    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!

    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.

    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.

    The outsiders. Seats up top.

    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.

    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!

    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!

    It's always a great experience visiting the Fox Theater, whether it be for shows throughout the year or especially during the Christmas season. Attended a concert this evening and it was great. The staff were well coordinated and had all of the information that they needed, in addition to being adequately staffed for the number of people attending the event. We did not dine or partake of any of the food offerings. But I did see people with popcorn and drinks in hand. I guess the reason that we love the box so much is because it's cozier State Farm arena.

    It was my first time (finally) going to the Fox. I went to see " A Conversation with Larry David". I parked down the street at the Bank of America building, which was only a block and a half of a walk to the theater (this matters especially if you're wearing heels). The theater was absolutely beautiful. The concession personnel, and the greeters were all very friendly, welcoming and patient. Speaking of concession, the prices for food and drinks were very reasonable! I ordered tequila with pineapple juice, a small popcorn, and m&m peanuts, and didn't spend over $30! Another great perk of the theater was the seating layout. I felt like you had a good view no matter where you sat. It was agood experience for my first show, and I look forward to my second. Sidenote: (I was unaware of this rule upon entering the theater) but large purses are not allowed, they allow small purses only, just a FYI :)

    Ask the Community - Fox Theatre

    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.

    That's a very useful tip to include because the parking price difference is significant. 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.

    As I was doing some research about this venue, I was particularly interested in the parking…read moresituation. From what I read, there were a few different options. The venue has a parking lot directly under the property. Other options mentioned include an office building across the street and a hotel next door. As we approached the venue on W. Peachtree street, I saw a parking attendant waving a flag encouraging patrons to use the venue parking. I followed his encouragement and took that sharp left down the ramp. As my research reported, it was tight and congested. I had to drive down at least three different levels to find an open spot. I paid for my parking at one of the machines positioned around the parking deck. It was the usual; enter your license plate and pay with a credit card. It was fairly reasonable at $20 for 9 hours. I saw a few people waiting and waiting for an elevator that never arrived. Your best bet is to walk up the path that you drove down to get to the theater. When we made it to the top and the front entrance a staff member asked if we were drinking, checked our IDs and placed a bracelet on our wrists. Once we entered, walked past security and through the metal detectors doors, we made it to the lobby area. A full bar was right in front of us and we joined the fast moving line. They had about 5 - 7 beer options. I ordered the Scofflaw POG Basement IPA and Wifey ordered the Yuengling lager. We scooped up our beers and went to find our seats. There were staff members everywhere to help. We found our seats and settled in for the show. This is a mid-sized venue and there is not a bad seat in the house. We thoroughly enjoyed the almost 2 hour show and the artist sounded great. As the show wrapped up we headed to the restroom where we both had to stand in a line, but it was fine and the bathrooms were clean. Wifey had a longer line than I did, of course. While waiting I was able to snap a few more pics. We headed back to the parking lot which took us about a half hour to reach the street level. Overall, we had a very good experience at Center Stage and would return for another show. 3.5 - 4 Rating

    My wife and I loved ECHO!!!…read more We had been to a couple of their previous shows under the blue and white tent at Atlantic Station. And it's hard to compare. ECHO seemed more back to basics -- less gimmicks. The big change was that wee sat on the second row. The performers were literally near enough to touch. Wow. The show is great. The acts: jugglers, acrobats, gymnasts, slack line artists, clowns, catapult jumpers, trapeze artists, you name it -- are absolutely wonderful. A sense of wonderment comes over you as if you are a child again. The sound system is terrific and the live musicians and vocalists are impressive. The seats are a bit tight but perfectly fine for the duration of the show. Food is of course expensive as are all of the momentos for purchase. But you're at the most fabulous circus you've ever seen. My only complaint -- and it's out of the control of Cirque -- is exiting the Atlantic Station parking garage. Very slow. The stations to pay the parking fees didn't work so people had to pay one at a time at the actual exit. Miami, ECHO opens there February 22. Don't miss it.

    Finally a new show, this is my 5th year attending this Awesome French Circus and it was Amazing!!…read moreMy niece and I attended the noon show on Saturday, it was a nice crowd, the weather was nice but cold! We were so Excited to attend and can't wait until next year! The tent is located at Atlantic Station and you do pay to park, not pricey.

We arrived around 2:30 and was there until 9:00 pm for the taping of 2 shows. Not even a cracker was provided to eat! Cheap, ghetto and classless is what I call it! There is not even a vending machine. I never saw on any correspondence that taping would be that long and nothing to snack on available. Tyler Perry, Steve Harvey and Family Feud bring in toooo much money for not even a small pack of peanut butter crackers, a granola bar or even a 25 cent bag of chips to be served!!! I was totally disgusted and turned off by this because although it was a free taping----you wouldn't be able to do it without a live audience!! A little bit of appreciation for 7-8 hours of your time would have been nice. The staff seemed mean, over worked and underpaid. No smiles other than the production manager who had a curly natural fro ponytail. There was a heavyset black guy with a black winter beanie cap on that told my daughter the Smart Pop popcorn was for people who were there all day.! Well wtf do you call 2-9pm. Then to make matters worst, the staff and family members of the contestants are hot lunches in our faces. It was so classless! Steve Harvey and the hype man were so cool though and really provide for lots of laughs. Steve even left us on a spiritual note. He is definitely a natural comedian and speaker. Now that was a 5 star experience! Just Steve, hypeman, music, and the show itself 5 stars! The production company and the professionalism and hospitality of this place is a 3 and that's being nice. Overall, moving forward I would not recommend spending your precious off day setting around starving all day to see the show. I'll just watch from home but should you happen to read my review and go------ Eat a heavy meal before hand bc these cheap ass folks will not even provide a saltine cracker. If times are that hard they should just stop taping. I went to a few live taping and they at least provide light snacks via vending machine or free lay out. Despicable and changed the way I look at Tyler Perry Studios. Production company needs to get it together. Would never return and don't recommend!

    The show is awesome and Steve is so funny! I really enjoyed if you wonna laugh and gave a good time…read morethis is a good show to be able to attend is awesome

I went to see "The Color Purple" when it was in previews, and it ended up a Broadway hit. go see any show at the Alliance and it's a de facto preview of what will open and thrive on Great White Way.

My kid attends the Pnc story time. The space is amazing full of sensory and fun and the storyteller does an awesome job with engaging through music play and storytelling. I believe I enjoy it more than my child does at this point and it has become a hit for all of our Mom friends the ability to reserve the space and utilize it yourself for a playgroup or your own storytelling time is awesome as as well. I believe something like quarterly. They also provide you with a book to take home for your child which helps improve your child's library and diversifies it quite a bit because they also offer books in Spanish.

    Sunday nights at Northside Tavern with Uncle Sugar is the place to be! This is a dive bar that does…read morelive music every night. It seems to be a spot that locals go with pool going in the background and people drinking and hanging out. There's a decent selection of drinks from beers to cocktails to non-beer alternatives. The music was incredible, the place was decently crowded but we were able to get seats still, and it was a fun time all around. I'll definitely be coming back to hear Uncle Sugar again. There's paid parking right outside the tavern for $10, although it gets full quickly. However, there's free street parking on Sundays in the surrounding areas.

    So if you want to die bar with some live music then it's going to be your spot. Coming here you'll…read morehave to park somewhere, they have a small parking lot but at the same time if you don't find that parking available, are you going to go ahead and get it? How you live. You'll go through security and come in and it's pretty much a dive bar with really good vibes. They have R&B, jazz, blues, lot of different myriads of music types. So it may not look like it, but it's actually a really good spot. I would say you could go and use this to kick it and take a date or a double date situation. There. You could get some drinks, listen to some music, play some pool, it's all good. Now they don't have food like that, but there's a food truck outside and the food truck is actually pretty decent. I'm not going to lie, those wings were actually pretty good. But don't expect this spot to have food on the inside. I've been going in and out here for years so I don't have anything bad to say necessarily. Pick the night you want to go, and go on that night because it's going to be a lot of fun if you pick the right vibe and music you're looking for.

    Came here on a rainy night for some laughs. The location and parking lot is very sketchy and it…read morehelped that there was a parking attendant that night. There was an undeniable stench of marijuana throughout the place upon our entry and a puddle of water on the stairs leading to the basement. The bar is also located downstairs next to the room with the stage. There are a few tables scattered throughout but mostly stand alone chairs. There were about 8 comics total, ranging from funny to raunchy. Some I could relate to, some very hard to understand due to ghetto accents and slang. Overall not a bad show but we would have not ended up here if laughing skull hasn't sold out. Don't sit out front if you don't want to be picked on/made fun of.

I took a class here at Automatic Improv, and to say I felt immediately part of the family is an understatement. They are classy, funny, smart and entrepreneurial as somewhat of an upstart in Atlanta's improv field. During my graduation show I got to do a scene with Kevin where we were bouncers from New Jersey. THAT was a dream come true. ;) Follow the news on this company because they're gonna come back meaner, leaner and stronger than ever very soon.

    Went to see my first live performance this weekend and was blown away! What a cool feeling venue to…read morelisten to great music and enjoy some tasty beverages! 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.

They have bars set up everywhere, the down stairs has merch and food, and the sound is amazing. It is a small place so be prepared... it is more than just loud! My youngest needed ear plugs. The place is sooo cool though! Really an architectural marvel. Reminds me of a lower version of the Fox. But the concert was unreal here! I would go back and Will to see other concerts here for sure! Just a warning again though. It is very loud! I mean off the charts! I would bring ear plugs when I go again just to keep my hearing intact.
