How to Get Discounted Disney MagicBands and MagicBand+ (Plus Their Perks!)
If you’re heading to Walt Disney World, you’ve probably heard about MagicBands and MagicBand+. These little wristbands do a lot more than just look cute—they streamline your entire Disney experience. Here’s why you should consider using the discounted Disney Magicbands and how how to order them in the My Disney Experience app.
What Are MagicBands and MagicBand+?
MagicBands are wearable devices that function as your Disney park ticket, Lightning Lane access, resort room key, and more. With the introduction of MagicBand+, you get even more features, including interactive elements that sync with certain attractions, nighttime spectaculars, and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
Benefits of Using MagicBands & MagicBand+
1. Convenience at Its Best
No more digging through your bag for a park ticket or key card. Just tap your MagicBand at entry points, Lightning Lane queues, and even your Disney Resort hotel door.
2. Seamless Park Entry & Lightning Lane Access
A quick tap at the entrance gets you into the parks, and if you’ve purchased Lightning Lane passes, your MagicBand makes redeeming them a breeze.
3. Easy Room Access
Guests staying at Disney resorts can use their MagicBand as their room key—no more lost key cards!
4. Hands-Free Purchases
Link your MagicBand to your Disney account and charge food, souvenirs, and more directly to your resort room.
5. Interactive Fun (MagicBand+ Exclusive)
MagicBand+ lights up, vibrates, and interacts with nighttime shows like Fantasmic! and Disney Enchantment. In Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, it even lets you go on a bounty hunting mission!
