MagicBand 2.0 unveiled at D23 Destination D

Disney unveiled MagicBand 2.0 for the first time at Destination D. The new MagicBand features an updated look designed to be more customizable for guests. 

Attendees at D23’s Destination D: Amazing Adventures also got a look at some accessories that will be released in the future. The new band’s design allows guests to take out the middle disc and attach it to accessories other than the band, to be used for lanyards, keychains, etc.

Guests will need a small screwdriver to be able to transfer the disk between accessories. No word if any will be included in the future.

Disney plans to roll out MagicBand 2.0 to their Annual Passholders in the next few weeks. Guests will start seeing them available in the parks by the end of December. After that, guests booking resort stays at Walt Disney World will begin receiving the new band.
