    Fox Theater lives up to all expectations- what a stunning and mesmerizing piece of history right in downtown ATL. We came for a Broadway show and start to end it was spectacular. The workers were all nice, and for how many people came navigating in and out really wasn't too bad. The only kind of weird thing is the bathrooms are downstairs so that can get super crammed, especially the women's side. You do have to get the right seats, though. There's a huge balcony but only the middle section really allows for a real view of the stage, so don't be tricked by that. Otherwise, you're better off being down below. Also, if you are farther back on the main floor, make sure to walk up closer to the stage and look up. Trust me, it's worth it.

    We visited the Fox Theatre in Atlanta for the first time to see the stage production of Elf, and it was a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season. I've always loved the movie with Will Ferrell, and this Broadway‑style version captured the same humor and heart. I found myself laughing throughout the show. The production quality was strong--great pacing, lively performances, and costumes that were colorful, festive, and full of personality. You could tell a lot of care went into bringing this story to life on stage. Our seats, however, were definitely in the "nosebleed" section. The view was fine overall, but it did strain the eyes a bit from that height. Note to self: next time, spring for seats a little closer to the action. One thing that made the experience especially memorable was the audience itself. The theatre was filled with families--lots of children and adults who were fully engaged and applauding throughout. That energy made the show even more special for our little one, who loved being part of such a joyful crowd. Even with the distant seats, I'm glad we went. The Fox Theatre is such a beautiful, historic venue, and the atmosphere always adds something special to the experience. Between the architecture, the energy, and the holiday spirit of the show, it made for a memorable night out. A great production in a stunning venue--just get better seats next time and you're golden.

    How lovely! The building is beautiful, and they really did try and maintain it as much as possible, and it shows how well the kept it. It's great that this piece of history will continue on as it has for the past almost 100 years! I'm so glad I got tickets to see a performance here because the experience was great. I definitely will have to keep my eye out for other shows to catch. Surprisingly, security was fast. It took me maybe a minute to get through and scan my ticket. Staff was friendly and really helpful. They check tickets for seats before directing you to another member that will guide you to your seat. My friend and I came to see Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, and it was amazing! I believe they stopped by Atlanta last year, and I'm glad that they returned. According to the program, each day had some differences as to what was performed, and I considered going again just to see the other dances. Truly talented people come to perform, and it's so great that Fox is here as a venue for them to showcase their talents.

    What a gorgeous piece of history! I visited the Fox Theatre to see Alvin Ailey with my girlfriends and it was such a fantastic experience. As theater nerd and longtime lover of the arts, it's crazy that I hadn't previously visited the Fox but I'm so happy that I finally did. Purchasing tickets online was incredibly easy and the price range was wide enough for ballers and those on a budget. We snagged some great balcony seats with a great view of the stage for under $60. Total win in my opinion. When we arrived, it was a madhouse downtown. It seemed like everyone in the area was going to the show! Parking in the area was an absolute nightmare as the line to park next to the theater was a half dozen cars long and only public lots were available per usual. Once I got to the door, the crowd was ready for the show! Luckily, there were about 4 or 5 lines open for tickets to be checked, meaning there wasn't a long line to get inside. Once inside, the place is massive. There were employees in every corner assisting folks and one of them showed me where I should be headed for my seat. The inside of the theater foyer looked exactly as I imagined. The fabric, the detailing in the architecture, the smell of popcorn, it was just amazing to see and experience. When we went inside, I was blown away by the beautiful ceilings! I can't even describe the beauty. I always want a snack with my shows so I'm happy that there were so many concession stands. They offered things like popcorn, chips, candy, beer/wine, water and soda. I opted for a bottle of water and a big bag of freshly popped popcorn. That popcorn was great! When I visited the theater I was 9 months pregnant and, phew. Walking those stairs was a task but a good little workout for me. When I made my first journey to the restroom I was stopped by an older employee who sweetly scolded me for walking all of those staircases and going to the regular restroom while pregnant, lol. She helped me to the stairs and pointed out the accessible bathrooms to me, telling me to stay off of my feet. So appreciated! We really enjoyed the performance and the entire experience overall. It's so wonderful to have such historical buildings standing tall and still offering such special memories to this amazing city. Can't wait to go back!

    I was overjoyed to start off my first event of the year at the Historic Fox Theater to see Alicia Key's production, Hell's Kitchen (absolutely fabulous). Pros: -The Box Office opens several hours before the shows (this provides an opportunity to upgrade seats). -The security at The Fox is bar none! They manage the lines and quickly move the crown through the scans. -Staff is vey friendly, welcoming and super helpful. - Food options are pretty good (although pricey). -Upstairs sound quality is great. Cons: -The Box Office staff is super slow and there are no line markers to separate Box Office/Will Call from the window for Season Ticket holders. -On the Orchestra floor, the sound quality is hit or miss depending on where you sit. Tip: Avoid double letters on the left and right if you can. - Exiting the theater through side doors can be super dangerous at night. The stairs are step and lighting is limited They should have a sign to warn seniors. Many of them were having difficulty getting down.

    Went to Fox theatre to watch the Blue Man Group, and wow! What a great experience. The whole experience and venue was amazing. Comfy seating and plenty of leg room, and a good amount of selection for food and beverages. Overall awesome atmosphere too!

    I've been to the Fox theater before for an actual show and I definitely enjoyed my experience there. This time, however I came for a wedding and prior to being invited to this wedding I honestly didn't know that you could even have weddings at the Fox theater. Now that I've experienced it, it's definitely a great venue in my opinion and I would recommend it to anybody that is looking for a wedding venue. So just from the outside, the Fox theater entrance is so beautiful and the wedding couple's picture was displayed there at certain points, which was really cool. They had somebody working there, directing us to where the actual wedding was which I appreciated. The actual wedding venue itself is just really beautiful and logistics wise made sense. I've been to some weddings or big events where if you're not seated in a certain part of the room, you're basically not gonna see anything just due to the columns that are built in the building. I've definitely had my view blocked a couple of times because of being behind a column to where I just couldn't really see the dance floor or what was going on easily. With the way it's built nothing blocks your view at all and again it's just a beautiful venue. Even the floor has like an ancient Egyptian design as well and there was a separate room for the bar and that was spacious and easy to access from the main room. Everything was well lit and just beautiful. I absolutely loved it and if anybody's looking for a wedding venue, I would suggest the Fox theater because as an attendee I really enjoyed myself.

    One of the most beautiful venues I've ever been to see a live music concert and a broadway play. The Fox is special. When you sit upstairs you feel like you're amongst the stars. I look forward to going to the Fox any chance I get. It's a great area of Midtown with many shops and restaurants as well for a pre show dinner and drinks. Alcohol inside the Fox is pricy. But the experience is second to none.

    Went to see the Nutcracker (a Christmas gift to my fiancé--she loved it). We had mobile tickets, took seconds to scan. The ambiance is very cool. The staff seemed to work by assigned zones which worked like clock work. Once we entered we were at our seats very quickly. Intermission was like traffic on 285 at rush hour but they had signs/staff directing the crowds. There is food/snacks/popcorn and drinks (wine/beer). Pricy to me, but eh ‍. I'd also recommend taking an Uber.

    I went to the Fox theater for an event and they they did a good job. The organization had the upstairs and downstairs pretty booked so you can go upstairs or downstairs or outside on the patios. They had multiple bars and a lot of little areas to duck off if you wanted to get away from some of the crowd. The service was good, even though the service could have been a little bit better, but to be fair they had a ton of people there so they can only do so much so I have to give them Grace. The facility was clean and the security had everybody organized so I felt safe and everything along those lines was good. I look forward to the next time I get a chance to go.

    Visited the Fox Theater and this time I had Marquee Club access. The food was great from Asian Short Ribs and Kimchi Rice to Prosciutto and mixed cheeses and more. All the food was delicious. Natania was our waitress and she was very very pleasant. She answered all of our questions and she explained the flow of the Marquee Club. For dessert we had cheese cake and pecan brownies. Very good too. Enjoying lunch before the matinee was a great experience. I'd definitely recommend this experience. The ambience was extremely loud and crowded. It was the different variety of food options for me.

    The mini beef Wellington inside - underwhelming

    From start to finish, I had an amazing first time at the Fox. Buying tickets online was a breeze, as well as working with staff who were nice enough to follow up on questions I had via email and telephone prior to the event. If you are a newbie like I was, just know that you have to buy club level seats in order to add on the Marquee Club Day Pass if that is something you are looking to do. You can't just buy a random seat and try to add it on later. There are designated areas that have the automatic add-on when you purchase, so just peruse the seat selections til you find it or call and ask. For people who are already season ticket holders of course or have other memberships, then there are options applicable to them for Marquee Club membership as well. If you want somewhere to chill before and after the show with very little to no wait times for bathrooms, no lines at all for entry and early access to your seat, and access to multiples pay-bars with no lines, as well as great food and drink that come with your purchase, then adding on the Marquee Club, even for a day pass is worth the extra expense. If you cannot stand very long or have pain doing so, I highly recommend this. I skipped all the long lines and got right to an empty, single person bathroom, then right to the lounge to eat. There are 3 levels of the club. I think my favorite was the rooftop lounge as it had beautiful views of Midtown and was not crowded at all. The first level did not have a lot of seating area at first as it was the busiest, but I still found a spot on a corner of a couch to eat and then took my dessert up top. All the staff were so pleasant and hospitable. You really get the service you paid for. The food was excellent, although, the salmon I got was a little cold inside. The Beef Wellington (minis) were pretty underwhelming as there was barely any meat, but it was cool to try for the first time. My favorites of the night were the chicken pot pie with sweet potato biscuits - so good and comforting! And the arancini, not on the menu, but brought out later, were nearly addictive. I went back for extras on those. The dessert was not anything special, but it was nice to have. The macarons were probably my favorite. I did not try the cookies. The red velvet cupcake was definitely on the drier side including the frosting. The elevator was not manned in the Marquee Club but it was for the main, large ones leading up to the show floors. I don't think I have ever been in a manned elevator before. It reminded me of Pretty Woman lol. Even those were not busy as most people crammed down the stairs. Section LRD, seat EE16 was my chair and honestly I would not pick that one again, only because I was right up against a dividing railing, but it was still okay. Just something to note. The seats are not the most comfortable if you are plus sized like me, but if you can make it thru a plane ride, then you'll be okay! I had initially called to see if I could bring a cushion for my back but I am glad I didn't as there would not have been room for it. The venue was packed, but everyone seemed to have a great time. I know I did! Jo Koy even went an extra hour - 2 hours total, since our crowd was showing him such great energy! After the show I was happy to be able to relax back in the club while everyone else scurried out. I called my Uber and had a comfy place to wait it out. Next time I might get a drink, but just know the alcoholic drink prices are like airport prices lol and not included with your MC pass. I highly recommend rideshare if you don't want the hassle of remembering where you parked, having to walk, or paying hefty parking fees. Plus with all the car break-ins in Midtown you might be better off! Overall, it was an awesome Christmas gift to myself and I highly recommend coming to see a show here if you have not yet - a gorgeous venue and amazing staff!

    Rooftop bar!

    Absolutely loved my visit to Fox Theatre this weekend! Absolutely recommend the Marquee Club!!! It includes unlimited food (heavy hors d'oeuvres, popcorn and desserts, and coke products plus desserts), access to lounge areas with lots of seating, private bars, and bathrooms. The seating for the show was also awesome and the theatre was beautiful and likely recently updated. Loved seeing a show here!

    Do the bars/concessions accept credit cards inside The Fox Theater? Or are they cash only? Can't find any information about this on their website or on Google. Thanks.

    We paid with a debit card.

    First time at Fox Theatre. Our seats are MAIN ORCH LC Row B 51-55. Will we have a good view and not be too far back? It's difficult to decipher on the seat map.

    You are super close at row B. You will be sitting in first level, which is main orchestra and lc means left center so you'll enter through I think gate B. You're literally in… 

    What happens if you loose your tickets for a show at the Fox?

    Most probably they could re print it for you. But you should call

    How much is parking?

    It depends on the day and what events are happening around the area, specifically at the Fox.

    Was the premiere of Gone with the Wind at the Fox?

    No - "Gone with the Wind" premiered at the now-demolished Loew's Theater, not the Fox.

    Where is the best place to park?

    There is a parking garage immediately to the north of the Fox and also on the block corner to the south of the Fox. However, these fill up very quickly, and I'd recommend either walking form the nearby MARTA station or taking a ride share.

    I am deciding between orchestra Z with seats all the way to the right and first dress circle in the balcony. Does anyone recommend either section?

    First dress circle.

It was clean, easy to grab a drink, and incredible to get so close to the artist performing. It really elevates the performance and whole experience. Shoutout to Wynne for putting on an incredible concert!

The building decor and design in itself is a treat--in an artsy and historical style--but the sound system in that hall was on fire! The line outside wasn't terrible, and the staff and security were all very respectful and laid back. No drama. Fair warning, they let me in with my mini-backpack but tossed any snacks I had in it. No biggie! So, if you find yourself touring around Centennial Park and want to catch a show, it's not too hard. The main floor allows for the party to really happen, but only for those who can endure standing for hours at a time as it's standing only. There's a floor level for VIPs, which I bet was totally worth the money. We sat up in the balcony, so we could sit and see it all. Whew! The seats are very snug! I'm only 5'3", and it was a squeeze for my legs. My 6'1" hubby said he was ok, but his legs were open the entire show to fit. On that note, be prepared for LOTS of stairs! Drinks were tasty and made well. My pizza wasn't exceptional in any way, but it was edible for bar food. And really, the bartenders were all friendly and patient. Just a cool night altogether. Great experience for a small-venue show on a date, with girlfriends, or a big group of fans alike! We saw James Blake, and the only issue I had was the bright flashing lights. I had to squint by the end of the show. But it didn't seem to bother the other thousand in the hall.

I'd add it…read morenear the end like this: I recently visited Center Stage Theater on two separate days for the Claressa Shields vs. Kaye Scott fight events--Thursday for Media Day and Friday for the official weigh-ins--and the venue was a great setting for both. Center Stage has a really cool atmosphere that works especially well for an event like boxing. It feels intimate enough that you're close to everything happening, but still has the professional feel you want for a major media event. From a media perspective, I appreciated being able to experience the venue on back-to-back days and see how well the space transitioned between Media Day and the weigh-ins. The staff was welcoming and professional, and everything felt organized throughout both visits. With fighters, trainers, promoters, photographers, videographers, media, and guests all moving around, organization can make a huge difference, and the venue handled the activity well. I also really liked the character of the theater itself. It doesn't feel like a generic event space--it has its own personality and creates a great backdrop for photos and video, especially during something as energetic as a boxing weigh-in. One tip I would definitely give anyone planning to visit is to check the parking apps before paying at the kiosks. I was able to find parking for $21 for the entire day through an app, while paying directly through the parking kiosk was $14 for only three hours. If you're going to be at Center Stage for several hours, especially for an event, using a parking app can save you quite a bit of money and keep you from having to worry about your time running out. Being there for the Claressa Shields vs. Kaye Scott Media Day and weigh-ins gave me the opportunity to experience Center Stage Theater in a completely different way, and I came away impressed. Two days, two different events, and a great experience both times. Definitely a venue I would be happy to return to for another boxing, entertainment, or media event.

    Staff was very friendly when we came in. Everyone helped us find the location of our seats…read more Bathrooms were clean, the venue was nice and clean. The bartenders were top notch and very funny!! Would definitely come back to an event here in the future!

The ambiance and overall mood of the restaurant were beautiful--definitely a nice setting for a girls' night out. Unfortunately, our server really took away from what could have been an even better experience. She was incredibly cold and sterile throughout the entire evening. At no point did she seem happy to be serving us; instead, we were made to feel more like a burden than guests. We were warm and inviting toward her, but we never got so much as a smile in return. It was noticeable enough that it became hard to ignore. That said, the food was GOOD. I ordered the $30 burger, and it was every bit as delicious as I hoped it would be. I couldn't even finish it because my appetite said "girl, that's enough" , but even a day or two later I was still thinking about how good that burger was! I also had two $30 French 95s, which definitely caught me off guard. I would have appreciated knowing there was an upcharge before ordering the second one. That said, I also take some responsibility for not asking more questions before ordering. Despite the service, my girlfriends and I still managed to have a great time, and that says a lot. I'm just not sure I'd return. The food and atmosphere were enjoyable, but when you're spending this kind of money, the service should match the experience.

    Walked from our hotel for dinner at 6 on Tuesday night. Only two tables occupied and we were told…read morethat if we dined in the dining area and stayed after 7, we would be charged $10 per person cover charge for the live band. I'm glad we were given the info beforehand so we can make sure we are done and out the door by 7! The bartender was our server and he was very friendly but since he was doing two roles, the service was fairly slow. We didn't fault him for that, just giving a heads up in case you get the bartender too. Anyways, we ordered the fried green tomatoes app, the fried catfish and grits, and peach glazed pork chop with sweet potato and green beans! All the food was delicious and seasoned perfectly! We were stuffed so decided on chocolate cake and peach cobbler to go. We did not care for the dessert unfortunately but we would definitely be back for the food!

    3.2015 & 7.26.2024…read more Welp this is embarrassing. I've been here twice, had amazing experiences, and didn't pen a review. 2015, my gf who lives in Atlanta recommended while I was visiting on a work trip. Great recommendation. We had a great time catching up over delish food items while listening to jazzy tunes. I even saw a few famous folks while here as well. 1st impressions are important and this one was grrrreeeeaaattt!! Welp on 7.26.2024, Hubby and I visited and sat at a high top at the bar area. We were greeted by Joseph who was pretty attentive, making great recommendations. We came in for drinks and ordered the following Down South Peachtree Tea ... & then I HAD to order the Catfish Nuggets. The drinks and my catfish were all amazing! Speaking of amazing, great bands all the time!! This place is the total package for the soul. We have a trip coming up sooner than later to the A and we are certainly returning!!
