    A beautiful walk back in history at The Fox Theater. We watched Chris Botti last night and absolutely had a great time. Highly recommend to watch anything here. Small bar and snacks available. Go see a Live performance!

    Just attended a Pat Metheny solo show. First time at this venue since I've returned to the desert. Looks like the first of many (just purchased Govt Mule tix for Feb next year!). Beautiful venue, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. Even security was helpful in expediting in getting the line through more efficiently. Our seats were upstairs in the balcony. There is a bar upstairs, as well as a bathroom. Both very helpful, considering the alternative means going downstairs (usually DURING a show). The only complaint we had were our seats. I would recommend NOT getting balcony seats that are up against the bottom rail/wall. I think the legroom must be less than regular seats, because we were both extremely uncomfortable with the lack of room we had. My guest even had to get up and move due to discomfort. I didn't know this when I ordered my tix, so didn't make the same mistake on the Govt Mule seats. In all, no reason NOT to take in a show at this lovely venue. Good acoustics too (important).

    Enjoyed a "Night of Queen" concert immensely. The theater is small enough to have an intimate experience with the performers and the reconstructed theater is beautiful.

    Excellent event venue. Wife and I saw Orleans and Pablo Cruise in concert last weekend, and the sound was very good. Beautiful and historic theater with nary a bad seat in the house. If you're going with a significant other, book the love seat option. It is excellent. As stated by others, drinks are expensive, but you can always forgo that if you need.

    We went to see the Muppet Christmas Carol, which was fun for the family. We had trouble finding a parking garage that was open nearby and were almost late to the show as a result.

    I love the Fox theatre. It's a great place for concerts and I've seen my share of great shows there. It's a beautiful venue, the sound is great and the layout of the music hall is perfect. I wish it could have a couple more bars to serve drinks, but I understand there's a plan to expand the lobby. When that happens, it should be the nicest small venue in Tucson.

    Easy and quick in. We visited for an Andy Grammer Concert and it was such a sweet experience. The venue was beautiful and small enough to make the event feel special.

    Beautiful theater. We're very lucky to have such a gem! We went and saw Clint Black there, every seat in the place feels like front row, there's not a bad seat in the whole theater The theater is just so pretty. Only downfall for me... The drinks were crazy expensive. Let's put it this way, my date went to grab me a vodka/sprite, he came back with my drink and 2 girls next to me and the funny lady talking really loud behind me all asked if what I had was a sippy cup, not joking- the cup was for a 4 year old and we paid $15 for a sippy cup. Unreal. I'll post some pics of the concert and I'll go find my Fox Theater sippy cup and send a pic as well, I thought someone was playing a joke on me, teehee, at least the concert was good!

    Went and saw "Get the Led Out"! The place was ROCKING! They sounded A LOT like Led Zeppelin. Oh my goodness. There was not a still body in the theater. Everyone was rocking out. It was nice to see that a good time was had by all!!!!

    My family and I come to many events at the Fox. Every seat is a great seat and the sound is pretty excellent for most performances. All the people that work the shows are incredibly friendly. I like the fact they have reusable cups and the bathrooms are clean. Keep up the good work

    FOX Theater is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!.Gorgeous old building with incredible painted ceilings and carvings on ceiling and wall. Love seat seating available upstairs. One bar on each of the floors (two stories). Beautiful large stage. Great staff. Great array of performances and shows. Everything is super comfortable from the carpeting to the seating. Clean. I have had no problem hearing or seeing whether seated on the 1st floor or the balcony. What more can you want?

    As an artist, it is a great restored classic theater, a joy in which to perform.

    Row w behind band people. The pit. Socks. No leg room at all. My back was against the seat and my knees hit the rail in front. At least disclose thia and not charge full price. The mavericks were amazing.....would have been better if I was not roled up in a sardine can for 2 plus hours. Come on fox theatre, disclose

    Many, many wonderful acts perform at the Fox Tucson Theatre in Tucson and it is a spectacular venue! On a regular basis, the Fox has world-class touring bands, comedians and performing artists come through town. The acoustics are excellent in this historic 1930 Art Deco, intimate location (far better than the Rialto) and the staff is very professional. Larger touring acts frequently appear at the bigger venues up in Phoenix, but I would rather see a show at the Fox Tucson Theatre any day. The quality of talent they book at the Fox is astonishing. We have seen Cirque Mechanics, Underwater Bubble Show, David Grisman and Del McCoury (Del and Dawg), Old Crow Medicine Show, "Weird Al" Yankovic and classic/holiday films on the big screen. The seating doesn't have much leg room, but the tickets are reasonably priced and they sell popcorn at the snack bar! There is no bad seat in the house! See you at the Fox!

  • 5/5 Daryl R. 11 months ago on Google
    We attended an Eagles tribute concert at Fox theater recently. We appreciated the attentive and efficient service from security staff and ushers and the beautiful refreshed historical theater environment. The option to purchase drinks and popcorn was welcome even though we didn't take advantage. We'll definitely attend more events at this local Tucson treasure!

    We saw the Roots and Boots concert and thoroughly enjoyed it. The Fox is a perfect size for concerts.

    First time at this venue- Cowboy Junkies concert. Really enjoyed being there. Great acoustics! Comfortable seats. Clean. Appreciate the concession snacks. Looking forward to attending future shows.

  • 4/5 Donald R. 11 months ago on Google
    This place brings great bands, and is in excellent condition. However, I have attended theaters in other cities, especially Chicago, where the staff is far more friendly, and you feel far more at home. There is just something missing at this venue - comfortableness. Part of it is the crowd. I’m not sure what it is about to Sonen’s, but they just don’t seem to get as enthused about the music as crowds watching the same bands in Midwestern cities. It’s OK to stand up and enjoy yourself.

    Tickets were easy to purchase online. The show was great and interactive! We saw The Greatest Showman sing a long version. The theater was cool, and the seats were comfortable. There is plenty of seating for all. Parking right near the theater is only $6 for the whole night.

    This place is lovely. I loved how it has been restored. I’ve attended concerts and paid for a Meet the Artist event for Tommy Emmanuel which was lovely, but had to walk down and up some pretty steep stairs. No elevators. I’d do it again, but hope to be in a little better shape by December.

    Had a good time. Older classic theater. If you have a hard time standing getting there early does not work. The outside doors open well before the inside theater doors. Still had a good time.

  • 5/5 Verrinia K. 1 year ago on Google
    I love the Fox! 🦊❀️ It's a smaller venue so really it doesn't matter where you sit there's a pretty decent view (this also means that good shows sell out faster than other places might). If you plan to attend buy your tickets through the actual Fox Theatre website as early as possible!! Their ticket prices are amazingly affordable but the resellers get a hold of them through 3rd party companies and it just gets ridiculous from there. This was my third visit over time and as always the staff was friendly and helpful and I haven't been disappointed with a show yet! Show some love to your local theatre, will update my review when the remodel is completed. 🀩

    The Fox Theater is grand as ever. I had the chance to visit during a special ballet titled 'Footprints at the Fox' held October 7th, 2022. The theater is majestic and will be hosting Ballet Tucson events from Oct of 2022 through March 2023. It is always a delight to see performances in this old nostalgic theater.

    What a great time we had at the Mavericks concert! The Fox is nearing its 100th anniversary, but still puts on a terrific show! The lobby is way too small, as are the restrooms, but the seating is good and the sound system rocks!

  • 5/5 Carol G. 1 year ago on Google
    Went to the Three Dog Night Concert at the Fox Tucson Theatre which was a flash from the past. Fun to relive the music and revisit the band. Live music is truly a joy. The Fox Theatre is a beautiful renovation of a fantastic old theatre. The seats are comfortable, many helping hands around to guide you, the restrooms were clean and adequate, drinks are available too. Parking available all around the theatre. They offer all ranges of music groups, plays, etc. Check their web site for more info.

    I guess this was the 1st show at the Fox in 18 months since Covid. We went to the Big Bad Voodoo Daddy concert, excellent by the way. Masks are required and they said proof of vaccination was required, but I wasn't asked for mine. This was my 1st visit to the Fox and the venue is gorgeous. The staff were very helpful and pleasant too.

  • 4/5 donna s. 2 years ago on Google
    Great Venue. Now only to get all guests to follow the rules!! Covid Card & ID, MASKS to be worn at all times are the rules, but, never had to show anything and few masks were worn. Come on people.....want to get back to some kind of normalcy?? Follow the rules! And Staff......Enforce the rules or get them out. No masks, No vaccine proof......No Service!! Don't post the rules if you are not going to enforce them!!
