Pretty much anything playing here, from film festivals to traveling Broadway shows, concerts & The Nutcracker, is great. The building itself is magnificent inside and out. See what's playing & go!

One of a dwindling number of vintage movie palaces in the nation, the Fox was built in 1929 in a fabulous Moorish-Egyptian style. It's crowning glory is its ceiling, complete with moving clouds. Read more

Beautiful theater , originally commissioned by the Shriners… It ended up as a movie palace . the exquisite details, with design elements from the orient, remain and make this a truly unique venue.

Plan a date night at the historic Fox Theatre . Ask Concierge to arrange a private tour for the two of you to see the inner workings of Atlanta’s favorite venues.

Who doesn't love to invest energy in this superb facility? One tip for summer film celebration goers: No compelling reason to purchase tickets ahead of time. You will pay $4 overhead for open seating ,

Opened in 1929 as a lavish movie theater , the Fabulous Fox hosts a variety of cultural and artistic events , as well as a summer film series.

Alda Blakeney Wright

This is a beautiful venue & there is not a bad seat in the house.

Karen Estrada

Plan where you will park before going and allow extra time. If you're planning to park nearby it will be difficult to move at the traffic lights when all the people are walking to the theater too.

Hotel Indigo

No matter what you love, there’s a performance at this beloved landmark . After the show, stop by our hotel’s café to see framed photos of the graffiti from the walls of the theatre’s projection room. Read more

Immerse yourself in the holiday spirit with a special showing of The Nutcracker at The Fox Theater through December 24. Arrange a private tour of the theater to see behind the scenes.

Joseph Bosso

Wonderful Theater . I really like it. This theater play opera game and some french comedy as well .

Steve Mok

Their weather policy puts their bottomline ahead of the guests' safety. Cancelling 1 hour before the show during Snow Jam 2014, after saying show will go on, NO refund all day. Friend got in accident

Always great to visit the best theatre in Atlanta! Great shows and great service.

Scoutmob

The Lynyrd Skynyrd album 'One More From The Road ' was recorded at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in July of 1976. It was recorded as an effort to help save the Fox. Looks like it was a success.

Meghana Bendre

Beautiful theatre . Take the time to just look around before a show. Make sure to walk towards the stage and look up.

Always always always buy the parking pass when you get your tickets. It will save you from spending a crazy amount when you get there and parking far away.

Using metal detector now.No guns mace or knives... disagree w/ no mace especially as a woman walking in Atlanta.homeless people walk right up to you after a show, so be alert. They should stop this.

The Fox Theatre has been an Atlanta landmark since 1929. Its opulent auditorium is designed to mimic an Arabian courtyard , complete with 96 embedded crystal "stars."

Tamela

Sit in the upper balcony for Phantom. He runs right in front of you. Sit on the front 4 rows for snow during the Nutcracker Ballet . Visit the summer theater series for the organ rising from the floor.

Ticket Alternative

Tickets for the Fox Theatre can be purchased through Ticket Alternative at 15 metro-Atlanta locations including Whole Foods Market , Criminal Records, Decatur CD, Fantasyland Records and CD Warehouse .

Allison Kasic

The design inside is crazy in a good way.

Scoutmob

Up on the starry ceiling-sky of the Fox Theatre, one of those shiny little lights is actually made from a Coke bottle.

Shawn

Use Ticketmaster's new "choose your seats" option and opt for THE AISLE SEAT! Especially if you're a big girl. It can get sort of cramped and hot in there.

Scoutmob

"The Cockroaches" tix were released to a line at the box office for a just-announced Rolling Stones concert . The Stones ended up playing to a confused crowd of 4,000 on their "Some Girls" tour in '78

SPECTACULARLY FABULOUS VENUE. A graceful and splendid Grande Dame, capture every moment possible here. Theater , Ballet , Cincerts, Mivues...wherever. It's perfect here.

Found great parking right at Ponce De Leon (just south of venue) - you can't beat close event parking for $15
