Buying discount convention tickets. Can I add them to my current Magic Band?

[jrsharp21]

We went to WDW last Spring Break. I still have my Magic Band left over from that trip. I will be attending a conference at the Gaylord, but I am staying on WDW property (Pop Century). The conference is offering discount WDW tickets that you purchase online before the conference. In looking at my conference schedule and the types of tickets they are offering, it looks like I will have to purchase three separate tickets. I will be purchasing one 2-day after 2pm ticket, and two separate one day after 4pm tickets. At the previous convention (pre Magic Bands) they gave me three separate admission cards. So my questions are:

-Can I add them all to one Magic Band or will I need three separate Magic Bands?

-If I only need one Magic Band, will I be able to add them to my existing magic band? Or will they give me a new Magic Band for my hotel only reservation and I will need to add it to that?

-If it is only one Magic Band, will I run into any issues at the gate with three separate tickets on one band?

Any guidance or suggestions is much appreciated.

You add them to your MDE account; nothing is on your Magic Band. You will get a new Magic Band because you have an onsite reservation, but you can use the two bands interchangeably. (Magic Bands are just a means to access the information in your MDE account.) I'm not sure how to deal with 3 different tickets though. I believe you can have them prioritized, but I'm not sure where you do that - Guest Services at any park (or DTD) would be my guess.

Thanks for the reply. So both magic bands will work since both will be connected to my MDE account?

Correct.

Well that makes it easier! Now just have to figure out the priority thing.
