The EXCLUSIVE Way to Get 4 MagicBands for a DISCOUNT in Disney World

MagicBands may not be required to navigate around Disney World anymore, but we’ve noticed that a lot of people still choose to wear them! It can be convenient to have everything you need to get into the parks or your room right there on your wrist, instead of having to pull out your phone or physical ticket.

VIDEOS: FIRST LOOK at MagicBand+ in ACTION in Disney World

By Sara McOmber 9 Comments

Disney is releasing the new generation of MagicBands this summer, called MagicBand+. These bands will do everything that existing MagicBands do — like work as your ticket to the parks, your hotel key, and a method of payment — but they’ll also have some NEW interactive features.

MagicBand+

We’ve already checked out these MagicBands (when Disney accidentally released some early last week 😬), but the new features didn’t debut with the bands since that release was premature. Now we’ve got a first look at the MagicBand+ in action! [Read more…]

The ONLY MagicBand+ Guide You NEED to Read for Disney World

By Samantha Kendall 13 Comments

It’s no secret that Disney World is constantly dreaming up new ideas and innovative ways to bring the latest technologies into the parks.

Cinderella Castle

Remember the days when you had to physically walk to a kiosk, scan your Disney ticket, and it would print out a PAPER FastPass? And now, with the help of Genie+, you can skip the line at the touch of a digital button. Disney introduced another piece of innovative technology — the MagicBand — several years ago, a sort of all-in-one wristband that serves as a hotel room key, park “ticket,” can be used to pay for purchases around the parks, and can connect PhotoPass pictures to your My Disney Experience account. Disney had previously announced that an all-new reimagined MagicBand would be rolling out in the parks, and now that it is live in Disney World, we’re sharing everything we know about the upgraded tech!

PHOTOS: EXCLUSIVE INSIDE Look at the Disney World Event You’ll Likely NEVER Experience

By Kelly Oliveros 4 Comments

Disney World is a magical place for many reasons — the incredible theming, the fantastic rides, the amazing shows, and the delicious food (of course). But, perhaps, the most important thing that makes Disney World the Most Magical Place on Earth is something else entirely. It’s…

Magic Kingdom

…the Cast Members. We’ve said it time and time again, Cast Members are the true magic makers in the Disney parks. They are what makes things so incredibly special. Just a kind gesture, a free sticker, or a small sprinkle of “magic” from a Cast Member can MAKE your trip. Special Cast Member interactions are often the things we remember for years and years to come. Cast Members sometimes get special celebrations to mark big work anniversaries with the Company. Recently, we got the chance to attend one and now we’re giving you an EXCLUSIVE look inside!

This Hotel Room Near Disney World Is Bigger Than A House…And Costs More Than One Too

By Shelby Smith 1 Comment

When you book your Disney World vacation, you have a LOT of options when it comes to hotels. You can stay in a Disney hotel, like Pop Century, Caribbean Beach Resort, or the Contemporary Resort. Or, you can stay in a non-Disney hotel close to the parks.

Pop Century Resort in Disney World

One of those non-Disney hotels that is close to the parks is the Four Seasons Resort Orlando, and they’ve just announced two new packages in celebration of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, but they’re going to cost you!
