Back in May, Disney announced that Walt Disney World Resort hotel guests would have the option of upgrading their MagicBand with 30 fun options. Our readers expressed a lot of enthusiasm for this discounted pricing on some of their favorite designs!
MagicBand Upgrade Screen
Essentially, guests staying at a Disney resort from late-May onward could log into My Disney Experience and choose to upgrade their complimentary solid-colored MagicBands to bands with designs featuring beloved characters, attractions, and more. The cost for doing so was about $15 less than guests would pay for the same bands in the parks.
The “Get Your Ears On Celebration” is in full swing at Disneyland right now, celebrating 90 years of Mickey Mouse (and his gal Minnie) with specialty treats, special merchandise, and more!
