Available in numerous designs and colors, it’s a great way to show of your personal style in the parks. It’s also rechargeable (charging cable included), waterproof and you have the ability through the Disneyland app to personalize it.
MagicBand+ will feature different experiences, depending on if you are at Walt Disney World or Disneyland Park. Here’s a few features in the new upcoming Disneyland version.
