Out n about on Sunday & many shops closed. The few open where very quiet. On the plus side, a bit of peace & quiet is good.
Construction underway so had to walk all the way around
Fox Studios is a great place for events, here's a tip straight away, your GPS will likely take you to a big carpark on the southern end. Don't rush back to your car after a big event, and if you do plan ahead, park near the exit or at least near the 'down' ramps so you can get out of there fast. Pre paid tickets before you get back to your car will also save you lining up for the machine. Now the area is great with lots of places for food, before and after and the bowling and cinema make for a night just on their own. the markets I've been to here were not the greatest, nor was the comedy nights when it was not a headline act. It still is a great place for when the big shows setup and hence I've marked it as "ok" because any other time its a ghost town.
This place is an only if you have a reason to be there location. Dullsville
With all that this site could have become, it's a little bit meh. But then, that's kinda what Fox Studios have become innit? Legacy entertaintment quarter. Pricey outlets who no doubt get hammered on rent. See a movie. Get drunk. Shop. Eat. Keep an eye out for special events, which liven the place up. Also check out the markets... monthly... Locally sourced fresh food and organic and locally made. Kids facilities.
Fox Studios are great for a good night out, whether you go to the movies, to a nice restaurant, a comedy night or a concert - there's heaps of possibilities. For some reason I always get a bit lost when trying to find a certain venue but that's just me. Great range of food, shops and entertainment and lots of parking space in the car park. Most important thing that needs to be improved: Access to public transport because there are only a few busses to catch and that involves a fair bit of walking too (very unhandy in rainy nights)!
We did a bus tour of Sydney which took in Fox Studios. I was quite surprised at how basic and unexciting the site seemed.
