I just bought our tickets for December 11 - woo hoo. I am a semi-novice (only planned one other trip almost 6 years ago) and I have a question. I have not ordered park tickets yet (Will likely order from
UT) - when do I purchase the magic bands? I order them from the Disney website correct? then link the tickets once I get them from UT? Should I wait to see if special bands for Christmas time come out (meaning do they usually have a special design?) Thanks for any help. I guess I should add we are staying off property. We are getting excited over here.[/QUOTE
The MVMCP bands are limited and only sold at the parties. The bands last about three years before they die....however the puck with the chip can be swapped out with a new one....making the band portion last a bit longer. There are a lot of band covers on Etsy that customize your bands for you. There is quite the selection at the
Disney store.
