A popular item at the Happiest Place on Earthappears to be going awaydue to smart phones, with the end coming for the interactive MagicBand+ products at Disneyland.
Disneyland officials told The Post that the bands will continue to function as a fun interactive experience for guests at the park, but will soon only be available throughDisneystore.comand at the Walt Disney World Resort.
The news comes following a post from Nexstar’s Scott Gustin who said that supplies in the park and at retailers around the famedAnaheim attractionare dwindling.
“MagicBand+ products appear to be on their way out at Disneyland,” Gustin’spost on Xread.
“They’re currently available at just three locations, and, from what I understand, the resort is expected to sell through its remaining inventory, with no additional shipments expected.”
According to adescription about the bands, visitors can “be a part of the show! MagicBand+ glows with color and pulses with haptic vibrations during World of Color, Fantasmic! and other select nighttime spectaculars.”
“Your MagicBand+ also adds a surprising and magical touch to select experiences at Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure Park.”
The costs of the band starts at $34.99 and “styles are subject to availability and prices are subject to change without notice,” per the Disneyland website.
According to a report fromInside the Magic, the band debuted at Walt Disney World in 2013. But it wasn’t until 2022, that they became a thing in Disneyland. Early versions weren’t rechargeable and didn’t have LEDs.
The MagicBand+ gives visitors the ultimate park experience, as the silicone park-themed strap functioned not only as one’s ticket to the park, but also to Lightening Lane access too, per the report. They can also be paired with smart phones for personal customization.
