Using the MagicMobile feature on your Apple Watch allows you to access all of the same features as a regular Magic Band. With this technology, you are able to gain entry into any of the four Walt Disney World Theme Parks simply by tapping your watch at the turnstiles. Additionally, you can use it to access your Disney Resort hotel room and redeem select digital entitlements like FastPasses and meal credits. And if shopping is more your thing, you can also use your Apple Watch to make contactless payments within Walt Disney World property with just a tap.

Not only does using an Apple Watch as a replacement for a traditional Magic Band offers convenience and ease of use for guests at Walt Disney World but it also adds an extra layer of style and flair to your vacation look! With special Dooney & Bourke-inspired Apple Watch bands available in various designs and patterns, there’s something for everyone.

So next time you’re planning a trip to Walt Disney World, don’t forget to bring along your Apple Watch! With its ability to act as both a fashion statement and as an easy way to access all that Disney has to offer—you won’t regret having it along for the ride!
