3 – Let’s Talk About Interactions!
Magic Band+ interactions are perhaps the most exciting feature of this wearable technology. Experience the beat of the Haunted Mansion Bride’s heart, feel the rush as you launch into the Grid on Tron Lightcycle/Run, and interact with statues of your favorite characters located throughout all four parks. Additionally, the Magic Band+ enhances select shows at Walt Disney World, such as The Festival of The Lion King and For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration. The nighttime spectaculars are where the Magic Band+ truly shines! Watch as it comes alive during Happily Ever After at the Magic Kingdom, Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Luminous at Epcot. Be sure to keep an eye out for other special surprises throughout Walt Disney World!
Discover the excitement of interactive adventures that make the most of the MagicBand+! Don’t miss Batuu Bounty Hunters at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, DuckTales World Showcase Adventure at Epcot, and A Pirate’s Adventure: Treasure of the Seven Seas at Magic Kingdom. These captivating experiences will keep you entertained for hours — and the best part is, you won’t have to waste time standing in line for these thrilling activities!
4 – Disney Band+ on the Shining Seas
The interactivity doesn’t stop on land at the Disney Parks! You can take your Magic Band+ (referred to as Disney Band+ at sea) on the magical journey with Disney Cruise Line. Begin your adventure by using your Disney Band+ to board the ship—just tap your band, and you’re on your way to the magic of Disney on the sea! You can also use the Disney Band+ to charge purchases to your stateroom, access your stateroom as your room key, and discover various surprises throughout the ship.
1 – Magic Band+ at Home!
The interactive magic doesn’t end at the parks; you can bring it home with you! The MagicBand+ has the ability to connect with Amazon’s Alexa. You can extend the fun by setting a timer through Alexa, which will alert you with magical light patterns on your MagicBand+. Additionally, by enabling the “Hey Disney!” skill on your Alexa, you can play interactive trivia using your Alexa and MagicBand+. The MagicBand+ also has an embedded NFC tag, allowing you to set up your phone to scan it as a shortcut. What fun!
