UPDATE: The title of this article originally stated that this change had already gone into effect. Unfortunately, this change is coming soon and is not already available. We will update this story when the upgraded MagicBands are available.
According to the Disney Parks Blog, Disney hotel guests along with new and renewing Annual Passholders will soon have the option to upgrade their complimentary solid-color MagicBand to a MagicBand that features designs and their favorite Disney characters. There will be over 30 designs to choose from, and the price of the upgrade will reflect “a $14.99 discount off the regular retail cost through the My Disney Experience website.”
Of course, you don’t have to upgrade your MagicBand, and like always they will be “shipped to guests’ homes (U.S. addresses only) if ordered 11 or more days ahead of arrival and can be personalized if done so at least 6 or more days ahead of arrival.”
