This Is the Best Place to Cry in Magic Kingdom


Recommended Posts

We’ll be totally honest…we’ve definitely shed our fair share of tears in Disney World.

From sobbing on Main Street, U.S.A. during Happily Ever After to crying tears of sadness when it’s unfortunately time to head back home, we’re no strangers to breaking out the waterworks in the parks. And if you’re in need of a good cry and looking for a place in Magic Kingdom to let it loose, we’re sharing our best spots to cry in the park.

Hall of Presidents

First up, we’ve got the Hall of Presidents as a solid option. Twenty minutes in the dark with air conditioning and comfortable seats? It sounds like the perfect place to sob quietly in the back row! No one will hear you over the sound of a bald eagle screaming. (That doesn’t really happen, but those are kind of the vibes of this show.)

If you’ve got some feelings to let out, then it’s hard to find a better place to do that than a comfy, quiet theater show. Which brings us to our second choice.

Carousel of Progress

Carousel of Progress is also a great option for many of the same reasons as Hall of Presidents. The show is dark, lasts about 20 minutes, and the seats are comfy. It’s often hailed as a favorite spot for naptime, so why not add it to the list for shedding tears as well?

The bonus here is that the theme song is super catchy, and you’ll probably feel a lot better by the time this show is over. That through-the-century charm gets us every time!

Pinocchio Village Haus Balcony

Did you know there’s upstairs seating in Pinocchio Village Haus? The restaurant has a balcony area that spans both indoors and outdoors, and the tables aren’t usually too packed. Pop a squat down in the back corner and you’ll have the perfect location to let those tears loose.

The benefit to doing your sobbing here is that you can enjoy a snack while you cry. Grab a flatbread and drown your sorrows in carbs and cheese. 

Storybook Circus Tent

Tucked away in the back of Storybook Circus is a large tent with plenty of seating, outlets for charging your phone, and plenty of shade. It’s a great spot to relax and take a break, and it’s usually not too crowded — making it an excellent location to have a good cry.

Plop down in one of those comfy chairs or take a seat at a picnic table and just enjoy yourself a 20-minute break to release your emotions. Parents often sit back here with their crying toddlers and babies, so you might not be the only one shedding some tears. 

Various Bathrooms

And of course, we have the favorite crying location for many people on our team — the good ol’ bathrooms. Sometimes, when a Disney World vacation is overstimulating or you’re just having one of those days, the bathroom stall is the first place where you get a moment to yourself.

If you’re hoping to get in a good sob sesh, it might be a good idea to find a quieter restroom where there are fewer people coming in and out. And of course, it’s probably good courtesy to not keep people waiting if there’s a line out the door.
