Saw a production of Chicago here and was not disappointed. I especially liked that they let you bring your drinks into theater, no more chugging your drink to finish before the end of intermission.
Fantastic entertainment and close to home. The theater is beautiful and centrally located in downtown Riverside.
We were just there for a premier of Up. There was a 20 minute intermission so my family and I went to the food lab to get a warm drink and get sweaters because it was extremely cold in the theater. Upon re-entering, we were checked again and but were told there is "no re-entry". Even after explaining our situation the guy told us "they told you at the door there is No re-entry" we let him know that there was NO one at the doors and they should have some there to let people know. We weren't the only people who walked out.....he was rude and repeated the same thing. We left, upset....I work in downtown and have been looking forward to visiting the Fox theater but now don't think we will return.
We went for the Disney Up! Movie Experience. It was ok. The theater is awesome, but they had an intermission about 40 minutes into the movie. It made us lose interest and we left early. You could hear the whole theater groan when they stopped the film and announced the intermission. The film is only about an hour and a half. Intermission is not necessary.
Great location, $5 parking garage, great seating, great viewing.
I purchased the upgraded "VIP" tickets back in September for a show. They were $40. The lady selling them outside of the theater said it was for an exclusive after party, pictures, the lounge, snacks and a bar. Well come to fund out the after party was free for everyone. The person selling the tickets said if you dont have a band you wont get into the after party. I was very disappointed. If i would have known that after party was free i would not have upgraded. Plus you had to pay for your drinks at the bar. I have tried calling since the beginning of October. I spoke to the manager of the VIP ticket sales today and she was very rude. She said i paid for the hors d oeuvers. Well that was some expensive cheese and crackers. They refused to refund my money. I willnot go back. So DONT EVER PURCHASE THE UPGRADED VIP TICKET!!! ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!!!
We were honored to be apart of the "Our Kids" Documentary. This was our first time in the FOX Theater and it was breath taking. Kids in Konflict
Nice place but rows of seats to narrow for getting in and out. $26.00 for two drinks and the bar was not fully stocked with what was needed for drinks
Good show. But was just on the first song when the 7.1 shake strike
Beautiful venue with excellent accessibility, acoustics and amenities. The architecture and design inside is beautiful and reminiscent of a bygone era.
Intimate is how I would describe this theatre. Parking and walking to and from couldn't be easier and plenty of eateries in a 3 block radius to fill up prior to a show.
Loved it.
The sound was on point.
Definitely will return.
Great looking old theater... sound of performance could barely hear and I'm not hard of hearing.. it was Tuesday night of Chorus Line.. if tickets were less out wouldn't be a big deal.. but over $200 for two tickets...wholly moley... what a waste!!
This is a nice clean old venue, seating is tight though and once you are seated it's not easy to get out. I gave four stars because they really gouge you on concessions, $15 for a special tiny Mai Tai really?
WONDERFUL ATMOSPHERE,GOOD ..BANTERING, SING ALONG AND INTERMISSION . WOULD DEFINITELY GO AGAIN. CHILDHOOD MEMORIES AND NEW ADULT MEMORIES CREATED
Lot of fun. Went on a Sunday, so parking was easy enough. Looking forward to seeing the next concert there.
A wonderful facility to enjoy a variety of entertainment
If you order a drink upstairs, be prepared to PAY UP!!! $19 for a double? The venue is excellent though!
Took my wife to watch a show here. Nice place. Every seat seemed like it would have a great view. Nice to have a place close to home to enjoy some great entertainment.
Nice cozy venue. Parking was a little bit of a challenge so arrive about an hour before the event.
I loved the concert the place was really nice, but parking lot was very limited, we have to park like three blocks away from the Fox performance center.
It was convenient but they lacked more publicity for the event and the concert started really late but the artist did a good job.
Such a beautiful building inside and out, we had fun watching a performance here! They have a well stocked bar!
Lovely place. Not too big not too small. Seats comfortable. Could be a little bigger for ample sized people as myself.
Food stands are too slow, need more usher's to direct ,and make lines.
Drinks are a little pricey but good place to see a concert or show
Those seats are so uncomfortable but the show was good.
Bands were great. Bad venue for handicap! Only 3 spaces on two none on three. Spaces way too far from box office.
Wonderful staff and beautiful place to see performances. We saw Leslie Odom Jr. Here and it was spectacular.
Went to a Beatles v Stones battle. Was really nice inside, great seating and views. Drinks are kind of pricey, but that's to be expected.
Excellent theatre and the Brit Floyd concert was amazing!
Great, beautiful and historical building. Most people don't this but the Riverside Fox theatre was the first theatre to screen "Gone with the Wind", before it's Hollywood premiere
The seats are NARROW and for this plus sizers woman a three hour event was on the brink of painful
It is a very beautiful venue, I've never been there before and it was a great place to see such a great performer likes George thorogood.
We went to see comedian Bill Burr here (he gets one star). The acoustics were great, and the theatre is pretty. It was uncomfortably warm, and every time someone needed to go by to get to their seat or leave (which was an inordinate amount of times because the rows are very long with only a couple of breaks in between so anyone in the middle had to walk all the way to the end to get out) we would have to literally stand up so that they could squeeze by. It happened at least 5 times!
There were no large screens showing close-ups of what was happening on stage, so we missed facial expressions or silent actions. I honestly can't recall the last large venue that I went to that didn't have at least one large screen, with a camera. I think it might've been sometime in the '90s?. Even all of the churches have them now...
We had to leave the venue at the end and go to a nearby bar in order to find a bathroom. The line for the MEN'S room was scrolling out of the door at Fox! The men's room! That never happens.
So, large, pretty theatre. It is not built to comfortably accommodate all of the people that they pack in there.
L VE going to this place, my favorite is the VIP treatment always a blast, this time went to watch the Rocky Horror Picture Show ... it was Awesome, the crowd was well behaved, the participation was phenomenal, which made GREAT
Beautifully restored, small theater. Great place to see a show. Sufficient bar and restroom facilities that there weren't really any lines.
Awesome place. Been there with my sister in law. She's awesome too!!
Wow Derek and Julieann Hough at Fox performing arts center in Riverside
The best Fox theatre. Proud and friendly staff. Had a great time listening to Joe Rogan and laughing until my stomach hurt.
Very beautiful venue, near restaurants, easy to find, has a smoking patio and polite, knowledgeable staff.
Awesome place for a show first time to this spot saw toots and the maytals great show had a great time
Reuben sings Luther Vandross was awesome! However, parking garage system slow and frustrating. Concession bar even slower.
Perfect place to see a concert. Small intimate venue with seating area. Drinks are always great.
Nice theater with limited parking and for the particular show I attended, Carlos Rivera, criminal lighting with two strong light panels shining straight into the audience almost the entire concert.
Very nice well kept historic theater will come to another event here
Great Venue Spike and Mike's was amazing as always! Thank you Fox for hosting.
Love it here. The actors for the musicals are amazing. They work so hard and are extremely funny.
