    The Lynyrd Skynyrd album 'One More From The Road' was recorded at the Fabulous Fox Theatre in July of 1976. It was recorded as an effort to help save the Fox. Looks like it was a success.

    Go to Meehan's Public House Downtown before or after the show. It's just a walk away and the drinks are delicious! Cheers!

    Found great parking right at Ponce De Leon (just south of venue) - you can't beat close event parking for $15

    Arrive up to an hour before and make sure to use the bathroom 30 mins before the show is scheduled to start! The women's bathroom lines are insane!

    Using metal detector now.No guns mace or knives... disagree w/ no mace especially as a woman walking in Atlanta.homeless people walk right up to you after a show, so be alert. They should stop this.

    The theatre opened on December 25, 1929, just two months after the stock market crash. The Fox hosted the premiere of Walt Disney's Song of the South in 1946. Disney himself introduced the picture.

    Mary Mac's is right around the corner. Stop by before/after the show for a great, southern meal.

    An hour before almost every show there is an organ concert on the historic Moller organ. If you stand up front by the rail, you can give requests.

    Don't park in red lot, horrible getting out of. Buy a parking pass online much cheaper than paying onsite.
