We are staying at WL in March and have purchased tickets as "will call". We will have magic bands when we arrive. Do we need to go to a guest relations at a park to add the tickets to our bands or will this be done at the resort?
You don't need to pick up the tickets at all.
If you input their confirmation number (right now) to your
MDE account, they will already be
in your MDE file even before you arrive at WDW,
and that file is what is accessed by your MagicBands**.
(If for some reason you'd like to have hard-copy tickets, they can be picked up from
your resort concierge.)
**Just to keep things as clear as possible-
There is no reservation info, or ticket info, or credit card info,
or FP+ info "put onto" a MagicBand.
The MagicBands just contain a unique serial number that is used
to access the information that is stored in your MyDisneyExperience computer file.
So, even if you were to lose a MagicBand, the info stays locked in your file.
Disney can just set up a new band (different serial number)
to access the info in your MDE file.
The MagicBand works like the combination to a locked safe, or a key to a locked door.
Why does this distinction matter?
Because there is so much fear about losing bands and,
in turn, losing all of a guest's information thought to be on the band.
The MB, itself, is not the file of info or the container of the info.
The MB just unlocks the file of info to be read, when needed.
