MagicBand+ 70th Anniversary Celebration Interactions
Below, we will share where you can find these different MagicBand+ interaction points across Disneyland Park! At each location, you can tap your MagicBand+ to special touch points, and it will respond with custom light effects, music, and sounds unique to the attractions.
You also get collectible tickets at some of these MagicBand+ interaction spots! This is a really nice, surprising experience that really makes MagicBand+ worth it.
Tilly’s Booth at Main Street Cinema
The first MagicBand+ interaction point is at Tilly’s Booth at Main Street Cinema.
If you are a Magic Key holder, the ticket will say “Valued Magic Key Holder.” For all other guests, the ticket will say “Valued Guests” on it.
Frontierland Booth Offers Three Collectible Cards
The next interaction point is at Frontierland Booth at Silver Spur Supplies, which celebrates The Golden Horseshoe, the Mark Twain Riverboat, and the Disneyland Railroad.
This interaction point has three different scanners that each have a different collectible card featuring Mark Twain Riverboat, Disneyland Railroad, and the Golden Horseshoe.
When you tap your MagicBand+ to this station, you get an unique sound for each one.
The back of the ticket notes it’s in honor of “our special 70th anniversary guest” which is a fun touch.
These are cute cards to collect as a memento of the Disneyland 70th Celebration.

Fantasyland Window Offers Cutest Interaction
The third is the Fantasyland Window by Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, which celebrates the Snow White attraction, Mad Tea Party, Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, Peter Pan’s Flight, and King Arthur Carrousel. There are no collectible tickets here but this is by far the coolest and most intricate interaction of them all.
Jungle Cruise Ticket Interaction
You’ll find the fourth interaction point at Skipper Lockers at Jungle Cruise in Adventureland in the old FastPass distribution area where you can collect another keepsake. This is a cool ticket with the name of one of the Jungle Cruise boats on it.
Autopia Interaction in Tomorrowland
The final interaction point is at Autopia in Tomorrowland which wasn’t up and running today but should be when the celebration officially starts on Friday, May 16.
MagicBand+ also has special interactions with nighttime shows, including World of Color Happiness!, Wondrous Journeys, and Paint the Night. For another fun experience engaging with different areas of the park, be sure to check out details on the new Key to Disneyland scavenger hunt!

1. Is the magic band free? How does one obtain the band?
2. I still have my opening day ticket given to my dad for the family by Walt himself when Tom Blackburn was a writer. I would travel to Disneyland from the San Francisco Bay area with my wife of 64 years if you had a program for seniors that we could afford and without all the complexities and gimmicks. At 91, we are fully mobile but can’t deal with long standing in line nor understand things that have to be done with a smart phone. Is there a program for seniors that I don’t know about?
Hi Gary, thank you for the comment. MagicBand+ is sold at Disneyland and online. I wish there was a good way to get you to the parks! There is no such program.
Can people use the same magic band to get multiple freebies at the same booth?
Yes, when we were using the MagicBand+ you were able to scan it multiple times and receive a card. I could see that changing to avoid running out of cards.
