Plan Your Visit

The Fox Tucson Theatre — hailed as the “Crown Jewel” of downtown — is a nationally acclaimed historic theater now evolving into a vibrant performing arts hub in the Southwest, spearheading the downtown’s revitalization and driving economic growth for the city.

If you have tickets to a show, you might as well make a night out of it! Here’s a list of some of our favorite spots within the vicinity of the Fox. Also, these are local spots open late enough for you visit later in the day since most of the shows at the Fox are in the evening.

Downtown revitalization means easy access to parking!

There is an abundance of public parking in the downtown area. Street parking is free after 5 pm and on weekends, and there are also a number of garages and parking lots within easy walking distance of the theatre. The closest lots are Old Pueblo (Congress between Scott and Stone) and La Placita (Stone and Jackson). For your convenience, we have a downloadable map that you can print out and bring with you to find the best parking spots available (the map is provided by the City of Tucson, www.tucsonaz.gov).

Ticketing and Will Call

The Fox Tucson Theater Box Office generally opens two hours prior to each performance. Each ticket has a unique barcode and only the first scan of the tickets will allow entry into the event. Keep your tickets in a safe place.

Will Call Tickets can be picked up anytime the Box Office is open. If coming to a show, there is no need to pick up your Will Call Tickets in advance – just come to the Will Call window when you arrive for the show, but feel free to give yourself a bit of extra time in case there is a line. Learn more about ticketing here.

Accessibility

Accessible seating for guests who require ADA accommodation is available in various locations and are all accessible by a wheelchair or walker. Learn more about the Fox’s accessibility here.
