Its a beautifully restored theater and they have the shows I want to see. Its fun to go to a concert there and walk around downtown before and/or after. Invariably, when I see who is touring in Tuson, the show I like ar always at the beautiful Fox.

This is a beautiful old theater that was closed for a number of years, and now has been revamped. It's supposedly haunted and I believe it. It's classy and understated and tickets are usually decent priced. It's also located right in the heart of downtown, so you can make a whole day of going down there.walking around,eating and or drinking,... More

This place is visually stunning! Every inch of this theater has been put as it was, from the days when going to a theater was a big deal. If you have a chance to see a show here, do not pass it up. The accoustics are great as well. Absolute gem in Downtown Tucson!

I took my kids to see the Polar Express here in December. I have lived in Tucson since long before the Fox re-opened a few years ago, but had never been inside. I was so impressed - it's beautiful! I loved the loveseats in the balcony. The view of the stage from every seat seems to be good!

Thanks to the many dedicated individuals who worked to save and restore the Fox Theater. With the growth of the new downtown, the Fox will take its place as the true centerpiece of the downtown scene. A great place for a concert or a classic movie.

Last night, my husband and I enjoyed the New Belgium Beer & Film Festival at the Fox Tucson Theater. The event was attended by 700+ people and we enjoyed sampling different local beers, food pairings and mixing with the crowd. The theater has been restored and the decor along with the chandlers is absolute breathtaking. I noticed at least two... More

The Fox is a really lovely restored theatre and we both quite enjoyed attending the Jeff Bridges concert. However, two issues that were very annoying : 1. People entering and leaving the theatre throughout the performance. Very disturbing to the other patrons and little consideration for the performers. 2. Very noisy and a number of drunk people. Suggestion : Organize... More
