Magic Bands replace the Keys to the Kingdom, which was the card you would get that was your park ticket, your dining plan information, and also the ability to charge things to your room.
The Magic band has all of the information associated with your trip (Park Ticket, Fast Pass selections, Photo Pass/Memory Maker, etc.) and is accessible to your room as well as the ability to charge purchases to your room.
You will have the ability to "customize" your Magic Band. Each person in your party can choose their band color and will have their name on it, or like in the picture above you can purchase you own special design Magic Band, they also have a location in the parks that you can actually design your own Magic Band, making it truly your own.
You will receive your Magic Bands prior to your vacation. Do not pack them in your suitcase. Make sure you have them with you so they are available upon arrival.
*Update* Disney will no longer be offering complimentary Magic Bands, you can still use anyone you may own from past trips, and as well as if any Magic band you purchase while at WDW.
Fast-Pass+ (BE ADVISED SINCE COVID, THIS IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE!!)
You’ll be able to reserve an arrival window to access Fast Pass+ attractions and experiences before you leave home and make changes on your smartphone. You can reserve access to certain attractions, shows, parades, fireworks, and Character Greetings!
You are assigned an arrival window for each attraction you select. Show up any time that you wish during this window. While attractions usually offer a one-hour arrival window, other experiences like shows and parades may require you to arrive during a more specific time frame.
Depending on availability, you will be able to make up to 3 Fast Pass+ selections for attractions and entertainment each day at one theme park.
You can modify your selections online with your mobile phone (My Disney Experience app) or at a Fast Pass+ kiosk located at certain locations in the park.
I recommend you make your selections earlier rather than later as some selections may not be available at the last minute.
When making your selections, select attractions that are most popular. You don't want to use a selection for something that will not have long wait times anyway, especially since you are limited to 3 selections at a park. The Fast Pass works in tiers in some of the parks, what that means is that in Epcot for example, if you want to ride Test Track and Fast pass Illuminations, you wouldn't be able to do that since those are both on the same tier and to avoid someone monopolizing up rides, they limit your selections to 1 FP in each tier. So make sure you know what ride or attraction your family wants to do.
