)

3.  Memory Maker / Photo Pass  When you have a Disney Photo Pass Photographer take your picture, simply let them scan your Magic Band to link your pictures to your online account.

4.  Fast Pass +  Paper Fast Passes are a thing of the past at Walt Disney World.  Now you get to choose 3 Fast Pass + selections per day, and those choices are stored and redeemed via your Magic Band.  

5.  Park Tickets  Your park tickets are now linked to your Magic Band.  Simply scan your band to get into the parks!
6.  Credit Card  With your Magic Band you get the option to link your credit card for easier payment for souvenirs and other purchases on Disney Property.
7.  Disney Infinity Accessory  If you have the Disney Infinity game system, you can place your Magic Band on your playing pad to unlock secrets within the game!
8.  Bling Your Band  If you would like to add a little "bling" to your Magic Band, you can purchase accessories on Disney Property.


HAVE A MAGICAL DISNEY DAY!
