It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster when it comes to MagicBands in Disney World lately!
MagicBands
We found out last year that a new generation of MagicBands would be released some time in 2022, but an official release date has not been released. However, the new MagicBand+ was recently put on sale accidentally for a very short amount of time before Disney pulled them from the shelves (we were able to snag one, though!). So, until they’re officially available, we’ll keep telling you about when new styles of the current MagicBands are released. And, there’s a new band that only a select group of people are able to grab!
Check out this NEW Art of Animation Finding Nemo MagicBand! It’s a limited release that’s available now for pre-arrival for $25, which is discounted from its normal price of $39.99.

But, only certain people are able to buy this new Finding Nemo MagicBand! It’s only available to guests who have an upcoming stay at a Disney World hotel and Annual Passholders. You should be able to view this on your My Disney Experience account!

We’ve seen Finding Nemo MagicBands in the past, like this bright blue one (which has a hidden Mickey on it!)…
Find it yet?
…and this royal blue one that features Crush and Squirt!

But, this new white Finding Nemo MagicBand leans more into the animation elements that you can find over at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort.

And, remember, this is still the current version of the MagicBand, it’s not the new MagicBand+ design.
New vs. Old (but the new isn’t available yet!)

I’m not an annual pass holder and it gives me the option to choose the art of animation magic band. I have a reservation at art of animation for January.
Where can I find the Winnie the Pooh Magic Band?
Is this Art of Animation an MB+ or just an MB?
