Fox Theater

"This is one of the best live music venues in the Bay! I just checked out Cory Wong here. Talk about amazing!! Make sure to see a show here if you are visiting. If you are a local, you have to go at least once a year. Support Live Music!!!"

"A great place to see a show! Easy parking, even in a sold out show the crowd wasn't bad at all. Beautiful old theater. The don't make them like this anymore!"

"The fox theater is a stunning location for a music venue. The balcony is lovely, and gives a nice break from the usual crowded floor approach at concerts. Parking was much easier than expected, the staff was super friendly, and restrooms were very clean. Overall a great place to go!"

"Absolutely amazing theater right in downtown Oakland. Close to everything. Good food nearby. The venue itself is stunning both inside and out. I was there for a 3 night SCI run of shows. First night I was right down front on the rail. The 2nd night I was still on the main floor but back up about two levels dead center. NYE I was dead center up on the top balcony in the isle that runs across the middle. The sound and lights were perfect and sonically/visually amazing everywhere. The staff was helpful and friendly. I was also there to volunteer with Conscious Alliance for their food drive and the staff not only brought food donations of their own but were also super helpful to us. Honestly I can't think of one bad thing to say about this place 5 stars and A+++ all around. I would see another show there any night."

"Fox Theater is really cool and a nice place to see a band. I saw TV Girl there First, it is in downtown Oakland, but don't be afraid it's actually in a decent area. Also it has plenty of parking everywhere and the best part is that it is cheap! The huge parking garage near Fox has a deal with the theater, and you only pay $5! Other Pros: Good sound. Really could hear great at every angle of the theater. Awesome bathrooms. They are huge, clean and easy to access. Bars everywhere. So no trouble getting a drink. Easy in and out. Lots of doors and so you just walk out no worries. Merch line was long but went super quick. Think it was 10 minutes with a huge line which is great. The only real con and it is more of a "is what it is" the place is a big venue so if you want a more intimate concert this isn't happening. But again not a bad seat in the house."
