Every Disney fan knows the resort morning routine. You wake up, grab the remote, and the TV tells you what the parks are doing. Ride wait times, park hours, a live look at the skyline. The day hasn’t started, and you’re already planning it.
Then you go home, and the TV goes back to being a TV.
WaitSigns.com built a fix for that, and Inside the Magic is giving one reader the whole setup: a Wait Time TV, a MagicBeacon, and a full year of service, a package worth $414.75.
This giveaway is a paid promotion sponsored by WaitSigns.com.
It’s free to enter and takes less than a minute. The entry form is at the bottom of this page.
What you win
One winner will receive:
- Wait Time TV ($124.99). A small media player that plugs into your TV with the included HDMI cable, the same way an Apple TV or Roku does. Setup takes about two minutes and requires a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection. Wait Time TV
- MagicBeacon ($50.00). New this year. It plugs into the USB port on your Wait Time Display or TV, making your MagicBand+ light up, flash, and vibrate in sync with what’s on screen. MagicBeacon
- 12-month subscription ($239.76). The Wait Time TV needs an active subscription to run. This covers a full year of service for the TV ($14.99/mo) and the MagicBeacon add-on ($4.99/mo), including live fireworks sync.
Want a shot at all of this? Scroll down to enter. It costs nothing.
What the Wait Time TV does
Once it’s plugged in, your TV becomes your own resort channel:
- Real-time ride wait times for all six parks, plus park hours and special events. New rides are added automatically, so the display doesn’t go out of date when something opens.
- Live fireworks every night. Close-up views of the Magic Kingdom fireworks, streamed in high definition.
- Virtual Terrace. A live stream of the Orlando skyline.
- Magical Multiview. Watch up to four theme park live streamers at once on a single screen. Ride something in one park while catching a parade or fireworks show in another.
- Live piano bar request shows. Performers you may recognize from the parks play your song requests in real time, monthly.
- A personalized welcome screen. Your TV greets you by name, with your check-in date, like arriving at your resort for the first time.
- A Countdown Fireworks Show. Watch your name appear in the night sky as the days count down to your next trip.
You can also upload your favorite vacation photos, and the monorail will hop you from park to park with a click of the remote.
What the MagicBeacon adds
The TV puts the parks on your screen. The MagicBeacon puts them on your wrist. Pick a live fireworks stream and your MagicBand+ reacts in real time to every color, flash, and vibration. Your bands also glow every night when Tink flies over the castle, and any guest’s charged MagicBand+ works automatically, with no pairing or band setup. You’ll need a MagicBand+ to use it.
For anyone who has stood on Main Street with a MagicBand on their wrist, that’s the detail that makes the living room feel like the park.
