Our DFB reporters are in the Disney parks, and they are telling us the one Disney park essential they are seeing everywhere.

Magic Kingdom
Our reporters are in the parks every day, so they know a thing or two about the best things to bring to guarantee a successful trip. A great park bag to hold your essentials is important. When we asked them which specific bags they are seeing in the parks, they shared the top bags guests are carrying.
Get this Rapunzel Loungefly Backpack!

One of the most popular styles of bags we see is the Loungefly Mini Backpack! We love the many styles you can find in these, and even your favorite Disney movies and characters. Like this Rapunzel Stained Glass Loungefly, which is an Amazon Exclusive. These are big enough for your park essentials, but still compact enough to be comfortable to carry around.
This Loungefly Convertible Backpack is so handy!
If you love Disney bags but wish you could get a little more space and versatility than a traditional Loungefly mini backpack, this convertible bag is a really solid option! The design centers around Sorcerer Mickey, and it definitely leans more toward a statement piece than a subtle park bag, but in a way that still feels wearable for everyday use or park outfits. We tested out this bag recently, so you can read more about it here!
We love how easy a belt bag is at the parks!
There’s no denying that belt bags are all over the Disney parks, specifically the Lululemon belt bags. If you’re looking for something small enough to hold your phone, wallet, and travel-size essentials, this bag is great. It also makes it easy to get on rides.
Or, you can grab Fjallraven Kanken bag!
If you’re looking for a stylish yet functional option, then these Fjallraven Kanken might just be the perfect one for you. This bag is small but mighty, has enough space for the essentials, and is durable enough to last you through multiple park trips. I mean, we’ve been rocking ours since 2019, and it’s still going strong.
For the parents, this one is the bag you need!
Petunia Pickle Bottom District Backpack was created with the modern parent in mind. Our bag is spacious, lightweight, fashionable, and convenient to take with you for a quick commute or a planned day away. This bag is big enough for all the items you need for a magical day with your kids.
Or, you can grab this Waterfly Crossbody bag.
One step up from belt bags are slings. They are still pretty lightweight and convenient, but with a little extra space. Want to be able to pack a bigger bottle of sunscreen and a reusable water bottle? This bag is for you. Slings offer a similar convenience to belt bags but with a little more wiggle room. You can keep them light if you wish, depending on how you pack. Some of our reporters won’t head to the parks without a sling, so let’s see a few good options for them.
And finally, this North Face mini backpack can hold the essentials.
The North Face Borealis Mini is a water-repellent backpack that features a padded top handle and zippers that are easy to grab. The water-repellent feature makes it ideal for those summer storms in Florida. This bag can carry everything you need from park opening to closing.
