tripadvisorWe came to see the Beatles vs Rolling Stones tribute bands battle it out in concert. The venue is old world and has a classy nice ambiance. They offer bar service with beer and mixed drinks at premium prices. The sound was great and the concert was awesome we really enjoyed our evening here.
MoreI came to the Fox to see a great performance and discussion with the legendary band Los Lobos. The auditorium is an old, grand movie palace, and overall, it's a really nice venue. Parking is reasonable and easy, right behind the theater (enter on Fairmount Blvd), and it's next door to a trendy food hall.Unfortunately, its operator, Live Nation, leaves much to be desired. First off, the show time was advertised as 7:00 PM, however, the show time on the digital ticket was 6:00 PM. After thinking I was going to be late, I rushed to get there, and found out it was indeed a 7:00 PM start. However, the show didn't actually begin until almost 7:30! During the performance, there were numerous patrons who started recording video. I understand the venue wanting to squash that, but there were several instances where security made me get up so they could pass through my row (when a few rows behind were completely empty) in order to tell people to put away their phones.To add insult to injury, the sound was poorly mixed the entire evening, with instruments overpowering vocals almost the entire time. Overall, this is a nice, classic venue, but its operation is basically amateur hour. For all the fees Live Nation charges, you would expect a much more professional experience.
MoreMedium-sized venue just right for a solo performer. Easy check-in, helpful ushers. Background music before performance started was much too loud and interefered with conversation.
MoreFox Theatre has been around longer than I have. Good times and bad times. Officially the former right now. The venue still has the old school theatre setting, with less than a thousand seats. Every time I have gone (most recently saw Boz Scaggs for the first time) I have had great seats because there aren’t really any bad ones.Overall I love the setting, free parking and an awesome food lab right next door. But the one missing star is the exclusive association with Ticketmaster. That means the tickets, while quite reasonable at the door, will never be available that way. Every ticket will have a huge markup, which sucks and doesn’t put any money in Fox’s pockets. Would be awesome if they could be independent, but I guess those days are gone.Despite that I still love the venue, just don’t love Ticketmaster.
MoreThe Fox PAC is a smaill theater. All seats have a good view of the stage. FYI: Doors open at 7pm. Shows starts approx 9pm. During the pandemic the Fox PAC is only serving Popcorn. Best to have dinner before arriving at the Fox PAC. Save your money, and purchase the General Admission tickets. Currently during the pandemic there are no real perks for VIP tickets. Do not waist your money on VIP tickets
