It’s OFFICIAL. MagicBand+ has been released in Disney World, and we’ve tried out all the new features. These next-generation MagicBands can do everything that normal MagicBands do, but they’ve got a few extra perks attached to them as well. The base cost for these bands is a bit more expensive than normal MagicBands — they start at $34.99 apiece. So are they really worth that extra cost?

We’ve seen some pretty amazing designs on MagicBands, including some new holiday bands, a Haunted Mansion-themed one, and — one of our personal favorites — a designer MagicBand celebrating EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival. One of the newest MagicBands (coming out soon!) is another EPCOT-themed one, and it’s available for pre-order at a discount for some guests. [Read more…]
Buying a Disney MagicBand is one of the fun planning things the whole family can do.
Taking a closer look!
A long time ago, in a resort far, far away, Walt Disney World resort guests and annual passholders would get MagicBands for free. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t that long ago, but the fact of the matter is that now, we all have to pay for our MagicBands. Many are a pretty basic $20. But why are some Disney MagicBands SO expensive? Let’s see if we can figure this out.
It’s no secret that Disney World is constantly changing.
Walt Disney World Resort
Between decor, new attractions, and construction, Disney continually adds magic to its parks. Since 2020 was a year full of closures and a worldwide pandemic, Disney has had to adapt and make changes. But, what are the biggest changes as we head into the year 2021? Let’s find out!
There are a LOT of reasons we can’t wait to visit the Walt Disney World theme parks again when they reopen on July 11th. In addition to all the rides and treats, we’ve even been missing the little things, like rocking our MagicBands!
MagicBands
While there is NO shortage of fun MagicBand colors and styles, right before the parks reopen, there’s a royally GORGEOUS new shade on the block!
Looking to add to your MagicBand collection? Look no further than Hollywood Studios!
The Darkroom
With all the excitement over the new slap-band MagicBands, it’s nice to kick it ‘old school’ with the classic band that started it all. And we spotted a couple of new retro MagicBand designs at The Darkroom.
